RESISTOR TRIMMING 

 

For System Integration and Shop Service: Laser Resistor Trimming of Thick- and Thin-Film Hybrid Microelectronic Devices

ACTIVE AND PASSIVE

Large board thick film resistor trimming is a specialty of Laserod. Board sizes to 24″ x 24″ or 36″ x 24″ are easily handled. Upon job completion, Laserod will provide you with Excel graphs that indicate your initial and final trim values for your comparison.

The precision equipment delivers a trim accuracy as high as 0.1%, a measuring accuracy of 100 ppm, and a range between 0.1 ohm to 1 Gigohm.

PASSIVE TRIMMING

Involves removal of material from a resistor to increase its resistance. The resistance or voltage parameter is monitored across the component contacts.

ACTIVE TRIMMING

Involves removal of material from a resistor to change a circuit parameter. Also called functional trimming, because the circuit is functioning during the trimming process. Parameters monitored are ACV, DCV, ACI, DCI, PERIOD, FREQUENCY.
