Slide Potentiometers are a type of electronically-controlled resistor that can be adjusted via a sliding mechanism. The most common application of these devices is in audio and video equipment, where they serve as a volume control or an audio mixer. But they have many other uses in a variety of fields as well. The PDV15-31P-102B is a small slide-potentiometer that provides an incredibly simple and reliable means to adjust the resistance of a circuit.

The resistance of the PDV15-31P-102B is determined by the relative position of a metal triangle slide against a contact pad. The slide is connected to a wiper arm, which causes a varying resistance between the two contact points. The nominal resistance value is 15kOhms. As the slide is moved back and forth, the resistance changes accordingly. The resistance of the PDV15-31P-102B is adjustable from 1.0kOhms up to 15kOhms. The total travel of the metal slide is approximately 14mm.

The PDV15-31P-102B is designed to be used in electronic circuits, though it can also be used as a volume adjustment in any application where a potentiometer would be used. The device requires a voltage of 5V and draws a maximum operating current of 50mA. It is rated for temperature ranges of -20C to +85C and has an operating life of 500,000 cycles. The unit also has a temperature coefficient of 0.005/C and a dielectric strength of 2000VAC/min.

The PDV15-31P-102B is particularly useful for controlling the level of input signals, adjusting the sensitivity of a circuit, or controlling the level of an output signal. For example, it can be used in applications such as industrial process control, amplifier level controls, motor speed control, or lighting dimmers. The device’s small size, combined with its adjustable resistance range and accuracy make it well suited to a variety of applications.

The working principle behind the PDV15-31P-102B is relatively simple. As the triangle slide is moved along the contact pad, the resistance changes accordingly. This change in the resistance creates a variable voltage across the terminals of the unit, which can then be used to control whatever system it is connected to.

The PDV15-31P-102B is a small, easy to use, and incredibly versatile slide potentiometer. Its adjustable resistance range, simple design, and accurate operation make it an ideal choice for a wide range of applications. Whether you need to adjust the level of an input signal or adjust the sensitivity of a circuit, the PDV15-31P-102B can help get the job done.
