Entering 299C Fixed Resistors
The following table describes the part parameters required for fixed resistors when 299C is the selected calculation model. The 299C model supports all but the following subcategories of fixed resistors:
General
Surface Mount
Parameter
Type
Description
Foreign
Checkbox [Parts Count also]
Indicates whether the device is made in China. If this checkbox is selected, the failure rate of the part is calculated based on Appendix A for the 299C Parts Count or Parts Stress model chosen.
Type
Choice List [Parts Count also]
Required only for the following subcategories of fixed resistors: Chassis Mount, WW Power (RE, RER); Film (RL, RLR, RN, RNR, and RM); Lead Mount, WW Power (RW, RWR), and Thermistor (RTH).
The type of device. Choices vary by subcategory.
Secondary Type
Choice List [Parts Count also]
Required only for the Thermistor subcategory when Foreign is selected and the type is Heat Sensitive.
The subtype of the device. Choices are:
Bar
Bead
Disc
Polymer PTC
Quality Level
Choice List [Parts Count also]
The appropriate quality screening level of the device. Accepted quality levels and values for fixed resistors follow. For the quality value assigned to a specific fixed resistor, see Chinese Standard GJB/z 299C.
A1L = 0.05 (for Metallized Film [RL, RLR, RN, RNR, and RM] fixed resistors only)
A1W = 0.10
A2 = 0.30
B1 = 0.60
B2 = 1.00
C = 4.00 or 5.00
Resistance
Real
Not required for the following subcategories of fixed resistors: Network Film (RZ) and Thermistor (RTH).
The resistance value of the device. This parameter is used in conjunction with Units to enter the resistance value.
Units
Choice List
Not required for the following subcategories of fixed resistors: Network Film (RZ) and Thermistor (RTH).
The units for the Resistance value. Choices are:
ohm
Kohm (ohm * 1000)
Mohm (ohm * 1E6)
Rated Temperature
Choice List
Required only for the Film (RL, RLR, RN, RNR, and RM) subcategory of fixed resistors when the type is Metallized Film. Not required when Foreign is selected.
The rated operating temperature of the fixed resistor. Choices are 705 and 125.
Resistor Quantity
Integer
Not required for the Thermistor (RTH) subcategory of fixed resistors.
The number of Network Film (RZ) fixed resistors in use. Do not include Network Film (RZ) fixed resistors that are not used.
