5K 3386P Trimpot Trimmer Potentiometer (Pack of 5)
5K 3386P Trimpot is a high accuracy variable resistor and PCB mountable with 3 terminal pins. A general-purpose board mountable preset also called by other names like potentiometers, Trimpots, etc but is just a variable resistor. The voltage between the terminal varies as the trimpot is rotated. The Variable resistors are used for variating voltage as per the need in a circuit.
The outer two pins are connected to Vcc and 0V, and the center pin outputs a variable voltage between 0v and Vcc as the rotary cermet is rotated. The potentiometer is easy to mount on a PCB and can be adjusted using a screwdriver. This potentiometer has a single turn, which can be used to preset a value.
Applications
- Can be used to adjust the voltage drop in the circuit
- Measurement and Test of electronic circuits
- Can be used to control the intensity of led lights in DIY projects
