Through Hole Resistors

Through hole resistors are resistors that are attached to a printed circuit board (PCB) through individual holes. Through hole resistors are common in most electronics and serve many different functions in applications. It is important to ensure that the right type of through hole resistor is used for the specific application, as many different types of through hole resistors exist, including surface mount, axial lead, and carbon-film through-hole resistors. One such type of through-hole resistor is the PSP17AJB-5K1.

PSP17AJB-5K1 Application Field and Working Principle

The PSP17AJB-5K1 is a through-hole resistor that has been specifically designed for use in low-noise, high-reliability applications. It is a 5KOhm axial lead, surface mount resistor with a power rating of 2520mW. The PSP17AJB-5K1 is composed of three primary components: the resistor body, the contact leads, and the sleeve. The resistor body is constructed from solid metal, while the contact leads are composed of copper and the sleeve is composed of insulating epoxy.

The PSP17AJB-5K1 is designed to perform at temperatures up to 125°C and in environments with protected storage temperatures between -55°C and +125°C. This allows the resistor to be used in a wide range of conditions, making it ideal for use in a variety of applications and environments. In terms of performance, the PSP17AJB-5K1 has an operating voltage up to 150VAC, with a maximum allowable DC resistance variation of ±20%.

The PSP17AJB-5K1 utilizes a simple working principle based on Ohm’s law, which states that the voltage drop across a resistor is equal to the current times the resistance. When current is supplied to the resistor, the resistance of the resistor reduces very slightly, resulting in a voltage drop across the resistor. This voltage drop is known as a resistance voltage and can be used to regulate the voltage in an electronic system.

One major advantage of the PSP17AJB-5K1 is its ability to suppress noise in low-noise applications. It is also designed for excellent reliability, with its high temperature rating and excellent voltage and resistance variations. This makes it a great choice for use in applications that require high reliability and low noise. Common applications of the PSP17AJB-5K1 include medical electronics, consumer electronics, automotive electronics, and telecommunications.
