Rotary Potentiometer

You'll find these rotary potentiometers in our Maker Essentials kit, but they're so useful we decided to offer them on their own!

Pair them with something like our Explorer HAT Pro or Explorer pHAT to read precise values from them.

  • Total resistance: 1kΩ (NH00N2CB1K), 10kΩ (NH00N2CB10K) or 100kΩ (NH00N2CB100K)
  • Total resistance tolerance: ±20%
  • Max. operating voltage: AC 50V / DC 20V
  • Rated power: 0.05W
  • Rotational noise: less than 100mV
  • Insulation resistance: more than 100MΩ at DC 250V
  • Total rotational angle: 280° ±10°
  • Linear resistance taper (1B)

Works well to change resistance and I got some sensible readings when using it with my raspberry pi.

Just what I needed. Planning to stock up, you never know when the next project needs one

Useful as many Diy suppliers pots are at right angles to the board. These are perpendicular and a great size but be aware for use with proto or breadboards you'll need to snip or bend the panel mount tabs. Also these will not accommodate the knob caps sold here.
