Potentiometers

Potentiometers are a ratiometric, variable resistor which allows you to control the flow of current using physical input, and they come in all kinds of shapes and sizes.

Rotary

Rotary potentiometers are commonly used in user interfaces to create intuitive, rotary control panels that have physical end points.

Digital

Digital pots are nifty devices which communicate with a microcontroller digitally, and have a cascading resistor ladder which creates an analog path of resistance.

Digital Potentiometer - 10K

Rating:
90% of 100

2 Reviews

SKU: COM-10613 Brand: Sparkfun

Potentiometers are incredibly useful, whether you’re controlling the volume on your stereo or the ‘mood lighting’ in your room. The problem with traditional potentiometers is the fact that your microcontroller doesn’t have an easy way to interface with them. Digital Potentiometers solve that problem by allowing you to control a voltage splitter with digital signals.
