Introduction to Through Hole Resistors

Through hole resistors are a kind of electrical component that limits the current or voltage to the desired level. They are commonly used in linear, digital and mixed signal circuits because they come in a wide range of different values, shapes and sizes. The resistor is typically formed from an insulating housing which contains a set of carbon-filled resistive elements that act as the conductive medium. The values these resistors can have is determined by the size and shape of them.

RN55C4992FR36 Application Field and Working Principle

The RN55C4992FR36 is a through hole resistor manufacture by Yageo. This resistor is a 2 watt, 3-terminal, 55k ohm component. The resistor is composed of a cylindrical metal body filled with carbon film resistive elements. Because of the relatively low wattage value of this component (2 W) it is typically used in audio and signal circuits.

The working principle of the RN55C4992FR36 is rather simple. The current that runs through the component must pass through the resistive elements, and it is this resistance that limits the current or voltage to the desired level. The resistance of this component is determined by the size and shape of the resistive elements within the housing.

The RN55C4992FR36 is a 3 Terminal component, meaning it has three separate wiring terminals. Two of the terminals are separated by an insulating wall which evacuates the majority of the heat generated by the resistor, allowing it to function in a much cooler environment. This additional insulation helps to minimize the risk of component failure due to heat. The third terminal is connected directly to the metal body, and this allows for a complete electrical circuit to be formed.

Conclusion

Through hole resistors are a versatile and reliable component that is used in a wide variety of different circuits. The RN55C4992FR36 is an example of such a resistor, and is typically used in audio and signal circuits due to its low wattage value (2 W). This component consists of a cylindrical metal body filled with carbon film resistive elements, and has a resistance value of 55k ohm. When current passes through the resistive elements, the amount of current or voltage is limited to the desired level. This resistor is also fitted with an additional insulation to help minimize the risk of component failure due to heat.
