Through Hole Resistors

Through hole resistors are electronic components that dissipate energy, minimize current, and provide impedance to the flow of higher voltage electrical signals. In the days of tube radios, the resistors were typically large, wire wound devices with a single hard-wired element. Today they come in a variety of forms and packages, such as the SQP40AJB-150R.

SQP40AJB-150R Application Field

The SQP40AJB-150R is specifically designed for through-hole applications. It is a surface mount resistor with 2 watt dissipation capacity and a rated voltage of 150V. This resistor is primarily used in consumer electronics, particularly where precision components such as thermistors or strain gauges are required. It is also used in other electronic applications such as power supply interference filtering and voltage regulation.

This resistor features a low temperature coefficient, which helps to maintain an accurate resistance value over a wide temperature range. It also offers excellent surge protection and can be used in both parallel and series circuits. The SQP40AJB-150R has a high reliability and is a great choice for applications where cost is not the only factor due to its stability and long-term reliability.

SQP40AJB-150R Working Principle

The SQP40AJB-150R resistor works through the principle of electrical resistance. This principle applies to any type of resistor, including those used in tube radios and those in modern electronic devices. Resistance of a resistor occurs when an electric current passes through it. The current is forced to flow through pathways that are composed of atoms, each of which contains a positively charged nucleus.

As the current passes through the resistor\'s path, the atoms vibrate and bump into each other, which causes the current to decrease. This decrease in current is known as resistance. In order to fix this problem, designers and engineers use different materials with varying resistance values in resistors. This is what makes the SQP40AJB-150R ideal for many applications.

The SQP40AJB-150R is designed to provide a precise resistance value along with maximum reliability and efficiency. This makes it an ideal component for many types of electronic applications that require consistent results. Whether it is installed into consumer electronics or military equipment, the SQP40AJB-150R will offer excellent performance and can be tailored to fit any design or application.
