3296P-1-200

Trimmer Potentiometers

Trimmer Potentiometers are a type of electronic potnetiometer, a three-terminal resistive component used for either variable voltage division or amplification of a signal. The 3296P-1-200 is a versatile multi-turn trimmer potentiometer which offers a unique combination of resistance range and contacts qualtiy. It is designed for applications where precise setting and reliable performance are required.

Application Field

The 3296P-1-200 potentiometer is specifically designed for a wide range of electronic equipment applications. It is widely used in telecommunications, navigation, medical, automotive, office equipment, instrumentation, and process control. It is also commonly used to provide user adjustable voltage division, such as in audio equipment.

Working Principle

The 3296P-1-200 features a highly reliable ceramic core construction that provides long-term, repeatable performance. The use of three connection pins allows for adjustment of the resistance value by manually rotating the potentiometer shaft. By rotating the shaft, the internal wiper moves along the highly resistive track, thereby changing the value of the resistance. The ceramic construction also provides remarkable temperature stability, allowing for precise adjustment over the entire temperature range.

The 3296P-1-200 is particularly suited for use in applications requiring long-term accuracy, high repeatability, and reliability. The wiper contact is made of platinum alloy, providing excellent electrical contact and wear resistance. The cermet element also helps to dampen vibration, further improving the reliability and repeatability of the device.

Conclusion

The 3296P-1-200 is a versatile trimmer potentiometer that is designed for applications requiring reliable, repeatable performance. By utilizing a ceramic core design and platinum alloy wiper contact, the 3296P-1-200 offers excellent temperature stability, high repeatability, and reliable performance, making it the perfect solution for a variety of demanding applications.
