Fixed resistors for use in electronic equipment - Part 2: Sectional specification: Low-power film resistors with leads for through-hole assembly on circuit boards (THT)

This part of IEC 60115 is applicable to fixed low-power film resistors with termination leads for use in electronic equipment, which are typically assembled in through-hole technology (THT) on circuit boards. These resistors are typically described according to types (different geometric shapes) and styles (different dimensions) and product technology. The resistive element of these resistors is typically protected by a conformal lacquer coating. These resistors have wire terminations and are primarily intended to be mounted on a circuit board in through-hole technique. The object of this standard is to prescribe preferred ratings and characteristics and to select from IEC 60115-1, the appropriate quality assessment procedures, tests and measuring methods and to give general performance requirements for this type of resistor. Since the documents of the 60115-X series are exempted from the parallel procedure (D162/C089), this New Work Item Proposal aims to endorse the main IEC document IEC 60115-2:2023 as a European standard. The standard shall be published together with the finalised Common Modifications.

Overview

SIST EN IEC 60115-2:2026/A11:2026 is a European standard published by CENELEC (CLC) that addresses fixed, low-power film resistors with wire leads for through-hole technology (THT) applications in electronic equipment. This document serves as a sectional specification, which outlines the essential requirements, ratings, and quality assessment procedures for these resistors, ensuring their suitability for reliable use in circuit board assembly. The standard consolidates best practices for resistor types defined by geometric shapes, styles, and protective coatings, and harmonizes European regulations with the main IEC 60115-2:2023 international standard, including relevant common modifications and cross-references.

Key Topics

  • Scope: Covers fixed low-power film resistors with leads intended for THT assembly on printed circuit boards.
  • Types and Styles: Specifies resistor variants categorized by geometric configuration and dimensional characteristics.
  • Protection: Details the use of conformal lacquer coatings that safeguard resistive elements.
  • Termination: Focuses on resistors with wire terminations designed for through-hole mounting.
  • Preferred Ratings and Characteristics: Defines standardized ratings, tolerances, and performance parameters for consistency across the industry.
  • Quality Assessment and Testing:
    • Selects appropriate procedures from IEC 60115-1 for quality evaluation.
    • Includes guidelines for tests such as solderability, resistance to soldering heat, environmental testing (vibration, temperature, etc.), and dimensional measurement.
  • Cross-References: Incorporates updated references to previous versions and existing standards, ensuring clarity in technical documentation.
