Through Hole Resistors - 20J1K8E Application Field and Working Principle

Through hole resistors come in many shapes and sizes, but the 20J1K8E is one of the most widely used types due to its low cost and easy assembly. It\'s made up of two parts: the body and the lead(s). The body is the actual resistor element, and the lead(s) are its connection points, used for wiring the resistor in circuits. These characteristics make it ideal for a wide range of applications, from simple circuits to complex ones.

Applications

20J1K8E resistors are popularly used for the protection and control of uncontrolled voltage and current in electrical circuits, from low to high levels. Its low cost and small fabrication size make the 20J1K8E particularly useful for applications such as motor control, electrical home appliances, consumer electronic equipment, automotive safety systems and home automation. In addition, it is capable of handling high power and current values, making it suitable for the inrush currents in machines and systems with inductive loads. Furthermore, the 20J1K8E can also be used in DC-DC converters.

Working Principle

The working principle of a through hole resistor is simple and based on the principle of Ohm\'s Law. The Ohm\'s Law states that the current through a conductor between two points is directly proportional to the potential difference across the two points, or simply put, is equal to the voltage at the two points, divided by the resistance value of the resistor. Thus, by controlling the resistance value of a 20J1K8E resistor (or any other type of resistor), the current flow of the circuit can be controlled, as it is proportional to the value of the resistor. In addition to controlling the current through the circuit, the 20J1K8E also helps to dissipate the energy stored in the circuit. As the current passes through the resistor, a small portion of the energy is dissipated, and eventually converted into heat, allowing the circuit to stay within safe operation levels.

Conclusion

The 20JK1K8E is a highly versatile resistor type, capable of fulfilling a wide range of applications and withstanding increased current and power ratings. Its simple working principle and construction make it an excellent choice for a wide range of projects. Furthermore, its ability to dissipate energy can help PCBs and other electrical circuits to stay within safe operating conditions.
