Slide
A slide potentiometer is a type of variable resistor that consists of a sliding contact, called the wiper, that moves along a resistive strip to vary the resistance between two end terminals. The position of the wiper determines its resistance, which can be used to control the flow of electrical current in a circuit.Β

Slide Potentiometer
Sliding potentiometers (pots) are designed to change the value of contact resistance through linear motion, using resistive elements and sliding contacts to form an adjustable voltage divider. If you use only two terminals, one end of the element and the adjustable contact, it works as a variable resistor or rheostat.
FAQ:
1. What is sliding potentiometer?
- Sliding potentiometers (pots) are designed to change the value of contact resistance through linear motion, using resistive elements and sliding contacts to form an adjustable voltage divider.
2. What is DC slide wire potentiometer?
- A DC Slide Wire potentiometer works on the principle of comparing an unknown voltage to a known voltage for measurement. Simply measure the magnitude of the unknown voltage. DC potentiometers are used to measure current, resistance, etc., and are very useful for calibrating voltmeters, ammeters, etc.
3. What is the working principle of a potentiometer?
- A sliding potentiometer, or slide wire potentiometer working, is designed to change the value of contact resistance through linear movement, so there is a linear relationship between the position of the sliding contact and the output resistance.
