- Precise resistance control:
- Provide high-precision resistance adjustment, allowing users to set specific resistance values within a defined range
- Long lifespan:
- The conductive plastic resistive element ensures a long operating life with minimal wear and tear, guaranteeing consistent performance over time
- Compact size:
- Available in a variety of compact sizes
- Can be tailored to suit applications with space constraints
- Smooth and linear response:
- Deliver a smooth and linear output, ensuring precise control and adjustment
- Resistive element:
- The core of the potentiometer is a resistive element made of conductive plastic, designed with linear tapers to provide specific resistance characteristics
- Wiper:
- Movable wiper, in the form of a brush or a sliding contact, makes electrical contact with the resistive element
- As the wiper's position changes, the resistance between the wiper and the endpoints of the resistive element varies, allowing for precise adjustments
- Terminal configuration:
- A range of terminal configurations, including solder lug, turret, and wire leads
