(3)
Maximum is 1.0 % A.Q.L. standard for all specifications except TCR. (For TCR information, see notes 4 and 5.) “Typical” is a designers
reference which represents that 85 % of the lots supplied, over a long period of time, will be at least the figure shown or better.
(4)
Maximum TCR applies to the 3
σ
(sigma) limit or 99.73 % of a production lot. (Measured end-to-end with wiper off the element.)
(5)
Measurements of TCR through the wiper are influenced more by setting stability and the percentage of the total/resistance in use (at the wiper)
than by fundamental resistance change due to temperature alone. The parameter shown in table 2 is a 2 s distribution typifying the behavior
of the device when used with 40 % or more of the total resistance in use.
