A diagram showing a wiring modification for a Les Paul or a similar electric guitar with two humbuckers. Wiring schemes using four push-pull pots for additional pickup combinations were made popular by Led Zeppelin guitarist Jimmy Page and later produced as a signature model by Gibson. The modification shown in this diagram is an evolution of ...
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 ...
The Contemporary models that use a TBX tone control use 500 kΩ volume pots and use 0.022 μF tone capacitors. Serial numbers [ edit ] The early Fender Japan Contemporary series serial numbers from 1984 to 1987 follow the Fender USA serial number format of E = eighties and the first digit of the serial number representing the year.
A wiring diagram is a simplified conventional pictorial representation of an electrical circuit. It shows the components of the circuit as simplified shapes, and the power and signal connections between the devices. A wiring diagram usually gives information about the relative position and arrangement of devices and terminals on the devices, to ...
A speaker L pad is a special configuration of rheostats used to control volume while maintaining a constant load impedance on the output of the audio amplifier. [1] It consists of a parallel and a series rheostat connected in an "L" configuration. As one increases in resistance, the other decreases, thus maintaining a constant impedance, at ...
Voltage divider. In electronics, a voltage divider (also known as a potential divider) is a passive linear circuit that produces an output voltage ( Vout) that is a fraction of its input voltage ( Vin ). Voltage division is the result of distributing the input voltage among the components of the divider. A simple example of a voltage divider is ...
Digital potentiometer. A digital potentiometer (also called a resistive digital-to-analog converter, [1] or informally a digipot) is a digitally-controlled electronic component that mimics the analog functions of a potentiometer. It is often used for trimming and scaling analog signals by microcontrollers .
Trimmer (electronics) 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. They are common in precision circuitry ...
