Through Hole Resistors

Through hole resistors, or "leaded resistors," are resistors designed to be mounted through the printed circuit board (PCB). Essentially, they consist of an insulating housing with two metal ends which are connected to the PCB. The two metal ends are referred to as leads and are inserted through a hole in the PCB. The resistor itself is a piece of ceramic material with metal ends, which forms a barrier between the leads and the PCB. The leads provide electrical connections from the resistor to the PCB.

RN55E2522BB14 is a very common type of through hole resistor. The RN55E2522BB14 can be found in various applications where resistance and tolerance is a requirement. The resistance value of the RN55E2522BB14 is generally in the range of 2.2 to 47 ohms with a tolerance of ±20%, while the power rating of the resistor is 2W. The main feature of the RN55E2522BB14 is its low temperature coefficient, which guarantees a highly stable performance across a wide range of temperatures.

RN55E2522BB14 application field and working principle

The RN55E2522BB14 is ideal for use in electronic circuits where a precise value of resistance is required. For example, the RN55E2522BB14 may be used for voltage divider circuits, current limiter circuits, or as a load resistor. Additionally, the RN55E2522BB14 is commonly used to reduce voltage across components and can be connected in parallel or series with other components. This enables the RN55E2522BB14 to act as a circuit breaker, effectively limiting the current passed through the resistor.

The working principle of the RN55E2522BB14 is relatively simple. When the voltage applied to the leads of the RN55E2522BB14 is increased, the electrons in the resistor flow through the ceramic material, creating a field of resistance. This resistance field limits the flow of current through the resistor, thus regulating the current level to the desired amount. The tolerance of the resistor ensures that the current levels will not exceed the specified amount, as the tolerance will prevent the current from rising too high.

The RN55E2522BB14 through hole resistor is an affordable and reliable resistor solution, making it the perfect choice for a variety of low-power applications. By combining the low temperature coefficient, high tolerance, and low cost, the RN55E2522BB14 offers an ideal solution for many electronic circuits.
