Surface mount chip resistors are available in three different terminal
styles for either RF or DC applications, such as bias voltage dropping
or heaters. Terminal Style A has a full backside metallization for direct
attachment to a heat sink or an item to be heated. Terminal Style B has
wrap-around divider for low power SMT applications. Terminal Style C
has a split ground that allows it be mounted as a resistor or termination.
This style provides a larger ground area for increased heat dissipation
and is an excellent choice for high power SMT applications.
