Thin film chip component trim system.


TrimSmart W778 thin film chip component trim system is optimized specifically for use in adjusting the resistive resistive /re·sis·tive/ (re-zis´tiv) pertaining to or characterized by resistance.  values of the latest generation of thin film chip resistors and resistor networks. The new system provides a combination of laser pulse width, wavelength and spot size that addresses issues specific to thin-film chip components. The trimmer trimmer
