Slide Potentiometers

PS60M-0MD1AR20K Application Field and Working Principle

Slide Potentiometers are widely used for controlling, measuring and regulating voltage output in many electronic systems, such as listening volume, TV brightness, computer performance or industrial systems. Among them, PS60M-0MD1AR20K Slide Potentiometer is designed for loads up to 20K ohms and operating voltage up to 35 V, and it is marked standard direction of rotation (CW/CCW).

In this type of slide potentiometer, a sliding contact (wiper) is moved along a resistive element to form a voltage divider. The movement of the wiper is proportional to the input signal. As the contact slides along the element, a voltage is output from the contact point; the output voltage is determined by the position of the wiper and the voltage of the power source.

PS60M-0MD1AR20K Slide Potentiometers feature a screwdriver-adjustable stop to keep the wiper from sliding off of the resistive element. The adjustable stop provides for future adjustment, and the built-in socket enables extended range of adjustment beyond the stop. Typical applications include industrial equipment, medical devices, instrumentation, robotics, and computer-operated systems. In addition, PS60M-0MD1AR20K Slide Potentiometers have minimum and maximum voltages, track resistance, linearity, temperature coefficient, and input power connections.

PS60M-0MD1AR20K Slide Potentiometers are designed to be used in a wide range of applications, including DC motor control for machine building, precision regulation of power supplies, linear speed control, and audio applications. PS60M-0MD1AR20K Slide Potentiometers have a high linearity at 20 K ohm and an operating voltage range up to 35 V. In addition, the device is designed with superior resistance to temperature fluctuations.

The working principle of PS60M-0MD1AR20K Slide Potentiometers is simple. The wiper is connected to a voltage divider, which is made up of at least two parallel resistors. As the wiper slides along the resistive element, the circuit is completed and current flows between the resistive element and the wiper. The voltage output is determined by the wiper\'s position and the voltage of the power source. This voltage is then used to control a load.

In conclusion, PS60M-0MD1AR20K Slide Potentiometers have become a reliable and powerful tool for regulating and controlling voltage output in a wide range of electronic systems. Their working principle is simple yet efficient, and they provide a straight-forward, hassle-free solution for a variety of applications.
