Temperature Coefficient of Resistance (TCR) Calculation Tool

Temperature Coefficient of Resistance (TCR) Calculation Tool

①Enter the resistance value to be checked
②Enter the + and - values of the temperature coefficient of resistance to be checked.
 Please refer to the respective product datasheet for the temperature coefficient of resistance.
*For example, in the case of 1Ω ESR01, enter 500 for the + side and 250 for the - side.

③Enter the reference temperature for resistance measurement.
The standard reference temperature is typically 20°C or 25°C.
④Enter the minimum temperature of the operating environment to be checked
⑤Enter the maximum temperature of the operating environment to be checked
⑥After entering all of the information above (① to ⑤), click Calculate

After carrying out all of the above steps from ① to ⑥, the screen will appear as shown above
By moving the below the graph to the left or right, you can check the fluctuation in the resistance value at a certain temperature within the specified temperature range.

This example shows that a 1Ω product can swing to a maximum of 1.018Ω and a minimum of 0.9911Ω when the resistor temperature is 60°C.
