Holsworthy, a British-based company, initially produced film circuitry and was acquired by Meggitt PLC in 1985. The purchase increased Meggitt’s sales by 75 percent. Holsworthy offers high-quality electronic component products, such as Potentiometers, Resistors and Inductors. The Holsworthy range of precision resistors meets the requirement for economically priced components for both industrial and military applications. In SMD and leaded packages, with tolerances down to 0.05% and TCRs as low as 5ppm, the Holsworthy range from TE Connectivity delivers the “Complete Precision Portfolio”.
Meggitt Electronic Components (MEC) was acquired by TE Connectivity in 2001, and products formerly branded as Meggitt are now part of TE Connectivity. Holsworthy precision resistors are designed to meet the requirement for economically priced components for both industrial and military applications. Holsworthy precision resistors for SMD and leaded packages are available with tolerances down to 0.05% and TCRs as low as 5ppm. Holsworthy (Holco) portfolio of precision resistors includes thin film resistors (metal film resistors), wirewound resistors, and thick film resistors. These are available in both surface mount and leaded styles, ranging from small 0402 size chip resistors to 14 watt leaded devices, combining precision technologies and requirements for power in a variety of products.
The company expanded its products to include precision resistors as well as hybrid circuits and passive components for many applications in medical equipment and high accuracy instrumentation.
Now part of the TE Connectivity brands, the Holsworthy MRS series is an entirely new chip network utilising nickel chrome sputtering on high purity alumina. This network has been designed for high volume applications and is offered with 4 isolated resistors on a single substrate (12.06 sizes) at 0.1% with convex terminals. A wide value range and available TCR’s make this a most versatile resistor solution.
