Abstract :
It is pointed out that relative temperature coefficients of resistance (TCR) and/or tolerances of circuits should be specified rather than absolute TCRs lower than 50 p.p.m./°C and absolute tolerances lower than ±0.5%. This is in the interest of both supplier and customer. To illustrate this, very long-term results are given
