Trimmer Potentiometers

Trimmer potentiometers are commonly used as adjustable components in circuits. The 3296P-1-102LF is a type of trimmer potentiometer commonly used in circuit applications. This article will discuss the 3296P-1-102LF’s application field and working principle.

Application Field

The 3296P-1-102LF is a single-turn trimmer potentiometer with a rotational angle of 270 degrees that is typically used for precision adjustments. It operates in the linear region to adjust the resistance in the circuit. It is usually used in DC circuits in applications such as adjustable power supplies, variable resistors, feedback control, wave shaping circuits and a variety of other applications.

Working Principle

The 3296P-1-102LF has a conductive contact that slides along the resistive track. This sliding contact provides a linear variation in electrical value or resistance (R) from its maximum value at one end to its minimum value at the other end when it is adjusted by a circle control knob. The resistance value is adjusted by turning the rotary control as the sliding contact moves along the resistive element. This sliding motion results in a change in the resistance presented in the circuit, thus allowing for the desired amount of adjustment.

The 3296P-1-102LF trimmer potentiometer operates as a variable resistor. It has a rotational angle of 270 degrees, which means that it can offer precise changes in resistance values as it is adjusted. Compliance is a key factor when it comes to this type of potentiometer. The 3296P-1-102LF has a wide compliance range of 2 to 10 volts. It is extremely sensitive and silent during operation and it provides robust durability. The 3296P-1-102LF has a tolerance of ±20%.
