ESH2D-E3/5BT datasheet by Vishay Semiconductors

ESH2D-E3/5BT Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended storage temperature range for ESH2D-E3/5BT?
  The recommended storage temperature range for ESH2D-E3/5BT is -40°C to 125°C, as per Vishay's general guidelines for metal film resistors.
• Can I use ESH2D-E3/5BT in high-frequency applications?
  While ESH2D-E3/5BT is suitable for general-purpose applications, it's not recommended for high-frequency applications (>100 kHz) due to its metal film construction, which may introduce parasitic inductance and capacitance.
• How do I handle ESH2D-E3/5BT during soldering to prevent damage?
  To prevent damage during soldering, ensure the component is exposed to a maximum temperature of 260°C for 10 seconds or less, and use a soldering iron with a temperature range of 200°C to 240°C. Avoid using excessive force or bending the leads.
• Is ESH2D-E3/5BT suitable for automotive applications?
  While ESH2D-E3/5BT meets the general requirements for automotive applications, it's essential to verify its compliance with specific automotive standards (e.g., AEC-Q200) and ensure it meets the required temperature range, vibration, and reliability requirements.
• Can I use ESH2D-E3/5BT in humid or high-moisture environments?
  ESH2D-E3/5BT is not designed for use in humid or high-moisture environments. If exposure to moisture is unavoidable, consider using a conformal coating or potting the component to prevent moisture ingress.
