Résistances fixes utilisées dans les équipements électroniques - Partie 1: Spécification générique
L'IEC 60115-1:2020 est une spécification générique et s'applique aux résistances fixes utilisées dans les équipements électroniques. Elle définit les termes normalisés, les procédures d'examen et les méthodes d'essai utilisés dans les spécifications intermédiaires et particulières des composants électroniques dans le cadre de l'assurance qualité, ainsi qu'à d'autres fins. Cette édition contient les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport à l'édition précédente:
cette 5e édition s'appuie sur une nouvelle structure de document, dans laquelle les essais du précédent Article 4 sont désormais présentés de l'Article 6 à l'Article 12, avec une Annexe X informative donnant des références croisées vers la version précédente de la présente norme;
les termes et définitions ont été révisés et amendés, complétés par une nouvelle section relative aux technologies en matière de résistance et une nouvelle section relative aux niveaux de classification des produits;
un nouveau Paragraphe 4.7 relatif aux recommandations en matière de remplacements admis a été ajouté;
les dispositions en matière d'emballage, de stockage et de transport de 4.8, 4.9 et 4.10 ont été intégralement révisées;
un nouveau Paragraphe 5.3 relatif aux tolérances par défaut pour la plupart des paramètres d'essai habituels a été ajouté;
la méthode générique de résistance de mesure (5.6 désormais) a été séparée de l'essai pour des raisons de conformité avec une valeur de résistance spécifiée en 6.1, en révision du précédent 4.5;
l'essai de coefficient de température de résistance de 6.2 est une révision du précédent essai de 4.8 (Variation de la résistance avec la température), des concessions particulières sur les résistances inférieures à 10 Ω ayant été consenties;

European foreword
This document (EN 60115-1:2023) consists of the text of IEC 60115-1:2020 prepared by IEC/TC 40,
“Capacitors and resistors for electronic equipment”, together with the common modifications prepared by the
CLC TC/40XB, “Resistors”.
The following dates are fixed:
• latest date by which this document has to be (dop) 2024-02-13
implemented at national level by publication of an
identical national standard or by endorsement
• latest date by which the national standards (dow) 2026-02-13
conflicting with this document have to be withdrawn
This document supersedes EN 60115-1:2011 + EN 60115-1:2011/A11:2015.
This edition contains the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
a) this edition employs a new document structure, where the tests of prior Clause 4 are given in
Clauses 6 to 12 now, with an informative Annex ZX providing cross-references for references to the
prior revision of this standard;
b) the terms and definitions have been revised and amended, supplemented by a new section on resistor
technologies and a new section on product classification levels;
c) a new Subclause 4.7 on recommendations for permissible substitutions has been added;
d) the provisions for packaging, storage and transportation in Subclauses 4.8, 4.9 and 4.10 have been
completely revised;
e) a new Subclause 5.3 on default tolerances for the most common test parameters has been added;
f) the generic method of measuring resistance, now Sublause 5.6, has been separated from the test for
compliance with a prescribed resistance value in 6.1, as a revision of the prior 4.5;
g) the test for the temperature coefficient of resistance of Subclause 6.2 is a revision of the prior test 4.8,
variation of resistance with temperature, where the special concessions for resistors below 10 Ω have
been waived;
h) the single-pulse high-voltage overload test of Subclause 8.2 (prior 4.27) has been completely revised;
i) the periodic-pulse high-voltage overload test of Subclause 8.3 (prior 4.28) has been revised and a
corrected table of severities provided;
j) the period-pulse overload test of Subclause 8.4 (prior 4.39) has been deprecated and streamlined to
only offer the severity historically applied in subordinate specifications;
k) the Subclauses 9.1 on visual inspection, 9.2 on the gauging of dimensions, and 9.3 on the assessment
of detail dimensions (all parts of prior 4.4) have been completely revised;
l) the tests for robustness of terminations (prior 4.16) have been revised and separated into tests for the
robustness of solderable terminations, Subclause 9.5, and tests for the robustness of threaded stud or
screw terminations, Subclause 9.6;
m) the bump test of Subclause 9.9 (prior 4.20) and the shock test of Subclause 9.10 (prior 4.21) have been
revised to reflect the merged relevant test standard EN 60068-2-29;
n) the accelerated damp heat, steady-state test of Subclause 10.5 (prior 4.37) has been amended with an
option for a reduced number of bias voltages;
o) the corrosion test of Subclause 10.6 has been completely revised in order to employ the better suitable
test method of EN 60068-2-52 instead of the prior used EN 60068-2-11;
p) the whisker growth test of 10.7 has been revised to reflect the changes of the new revision of the test
methods of EN IEC 60068-2-82;
q) the test methods for solderability of Subclause 11.1 (prior 4.17) and for resistance to soldering heat of
Subclause 11.2 (prior 4.18) have been completely revised to incorporate the necessary option for the
variety of lead-bearing and lead-free solder alloys and respective process conditions;
r) the solvent resistance test of 11.3 combines the prior tests 4.29, component solvent resistance, and
4.30, solvent resistance of marking, in one test;
s) the accidental overload test of Subclause 12.3 (prior 4.26) has been completely revised.
