The 4816P-002-560 is a thick film bussed resistor network manufactured by Bourns Inc. This component integrates multiple resistors within a single package, all sharing a common connection, often referred to as a 'bus.' This design simplifies circuit layouts and reduces the number of discrete components needed, making it ideal for applications where space is a premium and efficient design is crucial.

Applications

• Pull-up Resistors: Commonly used in digital circuits to ensure a defined high state when an input is not actively driven.
• Pull-down Resistors: Similarly used to ensure a defined low state when an input is floating.
• Keyboard Matrix: Provides a cost-effective way to implement keyboard scanning circuitry.
• LED Current Limiting: Can be used in conjunction with other components to limit current through multiple LEDs.
• Digital Logic Circuits: Simplifies the implementation of logic gates and other digital functions.

Features

• Bussed Configuration: All resistors are connected to a common bus, simplifying wiring.
• Thick Film Technology: Offers excellent stability and reliability over a wide temperature range.
• SIP Package: Single In-line Package is easy to insert and solder onto printed circuit boards.
• Multiple Resistors: Contains multiple resistors in a single package, reducing component count and board space.
• RoHS Compliant: Meets environmental standards for lead-free manufacturing.

Benefits

• Space Saving: Reduces board space requirements compared to using individual resistors.
• Simplified Assembly: Easier to handle and place during the manufacturing process.
• Improved Reliability: Consistent performance across all resistors in the network.
• Reduced Component Count: Simplifies the bill of materials and reduces inventory management overhead.
• Cost Effective: Can lower the overall cost of the circuit by reducing component count and assembly time.

Additional Details

The 4816P-002-560 typically features 16 pins and contains 8 resistors connected to a common bus. The '560' designation likely indicates a resistance value of 56 Ohms per resistor, but this should be confirmed with the Bourns datasheet. The power rating per resistor and for the entire network will be specified in the datasheet. The operating temperature range is generally between -55°C and +125°C. Always consult the specific Bourns datasheet for accurate specifications and performance characteristics.
