Trimmer Potentiometers: 67ZR500LF Application Field and Working Principle

Trimmer potentiometers are a type of adjustable multi-turn potentiometers. A trimmer potentiometer’s name comes from the fact that its wiper arm is capable of being adjusted by a small tool, such as a screwdriver. The name “trimmer” is derived from trimming or fine-tuning the position of the wiper arm using a small tool. The 67ZR500LF trimmer potentiometer is a popular trimmer pot used in many applications.

The 67ZR500LF trimmer potentiometer is a cost-effective option for applications that require high resolution knobs, high current, and reliable lifespans. It is a ceramic trimmer pot with five linear tracking turns and a 10mm long Turn Count Dial. It has an extremely low temperature coefficient of resistance, operating from 0 to 125 degrees Celsius, and features an adjustable resistance range of zero to 300 ohms. This part is typically used as an adjustable resistor in high-current interfaces, such as audio and video circuits.

Test Function

A trimmer potentiometer is a three-terminal resistor with a circular wiper and contact. It functions as a variable resistor, adjusted with a screwdriver or any other tool. The unit of the adjustable resistance range of a potentiometer is ohms. The voltage in or out of the device should remain constant and independent of current or voltage in the circuit. As the wiper arm turns, it slides across a resistive track providing a continuous ratio of a specific resistance value.

Working Principle

The basic working principle of a 67ZR500LF trimmer potentiometer is the same as that of any other trimmer pot. The center terminal is connected to the wiper arm, which acts as a voltage divider between two other terminals. The terminal on the right side of the wiper arm is connected to the circuit, and the terminal on the left side of the wiper arm is connected to ground. Turning the wiper arm adjusts the voltage on the circuit, allowing the user to adjust the input or output voltage of the circuit. This makes the 67ZR500LF trimmer pot suitable for voltage adjustment and resistance measurement applications.

Application Field

The 67ZR500LF trimmer pot has many applications in industry and consumer electronics. It is typically used as an adjustable resistor in audio and video circuits. It can be used to adjust the volume of a speaker, adjust gain or equalization adjustments in audio systems, or control the brightness of a display. It can also be used in the automotive industry for spark plug gap or emissions control sensors. The 67ZR500LF is also often used in solar cell voltage adjustment and control systems.

Conclusion

The 67ZR500LF trimmer potentiometer is a popular trimmer pot, used in many applications due to its cost-effectiveness, high resolution knobs, high current and reliable lifespan. Its working principle is based on a voltage divider effect produced by a sliding wiper arm on a resistive track. It is typically used as an adjustable resistor in audio and video circuits, and in a variety of other industries.
