RNF18FTC392R

Through Hole Resistors, such as the RNF18FTC392R, are used to limit the flow of electricity through electrical circuits in a wide variety of applications. These devices are designed to offer reliable, accurate, and repeatable performance over a wide range of conditions and temperatures.

The most common type of through-hole resistor is the metal-film resistor which employs a metal film to dissipate heat energy to the surroundings. The metal film is applied to a ceramic substrate and the temperature coefficient of resistance is minimized. This makes for a highly reliable and accurate resistor. Other through-hole resistors include wirewound, metal-oxide, carbon-film, and ceramic-surface-mount devices.

The RNF18FTC392R is a high-precision aluminum electrolytic through-hole resistor. This particular model has an operating temperature range of -55 to +125 degrees Celsius and features a 1 percent tolerance rating and flammability-rating classifications of UL 94V-0. It is designed to deliver high accuracy and repeatability over a wide range of temperatures and operating conditions.

The working principle of the RNF18FTC392R is based on the fact that electrical resistance is a measure of the opposition to current flow in a conductor. This is primarily a function of the material that the resistor is constructed from and the size of the conductor. By introducing resistive material or “resistive tracks” between two contact points, current flowing between the two points will be opposed and the voltage reading across the circuit will decrease. This is the basic principle used in all ohmic components.

The RNF18FTC392R is used in a wide variety of application fields. These include radio communication, automotive, robotics, consumer electronics, medical, aerospace, industrial, and commercial applications. It is commonly used in power supplies, audio equipment, motor controls, security systems, data transmission, and other electronic systems where high accuracy and reliability is required.

The RNF18FTC392R is a reliable and accurate resistor that proves to be an indispensable component in numerous applications. It is capable of providing consistent, repeatable performance over a wide range of operating conditions and temperatures, making it ideal for the most demanding applications.
