About this manual

The MCT 0603 AT, MCU 0805 AT and MCA 1206 AT series are professional automotive thin‑film chip resistors designed for demanding electronics in automotive, telecommunication, medical and industrial equipment. They feature a high operating temperature of 175 °C, superior moisture resistance and AEC‑Q200 qualification.

Key specifications include resistance ranges from 100 Ω to 270 kΩ, tight tolerance options (±1 % or ±0.5 %), low temperature coefficients (±25 ppm/K to ±50 ppm/K), and rated power up to 500 mW for the 1206 size. The devices meet RoHS, IEC and EN test standards and are supplied on paper tape or reel for automated SMD assembly.
