470 Ohm Cermet

SKU: 19GBKSNCK9
A cermet preset is a small, PCB-mountable variable resistor with three terminals. As the adjustment screw is turned, the voltage across its terminals changes accordingly. Variable resistors are used to regulate voltage levels in a circuit based on requirements. Typically, the two outer terminals are connected to Vcc and ground (0V), while the middle terminal provides a variable output voltage...

FAQ

Q1. What is a potentiometer?

A potentiometer is a three-terminal variable resistor used to adjust voltage levels in a circuit. It works by varying resistance through a rotating or sliding contact.

Q2. What are the main terminals of a potentiometer?

A potentiometer has three terminals: two outer terminals connected to a resistive track, and one middle terminal called the wiper, which moves along the track.

Q3. What are the common types of potentiometers?

Common types include rotary potentiometers, linear (slider) potentiometers, and digital potentiometers.

Q4. Where are potentiometers commonly used?

Potentiometers are used in volume controls, light dimmers, motor speed control, and tuning circuits in electronic devices.

Q5. How does a potentiometer control voltage?

A potentiometer acts as a voltage divider. By adjusting the wiper position, it changes the output voltage between the wiper and one of the outer terminals.

A cermet preset is a small, PCB-mountable variable resistor with three terminals. As the adjustment screw is turned, the voltage across its terminals changes accordingly.

Variable resistors are used to regulate voltage levels in a circuit based on requirements. Typically, the two outer terminals are connected to Vcc and ground (0V), while the middle terminal provides a variable output voltage ranging from 0V to Vcc as the cermet preset is adjusted.

Applications:

  • Used as a voltage divider
  • Ideal for generating an adjustable output voltage
