Through hole resistors are perhaps the most commonly used passive components in circuitry. They serve a vast range of purposes, from controlling voltage and current measurements to providing power control and protection. They can be used to regulate temperatures, voltage levels, and even measured impedance values.

The RL20S360GR36 is a through-hole resistor component capable of performing all of the above tasks. It is an axial lead resistor with maximum power rating of 360 watts and resistance values of 20 ohms. It is commonly used in high-power applications such as audio/video equipment and automotive circuits. Due to both its high-power rating and its high-reliability characteristics, it is also becoming increasingly popular in industrial and military equipment.

The RL20S360GR36 is composed primarily of two parts: a ceramic core and a metal-oxide film. The ceramic core acts as a structure to hold the metal-oxide film in place. It is highly resistant to thermal shock and mechanical shock due to its low expansion rate and its high flexural strength.The metal-oxide film is composed of a thin layer of insulating material on to the resistor, usually a base of aluminum oxide, which is then covered by a layer of a metal, typically nickel or palladium. This metal layer serves two purposes: it increases the resistor’s tolerance to higher voltages and it also increases the resistor’s temperature coefficients.

In operation, the RL20S360GR36 works by reducing the amount of current that is allowed to flow through a circuit. This is done by utilizing the resistor’s resistance values to restrict the amount of current that can pass through it. By using the resistance values to regulate current, the RL20S360GR36 acts like a limiter and prevents unwanted current from “overflowing” and short circuiting the system. This is why the RL20S360GR36 is so popular in automated and electronics systems that require precise current control to ensure optimal operation. In these applications, the resistor becomes an important part of controlling the system\'s power output while also preventing any unwanted sudden changes in current drawn from the system.

Overall, the RL20S360GR36 is a great choice for applications that require precision current control, high power ratings, and high-efficiency operation. It is capable of providing reliable current regulation in a wide range of applications, from industrial and military to automotive and consumer electronics. Its high-reliability characteristics also make it suitable for use in mission-critical systems.
