This 10kΩ linear taper rotary potentiometer provides smooth, variable resistance for user input applications. Connect it to a microcontroller's ADC pin to create volume controls, brightness adjusters, or any project requiring analogue user input. How It Works Connect VCC to one outer pin, GND to the other, and the centre pin outputs a voltage that varies from 0V to VCC based on the knob position. Read this voltage with an ADC to get a variable input value. Key Features 10kΩ Resistance – Standard value for most applications Linear Taper – Resistance changes proportionally with rotation ¼" Mounting Diameter – Standard panel-mount size Three-Pin Design – Simple voltage divider connection Specifications Resistance: 10kΩ Taper: Linear Mounting Diameter: ¼ inch (6.35mm) Ideal For Volume and brightness controls Analogue input for microcontrollers Arduino and Raspberry Pi projects DIY synthesisers and audio projects Resources Datasheet (PDF) How Potentiometers Work
