Tempco 1K 3300 ppm

Tempco 1K 3300 ppm

2010-05-02 by peter_ivens

Hello,

i am searching for a supplier for the 1K 1% 3300 ppm tempco as used in the MOTM-440 & 485.

Can somebody show me the way?

Thank you,

Peter

My 2 beads: Ask Mr Shreiber (Paul) - or Bridechamber.  If you need help with some of the caps, etc, I can take a look at the BOM, etc later this PM and suggest part numbers - they keep shifting.  Let me know.  Will

Yes but they don't mention a temp. coeff. nor do they refere to MOTM under the item so i think it is another coeff.
(Miquel, sorry for the three replies my mistake)

Anything with "+3300" or "+3500" in the PPM/K column should do.

Hey André,

i am familiar with your website. A tempco with a temp. coeff. of 3500 , 1K 1%, is not so difficult to find. Most moduls of MOTM use a tempco of 3500 ppm (like the MOTM-300) but in the BOM for the 440 & 485 there is specified 1K 1% 3300 ppm. 
Elby design delivers a second resitor to lower the temp. coeff. but then you can take also a tempco with a tolerance of 5% from Tyco. 
So that is the reason why I ask around for 1K 1% 3300 ppm tempco's.
If it doesn't matter that much I shall use one of 3500 ppm

Peter

I don't think it matters much. The tempco of the circuit is
an approximation anyway, because there are other sources of error
than the transistor pair. And so is the tempco of the actual
resistor because it varies with temperature (and possibly from
device to device).

If anything, it's preferable to have a resistor with too high a
tempco because you can always reduce it by wiring an ordinary
metal film resistor in parallel (metal film resistors have tempcos
like 50 or 100 PPM/K).

Check Ian Fritz's "dial-a-tempco" page for a really refined
treatment.

Tycos are cheap but aren't they 3000 PPM/K ? The Akaneohm sound
like a much better deal. Or the Panasonic SMT if you're prepared
to some kludgery.

I found a datasheet on the Tyco website which refers to two types with a temp coeff. of 3000 and 3300 ppm.

André, en tout cas merci pour l' info ...

Here is a US source for temperature compensating resistors:

http://www.precisionresistor.com/pt146-25w-custom-tcr-temperature-sensitive-wire-wound-axial-pr-34.html

I have purchased from them in the past but that was a number of years ago. Their product was an excellent performer for VCOs. I suggest the PT-146 and you can buy direct for $4.50 each (quantity 1). The PT-146 is always a stock item so no long wait to get your parts.

No, I have no connection with this company. I don't know of a European vendor ... sorry.

I think Synthtech uses KRL Bantry tempcos but I do not have a part number for them.
