KNP1WSJB-52-22R

Through hole resistors have become a foundational component in the modern day electronics industry. Used primarily to manage the flow of electrical current, these components are designed to provide the necessary amount of resistance within a circuit. As one of the most commonly used resistor types, through hole resistors are available in many different sizes, resistances, and tolerances. They are also available in several form factors, such as axial and radial. The KNP1WSJB-52-22R is one such resistor, and is commonly found in a range of consumer and industrial applications.

The KNP1WSJB-52-22R is an axial form factor resistor typically composed of a Cermet core and Nickel Chromium (NiCr) alloy. This NiCr alloy combines the durability of Nickel and the corrosion resistance of Chromium into a highly resistant compound which enables the component to handle tremendous heat and current. Further, the component is designed with large leads; this ensures strong mechanical connections which prevents slip connections between the PCB and resistor.

The KNP1WSJB-52-22R is a standard through hole resistor with many common applications across a range of industrial sectors. It is used in a variety of power-supplies, motor controllers, and even medical devices. This resistor is also capable ofwithstanding higher power ratings than other resistors types, making them especially suited for circuit designs using high amount of current. In addition, the large size of the KNP1WSJB-52-22R allows for additional precious metal plating or insulation for demanding application on high-speed PCB environments.

When it comes to through hole resistors and their working principles, the KNP1WSJB-52-22R is no exception. Put simply, resistors reduce the amount of electricity which is able to flow through a circuit. In a circuit, resistors create a desired amount of electrical resistance in order to control the current flow and voltage. Resistance is measured using Ohms, and the resistance of the KNP1WSJB-52-22R resistor is typically between 5.2 to 22 ohms. Within a circuit, the resistor will further protect from short circuits, limit current and helps maintain a steady voltage.

By utilizing the KNP1WSJB-52-22R axial through hole resistor, circuit designers can easily incorporate the advantages of axial resistors into high powered circuits. While standard axial resistors are capable of withstanding currents up to 8 amperes, the KNP1WSJB-52-22R through hole resistor can handle greater than 25 amperes. Because of this, the KNP1WSJB-52-22R is suitable for high current applications which require a lot of power. Furthermore, the component is designed to limit voltage, protect from over-current and unwanted voltage spikes, and offer superior heat dissipation in comparison to other resistors.

Through hole resistors such as the KNP1WSJB-52-22R offer engineers and circuit designers the ability to accurately control the current flow of their circuits. By knowing the properties of resistors and their various form factors, designers have more freedom to create circuits with higher accuracy and more safety features. With the KNP1WSJB-52-22R, both advanced and entry level designs will have the advantage of workhorse torque, high power ratings, and superior heat dissipation.
