Through Hole Resistors

Through hole resistors are components with two leads that are inserted into holes on the printed circuit board, which is how they derived their name. Through hole resistors are available in both axial and radial packages and come in various performance features. The MF0207FRD52-100R resistors are axially mounted resistors with excellent stability and low inductance.

Application Field

The MF0207FRD52-100R resistors are commonly used in power systems, computers and telecommunications equipment. The resistance range of the MF0207FRD52-100R is between 200 Ohms and 200K Ohms. It also features surge voltage withstand capability in excess of 15KV and an excellent power rating of 2W. The low inductance body design makes it ideal for high-frequency applications such as switching power supplies, RF power amplifiers and solar cells.

Working Principle

Like other through hole resistors, the MF0207FRD52-100R works by the flow of electrons through an insulating, or resistive material. Resistor materials are designed to control the flow of electricity, such as to reduce the current flow or even stop the current completely. A known amount of voltage is applied across the resistor and the resulting electric current flowing through it creates a voltage drop across the resistive material depending on the material’s resistance value. The amount of voltage drop is a direct indication of the amount of current flowing through the resistor.

Conclusion

The MF0207FRD52-100R through hole resistor is an excellent component for applications requiring accuracy, stability, excellent power rating and low inductance for high-frequency applications. Its surge voltage resilient features makes it ideal for high-voltage and high-current applications.
