SIL09E103G

Resistor Networks, Arrays

The SIL09E103G is a member of a family of resistor networks and arrays available from major semiconductor manufacturers. The SIL09E103G is a nine-resistor, three-terminal voltage divider array. The SIL09E103G is intended for use in precision applications and is designed with a maximum input voltage of 12V. The SIL09E103G is an ideal solution for dividing a higher input voltage into several precise and equal parts.

Applications

The SIL09E103G is mainly used in precision applications where a higher input voltage needs to be divided into several parts precisely. The SIL09E103G is specifically designed to provide equal and precise voltage division for measuring, monitoring and controlling purposes. The SIL09E103G is mainly used in medical equipment, instrumentation, precision power supplies, control systems, distribution systems, and general industrial applications.

Working Principle

The SIL09E103G will not operate properly until a certain voltage is applied, usually 12V or higher. When the input voltage is applied across the three terminals of the SIL09E103G, each resistor will draw a portion of the available current, thereby creating equal voltage drops at each resistor. This allows nine precisely-calculated parts of the input voltage to be measured. The SIL09E103G works as a voltage divider circuit because of its internal circuitry.

Resistance Values

The SIL09E103G is available in seven resistance values, from 2ohm to 100ohm, to fit different circuit designs. The SIL09E103G can also be cascaded for higher voltage divisions when connected in series. The resistance tolerance is usually 5%.

Other Considerations

The SIL09E103G has an operating temperature range of -55°C to +125°C and an operating lifetime of over 10 years. The SIL09E103G is also designed to withstand ESD events (electrostatic discharges) up to 8kV. The SIL09E103G is designed to operate without any external components; however, additional circuitry may be required in some applications.

Conclusion

The SIL09E103G resistor network and array is a useful electrical component that can be used for precision applications that require high voltage divider performance. The SIL09E103G is available in seven different resistance values and is designed to operate over a wide temperature range. The SIL09E103G is designed to withstand ESD events up to 8kV and requires no external components for operation.
