Thumbwheel PotentiometersA potentiometer is a type of variable resistor that is commonly used in electronic circuits to adjust the amount of resistance in a circuit. Potentiometers are often used to control the volume of a sound system, the brightness of a display, or the position of a servo motor, among many other applications.
Thumbwheel potentiometers are a type of potentiometer that is adjusted using a small, thumb-operated wheel or knob. These types of potentiometers are often used in applications where the resistance needs to be adjusted frequently or easily, such as in audio equipment or consumer electronics. Thumbwheel potentiometers are typically smaller and more compact than other types of potentiometers, and are often used in space-constrained applications.
