Rotary Potentiometer (5 KOhm)
5.50 EGP
This 5K Ohm (5,000 Ω) rotary potentiometer is optimized for fine-tuning circuits requiring moderate resistance, such as sensor calibration, small motor controls, and precision voltage division. Available in linear (B-taper) or logarithmic (A-taper) versions.
Description
🔧 Key Specifications:
✔ Resistance Value: 5K Ohm (5,000 Ω)
