CT94EZ203

Trimmer Potentiometers are commonly used in various types of operational amplifiers and other electronic circuits, enabling an analog output through changing the resistance of a circuit. CT94EZ203 is a three-terminal precision potentiometer with a wide range of adjustment down to 100 μA. It is characterized by high precision, temperature stability, low drift and noise, as well as high linearity and low hysteresis. It requires a minimum of external components and can be used in a variety of applications.

The CT94EZ203 is a single-turn, metal-film potentiometer with a nominal input of 200 ohms and a total resistance of 200 ohms. It also has a range of adjustment from 100 ohms to 200 ohms. It has three terminals, the adjustable, fixed, and wiper contact which allows the wiper (also known as the slider) to track the resistance element. The adjustable terminal is used to adjust the total resistance value of the circuit and the wiper contact is connected to the external system. The fixed terminal serves as a common ground for the two other terminals, thus forming a complete circuit.

The CT94EZ203 trim potentiometer can be used in various fields, from Aerospace and Medical Instrumentation to Automotive design. Its temperature stability makes it suitable for temperature deprived environment, such as aerospace applications, where mounting conditions are extreme. Furthermore, its low drift and extremely low noise make it an ideal choice for precision operations in medical instrumentation.

The CT94EZ203 can also be used in a variety of automotive applications, allowing users to adjust the acceleration, timing, fuel consumption and other parameters related to engine control. Its minimal external components are especially suitable for applications where space is limited. Furthermore, its high linearity and low hysteresis ensure accuracy when making adjustments.

The working principle of the CT94EZ203 is based on the resistance-to-voltage principle. When a voltage is applied between the two outside terminals, a current flows through the circuit which is proportional to the resistance. The wiper contact of the trim potentiometer moves from one end to the other, changing the resistance value of the circuit. This caused the voltage to change, as a result of the resistance. The voltage generated is output to the external system and is then used to control various functions in electronic applications.

In conclusion, the CT94EZ203 is a type of trimmer potentiometer that is ideal for applications requiring precise adjustment and low temperature drift. It is a bipolar device which features high linearity, low hysteresis, low noise and extreme temperature stability. The three terminals (fixed, adjustable and wiper) enable the circuit to output a voltage in proportion to the resistance. With these features, the CT94EZ203 is suitable for a variety of real-world applications in Aerospace, Automotive and Medical Instrumentation.
