Resistor Networks, Arrays

Resistors are widely used components in electrical circuits. When connected in a specific manner they can be used as networks, arrays, of resistors. These networks, arrays, can provide a variety of functions such as potentiometers, voltage dividers or power control. The SLD2X10K00/30K00BB application field and working principle helps to understand how these networks, arrays, work.

What is the SLD2X10K00/30K00BB

The SLD2X10K00/30K00BB is a component of a resistor network which is based on an array of two resistors of different values place in parallel. This component has terminals that attach to power, ground and one or two control inputs. This is the starting point from which networks, arrays, are created and the component helps to understand the working principle of such networks, arrays.

The Application Field of a Resistor Network

Resistor networks, arrays, can be used for many different applications ranging from voltage dividers, potentiometers, current limiting, power and many more. They form the basis for any circuit where control over input voltage or current are necessary. With the use of different types of resistors, combinations can be used to create the desired result.

Working Principle of a Resistor Network Array

When two or more resistors are placed in parallel, they form a resistor network. The working principle of such a network is that the voltage across each resistor is equal, but the current flowing through each resistor is relative to its resistance. This relies on Kirchhoff’s current law which states that the current into a point in an electrical circuit is equal to the sum of the currents away from the point. Therefore, if one resistor has a greater resistance than the other, more current will flow through it.

As previously stated, this is the starting point of any resistor network and the SLD2X10K00/30K00BB allows user to create networks using two resistors of different resistance. This gives the user the ability to create an array of resistors which can be used for many different applications.

Conclusion:

Resistor Networks, Arrays, are very useful components when it comes to controlling input voltages and/or currents. The SLD2X10K00/30K00BB application field and working principle serves as the starting point for understanding how resistor networks, arrays, can be used in various applications.
