Research Summary
A potentiometer, often referred to as a pot, is an adjustable resistor with three terminals used in electronic circuits. It functions as a variable voltage divider, allowing the user to manually adjust the resistance and, consequently, the voltage output. The typical construction includes a resistive element and a sliding contact or wiper that moves along the resistor, dividing it into two sections. By turning the knob or shaft connected to the wiper, the resistance between the wiper and either end of the resistor changes. This variability makes potentiometers widely used for controlling volume in audio devices, adjusting brightness in displays, and tuning in electronic circuits. Potentiometers come in various forms, including rotary and linear types, each suited to specific applications where manual control of resistance is necessary for adjusting electrical parameters.
