MNR04MRAPJ680

Resistor Networks, Arrays

A resistor network, array or ladder is an arrangement of individual resistors connected in series or parallel to produce a desired resistance value and to account for tolerance and temperature variation. They are widely used in power electronics, communications, energy systems and instrumentation. The MNR04MRAPJ680 is a type of resistor network specifically designed for Voltage Programmable Attenuation applications.

MNR04MRAPJ680 Application Field and Working Principle

The MNR04MRAPJ680 is used in applications such as programmable attenuators, voltage dividers, potentiometers, RF attenuators, voltage-controlled current sources and voltage-controlled voltage sources. This type of resistor network is capable of providing accurate, repeatable attenuation by varying the control voltage. The working principle of the MNR04MRAPJ680 is simple and effective. The resistor network is composed of two individual resistor arrays that are connected in parallel and share the same power source. Each of the resistor arrays has four fixed resistors and one variable resistor. The variable resistor can be adjusted to modify the resistance value of the entire network. The control voltage is supplied to the variable resistor in order to achieve the desired output voltage. The control voltage can be a DC voltage or an AC voltage depending on the application.

The MNR04MRAPJ680 is a low-cost, reliable solution that offers superior performance in many applications. The resistor network provides adjustable attenuation from 0 dB up to 90 dB and wide temperature range operation. The resistor array is highly linear, resulting in precise attenuation values over the full range of frequencies. The network includes self-protection features such as reverse voltage protection, overvoltage protection and overcurrent protection that prevent it from damage in case of incorrect use.

The MNR04MRAPJ680 is a popular choice for a wide range of applications due to its flexibility and wide range of features. It can be used in communication systems, power electronics, automotive electronics and other applications. The resistor network can be adjusted to produce different attenuation levels and it can be used with DC or AC voltages. The precise and repeatable attenuation values make the MNR04MRAPJ680 an ideal solution for many applications.
