The 10k Single Gear Potentiometer is an adjustable resistor with a resistance range of 0 to 10 kΩ. It features a single gear mechanism for manual adjustment of resistance. This type of potentiometer is commonly used in various electronic circuits to control voltage, adjust signal levels, and fine-tune parameters.
Key Features:
- Resistance: 10 kΩ
- Type: Single gear (single-turn) potentiometer
- Adjustment Mechanism: Manual adjustment using a rotary knob
- Mounting Type: Typically through-hole or surface-mount
- Material: Usually made from conductive carbon or metal film
- Resistance Range: 0 to 10 kΩ
- Tolerance: Typically ±10% or ±20% (depends on the model)
- Number of Turns: Single-turn (single gear)
- Maximum Power Rating: Usually up to 0.5W
- Temperature Coefficient: Varies by model, typically around ±100 ppm/°C
- Mounting Type: Through-hole or surface-mount (varies by design)
- Adjustment Type: Rotary knob or shaft
- Volume Control: Used in audio equipment to adjust volume levels.
- Signal Adjustment: Ideal for fine-tuning signals in electronic circuits.
- Calibration: Useful for calibrating and setting parameters in various devices.
- Control Interfaces: Applied in user interfaces for controlling devices and systems.
- Prototyping: Commonly used in electronic prototypes and experimental setups.
