scope:

This sectional specification prescribes the preferred values for characteristics and ratings and also the inspection requirements for fixed surface mount resistors of assessed quality. These resistors generally have metallised connecting pads and are intended to be mounted directly on to substrates, for example hybrid integrated circuits or printed boards. It selects from the generic specification, EN 60115-1, the appropriate methods of test to be used in detail specifications derived from this specification. Associated with this specification are one or more blank detail specifications each referenced by an EN number. A blank detail specification which has been completed as specified in 1.2 of this specification forms a detail specification. Such detail specifications may be used for the grant of qualification approval to a resistor and for the performance of quality conformance inspection in accordance with the CECC system.
