MJ8252FE-R52

Through Hole Resistors are a type of electronic component used to restrict the flow of electric current in a circuit, and the MJ8252FE-R52 Through Hole Resistor is no exception. These resistors can be found in a range of applications, including automotive, consumer, industrial, and military. The MJ8252FE-R52 is particularly suited for use in automotive and military applications as it is extremely durable and has excellent temperature stability.

The MJ8252FE-R52 is a surface mount resistor with a maximum power rating of 5 watts. It consists of two parts: the resistor element and the solder connections. The resistor element consists of a conductive material such as carbon, film, or metal oxide, which is encased in an insulating material. The conductive material serves to reduce the flow of electrical current through it, thereby limiting the amount of current that can be supplied to a circuit. The solder connections then provide the connection between the resistor and the circuit board.

The amount of resistance offered by the MJ8252FE-R52 resistor is determined by its size. Generally, the larger the resistor, the greater the resistance. The physical size of the resistor also determines the maximum voltage and current ratings of the resistor. The resistor has a maximum voltage rating of 150 volts and a maximum current rating of 0.5 amperes. It also has a tolerance of 5%, meaning that the actual resistance of the resistor may vary by 5% from its marked value.

The working principle of the MJ8252FE-R52 Through Hole Resistor is quite simple. When a current is applied to the resistor, the conductive material inside the resistor element limits the current, making it harder for the current to pass through. This resistance helps to protect the circuit from overloads and also reduces the amount of power that can be supplied to the circuit. The resistor\'s tolerance helps to ensure that the actual resistance of the resistor is as close as possible to the marked value.

In conclusion, the MJ8252FE-R52 Through Hole Resistor is a durable, reliable, and affordable component that is well-suited for use in automotive, consumer, industrial, and military applications. This resistor is capable of withstanding temperatures up to 155°C and offers a tolerance of 5%. Its working principle is fairly straightforward and it provides excellent protection against overloads. With its combination of excellent features and affordability, the MJ8252FE-R52 Through Hole Resistor is a great choice for a variety of applications.
