Working Principle

The RN50C6980FB14 works on the principle of an electrical resistor. An electricalresistor is a component that resists the flow of electrical current, and itsresistance to current flow is gauge in Ohms. How much current a given resistorcan handle is determined by its power dissipation rating. The RN50C6980FB14has a power dissipation rating of 500 mW, so it can safely handle current upto 10A.

The resistor works by converting electrical energy into heat energy. Theelectrical energy is dissipated in the form of heat energy, and the heat energymoves away from the resistor through its body. The resistor needs to bemounted on a heat sink in order to safely dissipate the heat energy.

Conclusion

The RN50C6980FB14 is a through hole resistor designed to withstand themost demanding application requirements. It offers high temperatureperformance, robust construction, extended range and high current capacity,making it suitable for a wide range of applications. The resistor works onthe principle of an electrical resistor, converting electrical energy intothe heat energy and dissipating through its body, while mounted on a heatsink.
