RR03J2K0TB

Through Hole Resistors

A through-hole resistor is essentially a passive two terminal electrical component that is designed to reduce voltage or current to a specified value. The principal application of the through-hole resistor is to protect electronic devices from overloading and short circuiting. It is also often used to reduce the dynamic range of a signal to an appropriate level or to lower the overall impedance of a circuit.

RR03J2K0TB application field and working principle

The RR03J2K0TB through hole resistor is a member of the metal-oxide-film resistor family. It is a precision, low-cost component that is designed for use in a range of applications, including detector circuits, and compensating circuits for process controls. The resistor features a hermetically-sealed metal body, which boosts reliability and long-term stability, and device isolation from environmental enemies like shocks, humidity, varying temperatures, and any form of exposure to moisture or liquids. The device is available in standard values from 0.5 ohm up to 5M ohm.

The device itself works on a principle of opposition to the flow of currents. This effect is caused by a collision of free electrons within the material of the resistor and it is the result of the distribution of electrons along the main axis of the resistor body. Generally, the higher the resistance value, the more collisions will occur and the higher risk of electric shorts forming.

The RR03J2K0TB through hole resistor is unique in that the resistor is hermetically sealed and the resistance value remains virtually unaffected by high levels of humidity, moisture or liquids. This sets the resistor apart from other metal-oxide-film resistors, which suffer from rapidly increasing or decreasing resistance under the same conditions.

The RR03J2K0TB through hole resistor is available in ultralow resistance packages from 0.5 ohms up to 5M ohms. It is also a widely used latching device, which detects certain analog inputs and switches on or off accordingly. This type of latching device is capable of withstanding high voltage, current, and temperature ranges.

The RR03J2K0TB through hole resistor is an excellent choice for applications where reliability and long-term stability are key. The device is particularly well-suited to power and test circuits, stabilizers, pulse generators, and compensating circuits in industrial process control systems.
