SM204031005JE - Ohmite

SM204031005JE Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the thermal resistance of the SM204031005JE?
  The thermal resistance of the SM204031005JE is typically around 10°C/W, but it's recommended to consult Ohmite's application notes or contact their technical support for more specific information.
• Is the SM204031005JE suitable for high-frequency applications?
  The SM204031005JE is a wirewound resistor, which may not be the best choice for high-frequency applications due to its inductive nature. For high-frequency applications, consider using a thin-film or thick-film resistor instead.
• Can I use the SM204031005JE in a high-temperature environment?
  The SM204031005JE has a maximum operating temperature of 250°C, but its power rating decreases as the temperature increases. Consult Ohmite's datasheet and application notes for derating information and ensure the resistor is suitable for your specific application.
• Is the SM204031005JE resistant to moisture and humidity?
  The SM204031005JE has a conformal coating that provides some protection against moisture and humidity. However, it's not hermetically sealed, so it's not suitable for applications where it will be exposed to high humidity or immersion in water.
• Can I use the SM204031005JE in a high-vibration environment?
  The SM204031005JE is designed to withstand moderate vibration, but it's not suitable for extreme vibration environments. If your application involves high vibration, consider using a resistor with a more robust construction, such as a ceramic or metal-clad resistor.
