CRB3A4E473JT

Resistor Networks, Arrays

Resistor networks, or arrays, are groups of multiple resistors combined into a single package. In the context of electronics, arrays are typically used to create dividers and buffered gain stages for signal processing. They are also often used in power supplies to help regulate power. The CRB3A4E473JT is a type of resistor network that offers a wide range of capabilities while still being small and lightweight.

The CRB3A4E473JT resistor network consists of three resistors, each with a different value of resistance. The resistors are packaged in a plastic housing with a pin spacing of 12.6mm and a total device size of 9.7 x 5.6 x 3.3mm. The three resistors are connected in series, so that each resistor has the same current passing through it and the total resistance of the network is the sum of all the individual resistances. The components are typically sourced from a single manufacturer and are of a high quality, allowing for reliable operation.

The primary application of the CRB3A4E473JT is for dividing the input voltage. This can be done by connecting the output of the CRB3A4E473JT to ground, which creates a voltage divider. The lower resistor in the network has a higher value than the other two, so it pulls the majority of current and provides the output voltage. This allows for precise voltage division and buffering for signal processing. The CRB3A4E473JT can also be used in power supplies to adjust the voltage as needed or for current limiting cases.

In terms of its working principle, the CRB3A4E473JT is based on the basic electrical properties of resistors. When a voltage is applied across one of the resistors, a current is produced that is inversely proportional to the resistance of the resistor. The total current through the network is the sum of all the individual currents, while the total resistance of the network is the sum of all the individual resistances. The voltage output is proportional to the ratio of the resistances in the network, meaning that it can be adjusted by changing the values of the individual resistors.

The CRB3A4E473JT is a versatile resistor network that can be used for a wide variety of applications. Its small form factor and ease of use make it an ideal choice for many designs. It can be used for voltage division, buffering, current limiting, and many other purposes. By leveraging the principles of resistors, the CRB3A4E473JT can be adapted to suit any application.
