Vishay's key markets are automotive electronics, industrial, and high-end wireless interconnection. The industrial market includes alternative energy sources (such as solar and wind) and control units for large and medium-sized motor drives. Thomas Bluhm, senior director of product marketing for the company's Draloric / Beyschlag resistance product line, said that new or more stringent application requirements are reflected in: better pulse load endurance, higher rated power, higher rated voltage, smaller TCR and tolerances, exhaust gas tolerance and reliability are higher. For resistance manufacturers, the main challenge comes from controlling product costs, because improving product performance requires strengthening production management and using more advanced raw materials. Vishay's latest products include ultra-high precision thin film chip and MELF resistors with TCR as low as 2ppm / K and tolerances as low as 0.02%, high voltage thick films with a rated voltage of 1000V, thin film and MELF resistors, and double the rated power , Series resistance with higher exhaust gas resistance.
