TNP10SC10R0FE

Through Hole Resistors

Through hole resistors are electronic components that primarily act as a voltage divider, but their construction can also create very nonlinear resistances, depending on the resistor type. The size of a through hole resistor can range from 52 mils to 482 mils, with the most commonly used size being 1/4 watt or 1/2 watt.

TNP10SC10R0FE Application Field and Working Principle

The TNP10SC10R0FE is a type of through hole resistor. It is typically used in large circuits requiring frequent current adjustment, such as high power LED or solar panel systems. It is also commonly used as a voltage divider—a circuit in which two resistors are connected in series with the output voltage proportional to the ratio of their resistances.

The TNP10SC10R0FE is a 10 ohm resistor with a maximum power of 0.5 watts. It has a rated voltage of 250 volts and a maximum allowable voltage of 400 volts. Its temperature coefficient is 0.02%, and it is capable of operating between -55°C and +175°C.

The TNP10SC10R0FE is composed of two metal oxide layers, one on top of the other. One layer is composed of resistor-grade tin oxide, while the other is composed of silicon-doped n-type impurity materials. Together, these layers form a \'Peltier effect\' that produces a negative temperature coefficient of resistance.

The feature of this type of resistor that makes it best suited for a wide range of power applications is its ability to dissipate heat without failing. Its large resistance, high intensity, and low temperature coefficient give it an advantage over other types of through hole resistors when it comes to high power applications.

In summary, the TNP10SC10R0FE is a through hole resistor that is ideal for use in high power applications, such as LEDs and solar panel systems. It has a large resistance, high intensity, and low temperature coefficient, allowing it to safely dissipate heat without failing under a range of conditions.
