3266X-1-501LF

Trimmer potentiometers, also known as trimmers, trim pots, or preset pots, are variable resistors that are manually adjusted with a small screwdriver or other tool to an intermediate resistance value. The 3266X-1-501LF is a trimmer potentiometer with three terminals. Its general application field is for use as an adjustable rheostat, variable resistor, adjustable divider, or voltage regulator.

The 3266X-1-501LF adjustable trimmer potentiometer is made up of two sets of resistors in a single package. An internal preset resistor is connected between terminal 1 and terminal 3 and has a nominal resistance value of 510 Ohm ± 10%. A variable resistor is connected between terminal 2 and 3.

The working principle of the 3266X-1-501LF potentiometer is simple. Turning the adjustable shaft clockwise or counterclockwise adjusts the variable resistor which in turn adjusts the final output resistance value at the overall adjustable terminal. There are 304 steps for each full turn of the shaft. The output resistance can easily be adjusted between 30 and 470 Ohms when terminal 1 is connected to terminal 3.

This trimmer potentiometer is particularly suitable for high reliability and harsh environment applications. It can be used in high temperature and other harsh environment conditions up to +105ºC. The 3266X-1-501LF also has long operating life due to low contact resistance and less wear, and it has good mechanical and thermal stability. In addition, it has low noise, low temperature coefficient and high insulation resistance.

The 3266X-1-501LF adjustable trimmer potentiometer is a widely used component in many applications, such as volume controls, frequency dividers, signal mixing, feedback circuits, fader control, and voltage regulation. It can also be used in different electronic projects, such as amateur radios, guitar amplifiers, and other audio equipment. Most of these uses require a variable resistor that can be easily adjusted with a screwdriver or other tool.

In conclusion, the 3266X-1-501LF trimmer potentiometer is a widely used adjustable resistor component with a variety of applications in many different fields. Its adjustable resistive element has a long life and it is suitable for high reliability and harsh environment applications. It has good mechanical and thermal stability, low noise, low temperature coefficient and high insulation resistance.
