Furthermore, in order to reduce the power consumption, it is often used in kinetic circuits.

Working Principle

CRA04S08318K0JTD is a resistor network or array, which consists of several resistor elements in one package to distribute the electrical signal or current to the ports. With the resistors connected in series, they will construct a voltage divider to decrease the current flow. Meanwhile, the resistors connected in parallel are employed to raise the power rating of the resistors. The resistance in CRA04S08318K0JTD can be changed by changing its size. For example, increasing the size will lower the resistance while reducing the size of the resistor will raise the resistance. Moreover, it has excellent accuracy so it can be used as a voltage reference or to measure the current in the circuit.

In conclusion, CRA04S08318K0JTD is widely used in many circuits such as power supply system, signal isolation network, matching circuit and kinetic circuit, because of its wide application field and working principle. With its excellent accuracy, it is also often used as a voltage reference or to measure the current.
