OJ2715E-R52

Through Hole Resistors are one of the most commonly used components in electrical circuits. The OJ2715E-R52 is a Through Hole Resistor designed for use in a variety of applications. It is manufactured by Ohmite, a trusted leader in the resistive components industry. This resistor is ideal for applications such as automotive, medical, industrial and military, as well as consumer appliances.

The OJ2715E-R52 is a leaded resistor with a 5% tolerance, low inductive characteristic, and flame-resistant encapsulation. Its high power rating is able to handle volts up to 1/2 watt at temperatures from -55°C to +125°C. The resistor is constructed with two layers of nickel barrier plating on its nickel chromium iron external leads, providing a reliable and robust connection. Additionally, it is UL rated for construction, allowing it to be used in controlled environments.

The OJ2715E-R52 acts as a passive component in a circuit to control the flow of current, thereby regulating the amount of voltage present. The resistor consists of two conductive plates, or layers, that are separated by a non-conductive material, such as an insulator. This non-conductive material helps prevent current from passing freely between the two plates. Resistance is measured in Ohms, which is a unit of measurement for the electrical resistance.

The OJ2715E-R52 is able to provide a wide range of resistances, allowing for a broad range of applications. This resistor can be configured for use as a voltage divider, current limiter, or in series or parallel connections to meet the needs of the circuit. Additionally, it is capable of dissipating heat generated during operation, allowing it to handle high voltages and power levels.

One of the most common applications for the OJ2715E-R52 is in auto-start and restart circuits, such as those in computers or automotive systems. This resistor is also used in power supplies, adjustable voltage regulators, and dimmer switches. Additional applications include voltage drop compensation for large resistors, signal splitters, biasing circuits, and energy-saving circuits.

The OJ2715E-R52 is a versatile resistor that can be used in many different applications. Its high voltage rating, robust construction, and flame-resistant casing provide reliability and flexibility that make it one of the most popular Through Hole Resistors available on the market today.
