ALSR01200R0FE12

Through-hole resistors, also known as THRS, are components that consist of a cylindrical body with a metal core and two metal contact points. They are primarily used for controlling currents and voltages in circuits, often providing signal isolation and protection. The ALSR01200R0FE12 is a through-hole resistor rated at 12 ohms and features a form factor of 12. It has two opposite leads, rated at 10.5v and can handle up to 100mA of current. The ALSR01200R0FE12 is a general-purpose resistor commonly used in industrial and consumer electronics.

One of the most common applications for through-hole resistors is in power supplies. In power supplies, the resistor acts as a current limiter, regulating the current that is permitted to flow through a circuit. Resistors are also used in voltage step-down applications, providing regulation and maintaining a steady voltage level. Lastly, through-hole resistors can also be used to protect circuits against overvoltage and electrostatic interference.

The working principle of the ALSR01200R0FE12 is based on Ohm’s law, which states that the current passing through a resistor is inversely proportional to its resistance. This means that as the resistance of a resistor increases, the current flowing through it will decrease. The ALSR01200R0FE12 has two separate contact points located on each end of its cylinder, allowing for two distinct paths for the current to move. When voltage is applied, the current will flow through the path that has the least resistance. As the resistance increases, the current will be forced to redirect to the path with the least resistance.

The ALSR01200R0FE12 is a reliable and cost-effective option for a variety of applications. It is perfect for industrial applications, as well as consumer applications such as cell phones, power supplies, and other electronics. The component offers long-term stability and reliable performance, making it a great choice for various applications.

In conclusion, the ALSR01200R0FE12 is a versatile and robust through-hole resistor, capable of providing reliable performance in applications that require protection or current limiting. It is a cost-effective component with a simple, yet effective working principle based on Ohm’s law. The component is perfect for industrial and consumer applications, making it a great option for engineers and hobbyists alike.
