Vishay / Dale MSM & MSM Long Lead Thick-Film Resistor Networks

Vishay / Dale MSM and MSM Long Lead Thick-Film Resistor Networks are MIL-PRF-83401-qualified thick-film resistor networks offering low- and high-temperature performance (-55°C to +125°C). The Vishay / Dale MSM and MSM Long Lead feature a wide resistance range (10Ω to 1MΩ) and tight tolerances down to 1%. The resistors are constructed using thick-film resistive elements with hot-solder dipped leads.
