Overview
Title:  Resistor, Fixed, Film (Insulated), Nonestablished Reliability, and Established Reliability, General Specification for
Scope:  This specification covers the general requirements for nonestablished reliability (non-ER) and established reliability (ER), insulated, film, fixed resistors. These resistors are capable of full load operation at an ambient temperature of 70OC and have a resistance temperature characteristic of 100 parts per million (ppm) and 350 ppm per degree Celsius (ppm/OC). The ER resistors have life failure rate (FR) levels ranging from 1.0 percent to 0.001 percent per 1,000 hours (see 1.2.1.4). These FR levels are established at a 60 percent confidence level on the basis of life tests. Designers are CAUTIONED on using these resistors in high power pulse applications (see 6.13.2).
