The recommended storage temperature for M32159B04MS3 is -40°C to +125°C, as per Vishay's general guidelines for metal film resistors.
Yes, the M32159B04MS3 is resistant to sulfurization due to its metal film construction and passivation layer, which provides protection against sulfur-containing atmospheres.
While the M32159B04MS3 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.
The power rating of the M32159B04MS3 decreases with increasing temperature. For example, at 70°C, the power rating is approximately 75% of the rated power, and at 125°C, it's around 50% of the rated power.
Yes, the M32159B04MS3 is compatible with both wave soldering and reflow soldering, but it's essential to follow Vishay's recommended soldering profiles to avoid damage to the component.
