Potentiometer

IMG_0736

Potentiometer (Pot) is another class of variable resistors and is used as an adjustable voltage divider. It consists of a fixed resistance track having connections at both ends and a sliding contact, called wiper, which moves along this track by turning the spindle. If only one of the connections and wiper are used, it behaves as a variable resistor or rheostat. In case wiper is not used, it will offer fixed resistance across the two connections. They are specified by their fixed value resistance.
