Charcroft Z-Foil Resistors for Audio
|
| |
We all know the amazing Vishay range of bulk foils, we know have something much better - the CAR resistor. Composed of Vishay’s Bulk Metal™ Z-foil technology, with improved sound quality, provides a combination of low
noise and low inductance/capacitance, making it unrivalled for
applications requiring low noise and distortion-free properties.
these special "naked
Z-foil resistor" design without case or encapsulation, adds an
additional dimension for reducing signal distortion and increasing
clarity in signal processing. These resistors are hand made in the UK. You may feel they carry a high price tag, but decerning DIYers do not think twice about spending similar amounts on capacitors. Well resistors are just as important. Hi-fi Collective are proud to be the first to bring you the amaizing Charcroft Audio Resistor.
specification:
- Temperature coefficient of resistance (TCR)
- 55°C to + 125°C, 25°C ref.:± 0.2 ppm/°C typical
- Rated power: to 0.4 W at + 70°C
- Tolerance: to ± 0.1 %
- Resistance range: 10ohm to 100K
- Non inductive, non capacitive design
- Non hot spot design
- Current noise: < - 40 dB
- Rise time: 1 ns without ringing
- Electrostatic discharge (ESD) above 25 000 V
These resistors are perfect as INPUT "load" resistors for our huge range of stepped attenuators. Have a read of this article by Neville Roberts where he compares different resistors at the load position.
