Through Hole Resistors

The CP00152K400KE66 is a through hole resistor, a small passive electronic component used to limit current in a circuit. It is designed with an integrated circuit chip which contains a set of resistors connected in parallel across a substrate material. The substrate material is usually composed of an insulator material such as glass or plastic. This substrate material helps to provide the contact resistance to prevent the devices from overheating and damaging the system.

Application Field

The CP00152K400KE66 is used in a broad range of applications, mainly in medical electronics, automotive, energy efficiency, broadcast and military habitats, and power electronics. It is ideal for applications that require accurate and repeatable performance in relatively high current applications such as power supply regulation, motor control, and power switching. These resistors are used in various ways ranging from providing a voltage divider circuit to providing current limiting circuit protection.

In medical electronics, the CP00152K400KE is often used in power circuits where hazardous voltage levels would be encountered. It is used to increase the safety of the medical device by providing resistance in the event of power overload. In automotive applications, the CP00152K400KE is used in power supply control circuits to limit the current to various devices in the car. In broadcast and military habitats, the resistor is used in communications devices to limit the peak power output of the transmitter. In power electronics, the resistor is used for various circuit protection and current limiting applications.

Working Principle

The CP00152K400KE operates on the principle of resistance. Resistance is the opposition provided by a material to the flow of electricity. This opposition is measured in Ohms and indicates the amount of current that a material can withstand before the current is interrupted. The CP00152K400KE resister has a resistance rating of 2.4kOhms, adjusted to controlling current flow up to 0.5A. This resistance rating reduces as the wattage rating of the resistor increases, allowing higher temperatures to be experienced.

Current is a measure of the movement of electrical charges so when the current passes through the resistor, it experiences a reduction in charge. This reduction in electrical charge is what causes the CP00152K400KE to operate as a “current limiter”. The current that flows through the element is less than what would be expected without the resistor. This allows the device to protect the circuit board from overcurrents and short circuits.

The CP00152K400KE is an ideal material for current-limiting applications due to its low temperature coefficient. This characteristic allows the resistance of the resistor to remain constant when the temperature changes. It also offers excellent capacitance characteristics which make it suitable for use in high frequency applications.

Apart from being used as a resistor, the CP00152K400KE can also be used in a variety of other applications such as transformers, chokes, and induction coils. It has also found its way into hybrid systems and ultra-high frequency applications. This through hole resistor is probably one of the most commonly used components in the electronics industry.
