[Lee] wrote in to share the work he’s done in building a controller for his soldering iron. The idea started when he was working with an ATX power supply. He figured if it works as a makeshift bench ...

Potentiometers, or variable resistors, are a standard component that we take for granted. If it says “10k log” on a volume pot, than we fit and forget. But if like [Ben Holmes] you are modelling ...

This new whitepaper, by Hoffman + Krippner Inc, introduces the advantages and disadvantages of the membrane potentiometer’s special design, and also outlines its possible applications including ...

The classic potentiometer (pot) has been used successfully in electronics system designs for decades: its strengths and weaknesses are very well understood. But what if the pot were able to be ...

In many system applications, it becomes necessary to adjust a switched-mode power supply (SMPS) output voltage within narrow limits in order to remove tolerances and drops in the power path, verify ...

The potentiometer signal conditioner features a wide range of input signals (10 to 100 kohms) with configuration available via DIP-switches, teach-in switches, configuration software or the JUMPFLEX ...
