Working Principle

The working principle of the KNP500JT-91-0R15 is based on the resistance-temperature coefficient (RTC) principle. This principle states that when a current passes through a resistor, its temperature will rise because of the Joule effect, resulting in a resistance change. This resistance change is directly proportional to the temperature, so that the greater the temperature, the higher the resistance value.

As the temperature of the resistor increases, the voltage drop across it decreases and the current will increase. This change can then be detected and used to control the temperature of the resistor, allowing for accurate control of the current. The KNP500JT-91-0R15 also has a calibrated temperature range, so it can be used to accurately measure temperature.

The KNP500JT-91-0R15 also features an integrated temperature compensation circuit, which minimizes the effect of temperature on the resistor’s performance. This helps maintain the accuracy of the resistor without the need for manual adjustment of the temperature.
