H46K2DZA

Through Hole Resistors (THRs) are divided into two types: film (roughly) and metal-based resistors. The H46K2DZA Through Hole Resistor is a thin film resistor. It is a fixed-value device manufactured using screen-printing techniques and film technology.

The H46K2DZA is engineered from a thin film of metal oxides deposited onto an alumina substrate. The resistor elements of the device are insulated with cathode sputtered silicon dioxide or nitride. The basic principle of the H46K2DZA is the resistance of a metal conductor in a variable amount of thickness, determined by its geometrical shape. Its anisotropic properties, meaning the direction of its graph axis, also affects its resistance. Such directional effects rely on the direction of the electric current along the resistive film. In the H46K2DZA, the resistance varies with heat, humidity, and other environmental parameters.

The H46K2DZA Through Hole Resistor has a wide range of application, from being used as part of an electronic circuit to create a timer or a motor drive, to in measuring devices such as pressure or temperature transducers. Its wide operating temperature range of -55˚C to +125˚C and fast reaction to changing resistive conditions, produces a self-compensating mechanism that allows for low thermal coefficients over a wide temperature range. Such a highly stable feature is therefore suitable for more accurate measurement or control systems in automotive, industrial, and consumer products.

Overall, the high performance and relatively low price of the H46K2DZA through hole resistor makes it a preferred choice for industrial and consumer markets alike, where a reliable and accurate performing device is of essence. Its stable thermal characteristics and wide operating temperature range, coupled with its technological process of production makes the H46K2DZA the perfect THR for any job. The device offers robustness and reliability as well as a multitude of features such as fast response, low drift values, and low dielectric absorption.
