Working Principle

The P230-1FC15BR10K is a two-terminal, rotary-type potentiometer. This device consists of a resistive element, a contact wiper, and a shaft. When the shaft is rotated, it moves the contact wiper across the resistive element. As a result, the resistance of the device is changed.

The resistance change is directly proportional to the angle of rotation. The P230-1FC15BR10K has a linear and a non-linear resistance range. The linear range is from 0 to 10K ohms and the non-linear range is from 10K to 15K ohms. The device has a resolution of 2 ohms in the linear range and 5 ohms in the non-linear range.

The P230-1FC15BR10K is a durable device with an operating temperature range of -55 to +125 °C. The device is rated for a maximum power dissipation of 2 W. It has a very low temperature coefficient of 1.5 ppm/°C.

Conclusion

The P230-1FC15BR10K is a two-terminal, rotary-type potentiometer suited for audio amplifiers, motor controllers, automotive electronics, and industrial applications. It has a linear resistance range of 0 to 10K ohms and a non-linear range of 10K to 15K ohms. This potentiometer is rated for a maximum power dissipation of 2 W and has a very low temperature coefficient of 1.5 ppm/°C.
