100?, 10k ½ kw Potentiometer each



SPECIFICATION

  • 100?, 10k
  • A potentiometer is a three-terminal resistor with a sliding or rotating contact that forms an adjustable voltage divider. If only two terminals are used, one end and the wiper, it acts as a variable resistor or rheostat.
  • Potentiometers commonly used to control electrical devices such as volume controls on audio equipment.
  • Potentiometers operated by a mechanism can be used as position transducers, for example, in a joystick.
  • Potentiometers are rarely used to directly control significant power (more than a watt), since the power dissipated in the potentiometer would be comparable to the power in the controlled load
