PSP17AJB-1K2

Through hole resistors offer a few distinct advantages over their surface mount equivalents. Unlike surface mount resistors, through hole resistors have a more secure physical connection to the mounted circuit board, increasing their reliability and longevity. Moreover, through hole resistors are usually much more affordable compared to surface mount resistors.

The PSP17AJB-1K2 is a type of through hole resistor, designed to provide high resistance and electrical stability in applications with direct current (DC) or alternating current (AC) circuits. It is composed of a body, an insulator, and two legs with leads. The resistor body is usually made of ceramic or porcelain, for insulation. The insulating material, either ceramic or mica, is also used to limit any interference with the current flow. The leads are usually made of metals, such as nickel, iron, copper, etc., and are soldered to the circuit board.

The PSP17AJB-1K2 has a resistance value of 1 kilo-ohm, and a tolerance of 5%. It has a maximum operating current of 100mA and operating temperature range of -25°C to 85°C. It is a fixed resistor, meaning that the resistance value remains the same regardless of the applied voltage. This makes it well-suited for applications such as voltage divider circuits, where the desired output voltage is a fraction of the input voltage. Additionally, the PSP17AJB-1K2 is able to withstand temperatures up to 85°C, making it suitable for use in automotive, automotive, industrial and military applications.

The PSP17AJB-1K2 is also well-known for its excellent electrical stability. It is able to maintain stable resistance values in DC or AC circuits. It also exhibits excellent environmental stability and temperature coefficient over a variety of operating ranges. Furthermore, it has low noise levels due to its lack of sparking. This makes it suitable for AC audio circuits, such as amplifiers, for which low noise levels are desired.

Overall, the PSP17AJB-1K2 through hole resistor is suitable for a multitude of applications, ranging from automotive and military to audio and voltage divider circuits. With its excellent electrical and environmental stability, low noise levels and robust construction, it is considered a reliable and cost effective choice. Moreover, it is relatively easy to install or replace, as it soldered directly onto the circuit board.
