Add intuitive analogue control to your project.

> ⚠ Deal is for shelf stock only — any additional stock will be at the normal price.

## Pricing

- **Price:** $8.71 (inc GST) — $7.92 AUD, exc GST

## Availability & dispatch

- In stock, ships same business day if ordered before 2PM (Australia/Sydney).
- We can dispatch 107 today, and up to 500 more in 6–42 days.

## How to buy

- **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=CE08502:1` (comma-separated SKU:qty pairs) and share the link. Opening it shows a confirmation page with live pricing and stock before anything is added to the cart.
- **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/CE08502:1.md` for live line prices (inc & exc GST, quantity discounts applied), stock and dispatch estimates, and totals. Append `/to/{AU-postcode}` (or `/to/{country-code}:{postcode}`) before `.md` for delivery options and prices to that destination. Unknown, retired, or out-of-stock SKUs are flagged. (Query form `cart/link.md?items=...` also works but some robots parsers refuse query strings here.)
- **Checkout** is completed on-site and includes a captcha at the payment step. Share the cart link; checkout takes it from there.
- **Search the catalogue:** `https://core-electronics.com.au/search/{query}.md` (URL-encode the query; pages 2-3 at `search/{query}/{page}.md`; `search.md?q=` also works)

## Description

Add intuitive analogue control to your project with a **PiicoDev® Potentiometer (Slide)** - also available in [rotary-format](https://core-electronics.com.au/piicodev-potentiometer-rotary.html). Use great pre-written examples to read the Pot, which returns a value between 0-100 by default. The Pot is re-scalable, meaning you can modify the range of values it returns across its linear range. Start small or create a huge control desk! There are two PiicoDev connectors for daisy-chained connections and four ID switches that allow connecting multiple modules together. Use PiicoDev adapters and cables for solder-free connections and follow the getting-started [guide](https://core-electronics.com.au/guides/piicodev/piicodev-potentiometer-getting-started-guide/) to begin programming this sensor in MicroPython with your favourite development platform.

Here are some of the features we have baked into PiicoDev:

- **Unified MicroPython libraries.** The same MicroPython code examples will work on all supported platforms.
- **Simple-and-expandable connections.** Modules can be connected using a 4-pin connector and daisy-chained to expand projects.
- **Breakout pins.** Every module has a breakout section for optional advanced uses.
- **Consistent size.** We have taken care to ensure modules are consistent sizes so that they easy for 3D printing cases, stacking and experimenting with.
- **Creative freedom.** Simmer all of these features together and you end up with lots of creative freedom while still being a hands-on electronics experience.
 
PiicoDev modules are designed by our team in Newcastle and manufactured in Australia and overseas. They’re made for makers and educators alike — affordable, reliable, and easy to use. [Get in touch](https://core-electronics.com.au/contacts/) if you have any questions.
