Vishay Intertechnology releases TSM3 series of miniature, sealed multi-turn SMD trimmers in compact 3 mm x 4 mm x 4 mm footprint feature IP67 sealing and high temperature operation to +150C for harsh environments.
Vishay Intertechnology introduces a new series of multi-turn, surface-mount cermet trimmers.
Designed for space- constrained industrial, consumer, and telecom applications in harsh environments, the TSM3 series devices combine a compact 3 mm by 4 mm by 4 mm footprint with a wide temperature range of -65 C to +150 C and IP67 sealing.
- Offer a 25 % smaller case size and wider operating temperature range than previous-generation devices
- Allows for fine tuning of its wide resistance range
- Features a faster setting to time ratio than single-turn trimmers
- Supports automated PCB assembly and setting processes, enhancing production efficiency to save time and lower costs
The new TSM3 SMD trimmers applications include setting reference voltage in power supplies, tuning the frequency of oscillators, and adjusting the sensitivity of sensors for automation controls in welding and cooling systems; robotics; power tools; smoke detectors; radios or precision testing instrumentation.
