Today, potentiometers dominate the market for linear and rotary path and position sensing. That is not to say that there aren’t other position-measuring systems available on the market (see Table 1), ...

Potentiometers, sometimes called “pots,” are used frequently on modern farm equipment. In simple terms, potentiometers connect to a shaft or linkage that in turn is connected to some part of the ...

The PTNS slide potentiometers from Same Sky are panel-mount devices offering resistance values from 1 to 500 kΩ with linear ...

Same Sky’s Motion and Control Group announced the addition of slide potentiometers to its potentiometers product portfolio.

Designers and procurement engineers requiring a finely tuned analog output controlled by a digital input have two options: digital potentiometers and digital-to-analog converters (DACs). Both use ...

Digital potentiometers are digitally controlled variable resistors that can be used in place of their functionally equivalent mechanical counterparts. While digital potentiometers offer comparable ...

What are digital potentiometers, and how are they used? Digital potentiometers are integrated circuits that implement a resistive ladder and a digital means of addressing a particular tap on the ...

A line of hollow-shaft potentiometers features an annodized aluminum, thermo plastic design with diameters ranging from 0.860-in. to 2.620-in. and a rotational life of 5 million to 50 million cycles ...
