Rotary Potentiometers

Rotary potentiometers, also known as variable resistors, are one of the most important components in electrical and electronic circuits. They are designed to provide a continuous variable resistance which can be adjusted by changing its angular position either manually or electronically.

The P261P-D1AS2CB50K is a multi turn rotary potentiometer which primarily features an angle adjustable shaft. This rotary potentiometer offers an electrical resistance that is adjustable using a variable resistance governed by the length of the conductive track and the mechanical angle adjustment. It has a value of 5 kOhm (1 Ohm per turn), 20 turns, and a max current of 2 A.

Working Principle

The P261P-D1AS2CB50K functions as a variable resistor and uses a conductive path of carbon tape over a linear element to allow a current passing from one end to the other. Since the carbon tape is adjustable, the resulting resistance is also adjustable. The resistance is adjusted by changing the angular position of the rotary potentiometer\'s adjustable shaft.

When in operation, it allows a user to adjust the resistance for various applications, such as controlling the brightness of LEDs and providing variable voltages for numerous circuits, by turning the adjustable shaft. This resistance can either be a linear or a logarithmic variation to meet the user\'s specific requirements.

Application Field

The P261P-D1AS2CB50K is a great component for power electronics applications. It is used to precisely adjust the voltage output in numerous applications such as automotive, industrial, medical, telecom, defence, and consumer electronics. It also finds use in audio level control, dimmers and potentiometers, or any other application requiring an adjustable voltage output.

The rotary potentiometer is also extensively used in motor controllers, medical position sensors, robotics, speed controllers, solar panels, and inverter controllers. It is extremely reliable and robust thanks to its voltage rating of 200 VDC and its dielectric strength of 500 VDC.
