MDP160347R0GE04 Datasheet/PDFThe MDP160347R0GE04 part of resistor networks and arrays is a component used in electronic circuits. It is an Arrays-type Passive component consisting of 16 surface-mount resistors connected in an array, with the common ground terminal formed by an electroplated copper pad.
Application Field
The MDP160347R0GE04 is a great choice for applications such as portable electronic devices, cellular phones, PDAs, LCD displays, audio equipment, power supplies and many other consumer products. It is well suited to provide efficient current distribution and control and is also very reliable and economical.
The small size and multiple terminals allow this component to fit in almost any application. Its size also allows for more intricate designs that require multiple resistors to be connected in a array. These applications include, but not limit to, pulse width modulation (PWM) chopper circuits, signal switching and gain control circuits.
Working Principle
The MDP160347R0GE04 works by setting up a current paths between two nodes on a board, allowing a current to flow when the nodes are connected to two distinct voltage sources. This is done by connecting each individual resistor within the array to two nodes. Thus, when both nodes are energized, the current is divided between the resistors in accordance with their resistance values.
This component is also capable of providing current limiting and voltage mixing between two nodes at the same time. With this property, it can be used to regulate its effect on the voltage levels on both nodes, and to prevent damage to the components connected to either node.
Therefore, the MDP160347R0GE04 is a great solution for applications where multiple voltage sources need to be controlled simultaneously, while also helping to save space on the circuit board.
