H8715RBBA

Through Hole Resistors

Through hole resistors, also known as leaded resistors, are the oldest form of resistor technology, and are still widely used in various projects and circuits today. H8715RBBA is a through hole resistor, and has many applications in fields such as power supplies, audio equipment, automotive systems, robotics, HVAC systems, and many more.

The H8715RBBA has a wide resistance range, spanning from 0.1Ω to 10MΩ. Depending on the application, the power rating of the resistor can range from 1/8W up to 5W. The standard tolerance range for the H8715RBBA is up to ±5%, with special options for up to 0.25%, which makes it highly precise for certain applications. The contact configuration on the resistor is also varied depending on its application and includes full-size axial lead configurations, DO-201 plastic CVP leads, and two or more pin leads.

Besides its varied contact configuration, the resistor can also be manufactured in different physical sizes, from miniaturized surface mount to large size through hole components. The temperature coefficient of the resistor can also be adjusted based on the application, and can have a maximum magnitude of ±400ppm/°C.

The working principle of the H8715RBBA is quite simple. The resistor consists of a conductive material (typically carbon or metal) wrapped up in an insulating material called a substrate, which is then coated with a dielectric material. This creates an electrical resistance in the resistor, which is proportional to the length and diameter of the resistor core. The resistance is then measured by connecting a voltage source across the two leads, and measuring the current flowing through the resistor.

In certain cases, the resistor may also need to be temperature compensated in order to have a more consistent resistance. This is done by using a thermistor, which is a temperature sensitive element that compensates the resistance value of the resistor.

In conclusion, H8715RBBA is a versatile through hole resistor that can be used in a wide variety of applications, from automotive systems to audio equipment. It is highly precise and can be manufactured in different sizes and configurations. Its simple working principle makes it easy to use and highly reliable.
