CPCP0515R00JB31

Through Hole Resistors are devices used to reduce or limit electric current in a system or circuit. They are one of the most common components used in electronics and electrical circuits and are essential to the proper functioning of many consumer and industrial products. The CPCP0515R00JB31 is a through hole resistor that is commonly used as part of a range of circuit protection and current limiting applications.

A through hole resistor is a resistor that has two leads that go through a hole in the circuit board. It is designed to be mounted directly on the board, rather than on a socket or in an enclosure. This makes installation and maintenance easier, since all connections are hardwired to the board rather than being connected to a socket that can easily become disconnected. Through hole resistors, also known as through-hole packages, are ideal for applications that require a high degree of reliability or that need to withstand extreme temperatures or vibrations.

The CPCP0515R00JB31 through hole resistor is designed to offer reliable current limiting capacity in high voltage and large exposed area applications. It is constructed from a series of metal plates that are stacked up and electrically connected using through-hole plating technology. The metal plates are made from insulated material that allows for a more uniform heat distribution, making this resistor ideal for applications where high power surge currents are expected. Additionally, the CPCP0515R00JB31 is UL94 V-0 rated, which means it meets the highest safety standard for flame retardancy.

The working principle behind the CPCP0515R00JB31 is based on Ohm’s Law, which states that the current flowing through a resistor is proportional to the voltage applied across its terminals. This means that when the voltage across the CPCP0515R00JB31 is increased, the current flowing through it is also increased. When the current flowing through the resistor increases, the amount of power dissipated increases as well. This power is dissipated as heat, which is why it is important to select the proper resistor for the application in order to not overload and damage the resistor.

The CPCP0515R00JB31 through hole resistor is suitable for a wide variety of applications, ranging from motor protection and surge current limitation to circuit protection and voltage regulation. It can be used in a variety of industrial, commercial, and consumer products for circuit protection, current limiting, and surge current absorption. Additionally, it is also suitable for prototyping, as it supports a wide range of current carrying capacities, with standard values stretching from 0.1 Ohm to 1 ohm and custom values available up to 1 Gigaohm.

The CPCP0515R00JB31 through hole resistor is a reliable and cost-effective solution for a variety of applications such as motor protection, surge current limitation, circuit protection, and voltage regulation. With its durable construction, high power surge capacity, and UL94 V-0 rating, it is a suitable choice for a wide range of applications that require a high degree of reliability and safety.
