Sparkfun Rotary Potentiometer - 100k Ohm, Linear (Panel Mount)

The Rotary Potentiometer - 100k Ohm, Linear (Panel Mount) by Sparkfun is an adjustable device that changes resistance when you turn its dial. This Bourns potentiometer features a 6.35mm metal knurled shaft diameter, solder lug terminals, and lacks detents. Its 100K linear taper allows for a wide range of resistance changes. By connecting VCC to an outer pin and GND to the other, the center pin will have a voltage that varies from 0 to VCC based on the potentiometer's rotation. This feature makes it possible to hook the center pin to an ADC on a microcontroller, providing a variable input from the user. This potentiometer is an excellent tool for creating versatile user interfaces.The package comes with the Rotary Potentiometer - 100k Ohm, Linear, a mounting nut, and a washer. These components ensure that the potentiometer can be securely mounted on a panel. The potentiometer is also easy to install, making it a convenient choice for various applications.For detailed specifications and information, refer to the provided datasheet. This comprehensive document provides all the information needed to understand and utilize the potentiometer effectively. It's a valuable resource for both beginners and experienced users alike.
