Vishay Intertechnology-s New 4-Terminal, 1 W Surface-Mount Power Metal Strip(R) Resistor Is Industry-s First in 0612 Package Size With Resistance Range From 0.5 to 5 Milliohms

MALVERN, PA — (Marketwire) — 09/01/11 — Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. (NYSE: VSH) today introduced a new surface-mount Power Metal Strip® resistor that is the industry-s first 4-terminal, 1 W current sensing resistor in the compact 0612 package size to offer a very low resistance range from 0.5 to 5 milliohms.The small size of the WSK0612 resistor allows it to replace larger current sensing resistors, saving space on the circuit board that in turn will enable creation of smaller and ligh
