Ohmega Ticer

Ohmega Ticer™ brings together two long-established names in embedded resistor technology: Ohmega Technologies and Ticer Technologies.

For more than five decades, Ohmega has produced OhmegaPly®, a resistor-conductor material used in the construction of electronic devices. Ticer developed TCR®, a next-generation embedded resistor technology, in 1999.

Now combined under one manufacturer, Ohmega Ticer supplies both materials with a proven history of reliability and a continued focus on innovation and product enhancement.

Material & Applications

Cirexx uses both OhmegaPly and TCR as embedded layers of resistors, created using a standard PCB print and etch process. Embedding resistor components frees up space on the surface of the PCB. The material acts like a resistive “blank slate,” giving the PCB designer a tool for addressing electronic issues that call for passive resistors or resistive films.

TCR is a thin-film embedded resistor copper foil for digital and RF printed circuit boards, well-suited to the performance demands of advanced designs. It is Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS)-compliant and compatible with a wide range of resin systems, including standard, high-performance, lead-free, and specialty products. TCR increases available space for components, reduces PCB weight, improves overall product performance, and provides exceptional thermal stability.

OhmegaPly and TCR are used in the following PCB applications:

  • Military and aerospace
  • Satellites
  • Space probes
  •  Missiles
  • Fighter aircraft
  • Unmanned aerial vehicles
  • Consumer products
  • Cell phones
  • Microphones
  • Digital and RF printed circuit boards
