Overview

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) ✔ Taper Options:

  • Linear (B-Taper) – Uniform resistance change (ideal for calibration)

  • Logarithmic (A-Taper) – Audio-tapered response (volume controls) ✔ Shaft Type: 6mm D-Shaft (compatible with standard knobs) ✔ Terminals: 3-Pin (Pin 1 & 3 = Fixed Ends, Pin 2 = Wiper) ✔ Power Rating: 0.1W–0.5W (standard) ✔ Rotation Angle: 270°–300° ✔ Mounting Style: Panel-mount (threaded) or PCB-mount ✔ Material: Durable plastic/metal housing, carbon film element


✨ Key Benefits:

✅ Precision Adjustment – Ideal for sensitive circuits, trim controls, and small motor speed regulation ✅ Smooth Operation – Reliable carbon track for 50,000+ cycles ✅ Wide Compatibility – Works with Arduino, robotics, audio gear, and test equipment ✅ Secure Mounting – Threaded bushing for stable panel/PCB installation


🔌 Typical Applications:

  • Sensor calibration (trimpot replacement)

  • Small DC motor speed control (robotics, drones)

  • Audio equipment (gain/trim controls)

  • Test & measurement (voltage divider circuits)

  • DIY electronics (breadboard prototyping)
