CA000182R00JR05

Through Hole Resistors, like CA000182R00JR05, are used primarily for electrical applications like filters, voltage dividers, sensing circuits, and bias applications. These Resistors are cylindrical in shape with a hole bored through the center. This allows them to be inserted into a printed circuit board, enabling the electronical conductivity of the board to connect with the resistor. These Resistors essentially manage the flow of electricity in the circuit, performing one of two duties depending on the application.

The first common application for Through Hole Resistors is to limit or control the current in a circuit. This is often called a current-limiting Resistor. Its job is to limit or reduce the current flow to a predetermined level. By introducing resistance into the circuit, the resistor can control the current flow, allowing the user to adjust the amount of current being transmitted.

The second common application forThrough Hole Resistors is for energy conversion. This is often done by using a Pulse Resistor, which controls the duration of a pulse or pulse-like electrical signal. As its name implies, it turns the electrical energy of a pulse into heat. In this way, the Resistor helps to convert energy from one form to another, providing a buffer for sensitive electrical signals.

Although Through Hole Resistors can be found in many different electrical components, they all function in essentially the same way. The hole in the center allows the Resistor to be inserted into a circuit board, where it will provide the necessary resistance. Furthermore, these Resistors can be used for a variety of electrical applications, including limiting the current, converting energy, and sensing circuits.
