Rotary Potentiometers and Rheostats are the two essential components when it comes to electronic applications. Basically a rheostat is a variable resistor that changes the resistance of a circuit while a potentiometer is a three terminal variable resistor used to adjust or control the voltage present in a circuit. With both these components present in today\'s market, it often becomes difficult to decide which one to choose. This decision can be made a lot easier with the help of PTV112-3412A-A203.

The PTV112-3412A-A203 offers a wide range of applications in today\'s modern electronics and works in different ways depending on the type of application it is used for. It is a 12-position rotary potentiometer specifically designed for measuring voltage, current, and frequency in operations such as amplifiers, antenna systems, and remote control systems. It has a three-legged design that allows it to be used both as a potentiometer, as well as a rheostat.

The PTV112-3412A-A203 has a pair of adjustable legs that can be used as a potentiometer. One of these legs is connected to the shaft while the other leg connects to a terminal pin. The adjustable legs serve as variable resistors and can be used to provide an adjustable voltage or current. The device also has a third leg which serves as the contact point with the outside circuit. This third leg allows the device to be used as a rheostat as well, where its resistance is adjusted by rotating the potentiometer\'s shaft.
