Through Hole Resistors - HVR3700003834FR500

Through hole resistors, also known as wire wound resistors, are a type of electronic component that is used in a variety of applications. The HVR3700003834FR500 is a stable, general purpose through hole resistor with a 3834 ohm resistance value. It is a standard axial leaded resistor with a flame retardant casing. This type of resistor is common in many electronic circuits.

The HVR3700003834FR500 is a three-digit, four-band resistors. It is composed of three numbers: the first two digits represent significant figures, while the third is the number of zeroes that follow the significant figures. In this case, 37 stands for 3 significant figures and 7 zeroes following them. The HVR code also has 4 colored stripes, each representing a number. The 3700 is indicated by red and orange stripes that represent 3 and 7, respectively. The next two stripes indicate the number of zeroes that follow, which are 0 in this case. The last color, black, is the tolerance code. FR stands for Flame Retardant and the last two digits specify the tolerance rate of the resistor. In this case, 500 means a ±0.005 ohms tolerance per ohm.

These resistors are used in multiple applications, including voltage and current regulation, signal conditioning, power dissipation, impedance matching, and more. The HVR3700003834FR500 provides a reliable and stable electrical current path for any desired resistance. It consists of a stable, durable material including a core wire that is made from a ceramic, carbon, or metal alloy. This core wire is then surrounded by an insulating material, such as a fiberglass or epoxy, followed by a layer of heat-resistant material. After these layers are complete, a metal housing is then applied over the resistor body. This metal casing helps to protect the component from external factors, such as heat, dust, and water.

The working principle of the HVR3700003834FR500 is simple. The resistor works by using its core material to resist the flow of electricity. The current then passes through it, providing the desired resistance. The amount of resistance the resistor offers is determined by its construction and materials. The resistor can be used in both linear and non-linear applications depending on the desired level of resistance the circuit requires.

The HVR3700003834FR500 is a reliable and effective component when it comes to a variety of electronic applications that require an accurate and stable resistance. It is constructed with a strong and durable material to protect it from external factors, such as heat, dust, and water. It can also efficiently regulate the flow of electricity by providing a known resistance value.
