Trimmer Potentiometers

A trimmer potentiometer, also known as a trimpot, is a small, manually-adjusted variable resistor. It is an electrical component with three terminals which functions as a variable voltage divider. It is commonly used as an adjustable voltage divider for the adjustment of circuits or in the calibration of equipment. Typically, trim pots are used in applications where a precise adjustment is required, such as in amplifiers, sound systems, TV sets and other audio/video equipment. The 45JR5KLFT7 series of trimmer potentiometers is manufactured by Osawa Electronics and is designed for use in high-performance circuits.

Application Field

The 45JR5KLFT7 series of trimmer potentiometers are mainly used in the precision calibration and adjustment of systems. Applications include audio-video equipment, sound and pattern recognition systems, digital audio systems, LCD displays, and industrial equipment. The 45JR5KLFT7 series is also suitable for use in racing and medical systems which require precise control of parameters.

Working Principle

Trimmer potentiometers are typically constructed as a three-terminal device with a smaller conductive path connecting the wiper and either end of the resistive element, otherwise known as the slider. Through the manual action of a rotary actuator, the slider is moved to variable positions along the resistance track. This establishes a variable amount of resistance between the wiper terminal and either end of the resistive track, thus regulating the voltage output.

The use of trimmer potentiometers contributes to increased accuracy and precision in a circuit, due to its ability to finely adjust the output voltage. As the use of trimmer potentiometers results in precise and consistent output voltage, they are particularly suitable for high power applications. The 45JR5KLFT7 series meets the needs of these demanding applications, due to its superior reliability and long operating life.

The 45JR5KLFT7 series is also designed with a high tolerance to high temperatures, making them ideal for applications in extreme environments. The series also comes with an option of internal switches for selection of the desired voltage range. This makes the device extremely versatile and can be used in a wide variety of different applications. Additionally, the 45JR5KLFT7 series comes with a gold plated panel, which provides a high degree of protection against corrosion.
