Vishay Dale CRCW0603422RFKEA 422 ohm 0603 SMD Resistors 85 PCS

Genuine Vishay Dale CRCW0603422RFKEA thick-film surface-mount chip resistors, supplied as one lot containing 85 pieces from original DigiKey distributor-labeled stock.

These miniature 0603 SMD resistors feature a nominal resistance of 422 ohm, ±1% tolerance, and a 0.125W (1/8W) power rating.

Part of Vishay's D/CRCW e3 series, these resistors provide accurate fixed resistance for compact electronic assemblies, industrial equipment, automotive electronics, and component-level circuit-board repair.

The CRCW0603422RFKEA features a temperature coefficient of ±100 ppm/°C, an operating temperature range of -55°C to +155°C, and AEC-Q200 automotive qualification.

The standard 0603 (1608 Metric) surface-mount package measures approximately 1.55 × 0.85 mm, with a maximum seated height of 0.50 mm.

The resistor uses thick-film construction with two surface-mount terminations and a rated operating voltage of 75V, subject to power-dissipation limits.

Typical applications include voltage-divider networks, transistor bias circuits, signal conditioning, feedback networks, current-limiting circuits, industrial control boards, automotive electronics, communications equipment, instrumentation, and PCB repair.

The original DigiKey distributor label is dated September 27, 2019, identifies Israel as the country of origin, and confirms RoHS3 compliance.

HISTORICAL BACKGROUND:

Vishay Intertechnology was founded in 1962 by Felix Zandman and developed into a major international manufacturer of passive electronic components and discrete semiconductors.

The Vishay Dale product family includes fixed resistors, precision resistors, power resistors, and specialty resistance components used in industrial electronics, communications systems, automotive equipment, and electronic instrumentation.

Thick-film resistor technology became an important advancement in the miniaturization of electronic components. The manufacturing process involves applying a resistive composition to a ceramic substrate, allowing reliable fixed-resistance components to be produced economically.

As electronic equipment became smaller and automated surface-mount assembly became widespread, miniature chip resistors increasingly replaced larger through-hole components in many circuit designs.

The 0603 package became a standard component size because it offers a practical balance between compact dimensions, automated assembly compatibility, and electrical power-handling capability.

Vishay's D/CRCW e3 series includes thick-film surface-mount resistors designed for general-purpose and automotive electronic applications.

The CRCW0603422RFKEA provides 422 ohm nominal resistance with ±1% tolerance and a 0.125W power rating in the miniature 0603 package.

Its AEC-Q200 qualification supports use in appropriately designed automotive electronic assemblies, while its resistance accuracy makes it useful in feedback networks, voltage dividers, signal-conditioning circuits, and electronic control systems.

The original DigiKey distributor packaging is dated September 27, 2019, documenting the stock history of these components.

The packaging identifies Israel as the country of origin, reflecting Vishay's established electronic component manufacturing operations in that country.
