2. Potentiometer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potentiometer

   The 'log pot', that is, a potentiometer has a resistance, taper, or, "curve" (or law) of a logarithmic (log) form, is used as the volume control in audio power amplifiers, where it is also called an "audio taper pot", because the amplitude response of the human ear is approximately logarithmic. It ensures that on a volume control marked 0 to 10 ...

3. Trimmer (electronics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trimmer_(electronics)

   Trimmer potentiometers or "trimpots" A trimmer, or preset, is a miniature adjustable electrical component. It is meant to be set correctly when installed in some device, and never seen or adjusted by the device's user. Trimmers can be variable resistors (potentiometers), variable capacitors, or trimmable inductors.

4. Potentiometer (measuring instrument) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potentiometer_(measuring...

   A potentiometer being calibrated and then measuring an unknown voltage. R 1 is the resistance of the entire resistance wire. The arrow head represents the moving wiper.. In this circuit, the ends of a uniform resistance wire R 1 are connected to a regulated DC supply V S for use as a voltage divider.

5. Motorized potentiometer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motorized_potentiometer

   Motorized potentiometers are used in industrial controls. [1] Motorized potentiometers may be used for remote control applications. [3] Motorized potentiometers can be used to build electrical/electronic analog computers. The motorized potentiometer can act as a computing element, but also as a way to convert a physical into an electrical value.

6. Digital potentiometer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_potentiometer

   While quite similar to normal potentiometers, digital potentiometers are constrained by current limit in the range of tens of milliamperes. Also, most digital potentiometers limit the voltage range on the two input terminals (of the resistor) to the digital supply range (e.g. 0–5 VDC), so additional circuitry may be required to replace a conventional potentiometer, (although digital ...

9. String potentiometer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_potentiometer

   A string potentiometer is a transducer used to detect and measure linear position and velocity using a flexible cable and spring-loaded spool. Other common names include string pot , cable-extension transducer , draw wire sensor , and yo-yo sensor .
