Through Hole Resistors

A through-hole resistor is an electronic component that is used to reduce an electric current in circuits and complex components. Through-hole resistors are also known as leaded resistors because they are soldered onto a circuit board using leads contained within the resistor body. Through-hole resistors are cost-effective and come in various shapes and sizes. The most common type is the MFR100FRE52-120K, which is used in many applications.

MFR100FRE52-120K Application Field

The MFR100FRE52-120K is a surface mount resistor with excellent thermal and electrical characteristics, making it suitable for use in a wide range of applications. It is a preferred choice for use in capacitor decoupling, signal filtering, and power amplifier circuits. It is also suitable for circuit protection applications such as current sense resistors, bleeder resistors, and so on. In general, the MFR100FRE52-120K is most commonly used in digital integrated circuits, audio circuits, and switching power supplies.

MFR100FRE52-120K Working Principle

The MFR100FRE52-120K is a non-inductive, surface-mount resistor that works on the principle of voltage division. This resistor is divided into two parts, the top and the bottom, separated by an insulation layer. When a voltage is applied across the resistor, it distributes the voltage drop between the two parts according to the ratio of the two resistances. The lower resistance (R1) determines the voltage drop across the bottom and the higher resistance (R2) determines the voltage drop across the top.

The MFR100FRE52-120K consists of an alloy element, which limits the flow of electrons between the two terminals, resulting in a voltage or power drop. As the voltage passes through the resistor, the current is automatically reduced, which results in less power consumption and greater efficiency in the circuit.

The MFR100FRE52-120K can be used in a wide range of temperatures, from -55℃ to +125℃. The resistor is also RoHS and REACH compliant, making it a suitable choice for use in any environment.

Conclusion

The MFR100FRE52-120K is a reliable through-hole resistor with excellent characteristics. This type of resistor is a cost-effective solution for circuit protection, capacitor decoupling, signal filtering, and power amplifier applications. The MFR100FRE52-120K is an ideal choice for any project due to its wide temperature range and RoHS/REACH compliance.
