Through Hole Resistors

Through hole resistors are an electronic component used to provide resistance to a circuit. Generally used to control current flow and voltage levels, they are available in a variety of shapes and forms. Among the many types of through hole resistors is the FMP100FRE52-1R18.

Application Field

The FMP100FRE52-1R18 is a small, low-power through hole resistor that can be used in many digital electronic applications. It is often used in circuit protection, current limiting, signal attenuation, and voltage regulation. Its small size allows it to be used in tight spaces and places where space is a premium. It can also be used in applications where a low profile component is needed, such as surface mount designs.

Working Principle

The basic working principle of the FMP100FRE52-1R18 is simple. When current passes through it, a voltage drop is created across the resistor, proportional to the current flowing through it. This voltage drop is referred to as Ohm\'s Law, and is determined by the value of the resistor. The lower the value of the resistor, the lower the voltage drop, and thus the lower the current that can pass through it. This can be used to adjust the flow of current through a circuit, allowing designers to finely tune their design.

Through hole resistors such as the FMP100FRE52-1R18 provide an ideal solution for many digital electronics projects. By providing a low-profile, low powered component, they are able to fill a number of needs in a variety of applications. This makes them a versatile and cost effective component for many circuit designs.
