NOTES:
1. Maximum is 1.0% A. Q.L. standard for all specifications except
TCR. Typical is a designers reference which represents that
85% of the units supplied, over a long period of time, will be at
least the figure shown or better.
2. Whichever is lower.
3. Heat sink chassis dimensions and requirements per
MIL-R-39009/1B:
Dimension Inches mm
L 6.00 152.4
W 4.00 101.6
H 2.00 50.8
T 0.04 1.0
4. Inductance (L) due mainly to the leads.
5. The resolution limit of existing test equipment (within the
measurement capability of the equipment, “essentially zero”).
6. µV/°C relates to EMF due to lead temperature difference.

HOW TO ORDER VPR220 AND VPR221 PARTS:
Specify Vishay VPR220 or VPR221 resistors as follows:
Example: VPR221 5R0000 1.0%
Model No. Resistance Value Tolerance
Specify Vishay VPR220S or VPR221S for surface mount
resistors as follows:
Example: VPR221S 5R0000 1.0%
Model No. Resistance Value Tolerance
Resistance value, in ohms, is expressed by a series of 6 characters, 5 of which
represent significant digits while the 6th is a dual purpose letter that designates
both the multiplier and the location of the comma or decimal.
