PF1220 Series
Precision Foil Power Resistors
Riedon's TO-220 precision foil resistors satisfy demanding applications for high accuracy and
stable power resistors housed in the convenient TO-220 case. The PF1220聮s Nichrome foil resistance
element makes a wide resistance range available. It is bonded to an Al

substrate ensuring excellent
power dissipation and stability. Careful choice of materials and rugged construction ensure a reliable
component, and the very small tolerance and temperature coefficient provide high precision in difficult
applications.
