PCN-DR-003-2016 Change in assembly site; form, fit, function for CPSM series
DESCRIPTION OF CHANGE: The manufacturing location is being changed from Juarez, Mexico to a subcontracted location in Asia, though the trim/form operation will still be performed in the Juarez, Mexico facility. Resistance values above 100 ohms will have a metal oxide resistive material in lieu of a wirewound resistive material (maximum resistance value for CPSM03 will be 100 ohms and for CPSM05 will be 33k ohms). E-24 decade values will be standard resistance values available, although others may be available upon request.
CLASSIFICATION OF CHANGE: Assembly Site, Form Fit Function
REASON FOR CHANGE: Due to space constraints and other ongoing business operations, some of the equipment required to build this product is being removed. Those parts of the operation being affected by this change will
be subcontracted.
EXPECTED INFLUENCE ON QUALITY/RELIABILTY/PERFORMANCE: Performance will be similar aside from the differences noted in cross-reference file: http://www.vishay.net/files/Cross-Reference%20Data%20-%20PCN-DR-
003-2016%20Rev%200.pdf.
