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 ...
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 ...
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.
Integrated circuit (IC) shorter "U" (unit) is preferred instead of "IC" V: Vacuum tube: VR: Voltage regulator (voltage reference), or variable resistor (potentiometer / trimmer / rheostat) voltage regulators are often "U" for IC, pots and trimmers often "R" for resistor X
A Maryland jury finds 'Real Housewives of Potomac' star Karen Huger guilty of driving under the influence and several other charges after she was arrested earlier this year.
A potentiostat is a control and measuring device. It comprises an electric circuit which controls the potential across the cell by sensing changes in its resistance, varying accordingly the current supplied to the system: a higher resistance will result in a decreased current, while a lower resistance will result in an increased current, in order to keep the voltage constant as described by ...
