H82K05DCA

Through Hole Resistors, also commonly referred to as mounting resistors, are used to provide electrical resistance to the flow of electricity in a circuit. They act as a ‘friction’ against the flow of electricity, converting some of the electrical energy into heat as it passes through.

H82K05DCA Application Field and Working Principle

The H82K05DCA is a versatile mounting resistor, offering a range of features that make it ideal for uses in a variety of fields. It is rated at 0.5 Watts and is 4 pin resistor package, with two common pins for both sides of the resistor element. This allows for increased operating temperature range and current from both sides of the resistor. The H82K05DCA can be used in a variety of applications such as automotive and industrial, frequency control, motor control, power conversion, motor drives, motion control and many more. Its four pin package ensures a reliable electrical connection, and it can also be used as a heat sink for thermal management systems.

The H82K05DCA is designed with a flat finish that ensures a superior adhesion with the mount and prevents unnecessary movement. Although the resistor is rated for 0.5 Watts, the flat finish allows for higher power levels in certain applications. The resistor is also designed to tolerate extreme temperatures, from -40°C to +150°C. This makes it suitable for use in harsh environments and also for high power applications.

The H82K05DCA is a four terminal resistor, which works on the principle of resistive elements. When current passes through the resistor, a voltage drop occurs across the resistor due to the inherent property of resistance. The voltage drop is proportional to the magnitude of the current, and is inversely proportional to the magnitude of the resistance. The resistor is also designed to reduce the magnitude of the voltage by dissipating part of the energy (in form of heat) generated from the flow of current.

The H82K05DCA mounting resistor is a low cost and efficient component option for a wide variety of applications. Its four pin package ensures a reliable electrical connection, and its flat finish ensures a superior adhesion to the mount. The resistor is also designed to tolerate extreme temperatures, from -40°C to +150°C. With its versatility and range of features, the H82K05DCA is suited for many applications including automotive, industrial, frequency control, motor control, power conversion, motor drives, motion control and more.
