Vishay Beyschlag CMB 0207 High Pulse Load MELF Resistor is a special MELF resistor with advanced pulse load capability, which is the perfect choice for the protection of circuitry with signal and mains input lines from surge pulses. The resistors are also suitable for circuits exposed to high levels of electromagnetic interference or electro-static discharge. The applications are in all fields of automotive, telecommunication, industrial and medical equipment.
The CMB 0207 is a speciality MELF resistor with advanced pulse‑load capability, a carbon‑film element on a high‑grade ceramic body, and four‑band colour coding. It offers up to 10 kV or 17 kW single‑pulse capability, ESD protection of 16 kV (Human Body Model), and is compatible with lead‑free soldering processes.
The resistor is suited for automotive, telecommunication, industrial and medical equipment. It complies with IEC safety standards, RoHS, and other EU directives, and is supplied in blister‑tape reels with detailed 12NC part numbering.
