SKU: AF-4271 | Brand: Adafruit

This 35 mm slide potentiometer offers a compact, linear input control for your projects. Use it as a voltage divider where the slider position gives you a visual indication of the output level — perfect for mixing boa...

SKU: SF-COM-14624 | Brand: SparkFun

A panel-mount rotary potentiometer with a 100 kΩ logarithmic taper. Turn the knob and the resistance changes smoothly — ideal for volume controls and other audio applications where a logarithmic response matches human...

SKU: SF-SEN-08680 | Brand: SparkFun

These are very thin variable potentiometers. By pressing down on various parts of the strip, the resistance linearly changes from 100Ohms to 10,000Ohms allowing the user to very accurately calculate the relative posit...

SKU: AF-245 | Brand: Adafruit

The 2-Axis Joystick provides analogue input for your projects using two independent 10K potentiometers — one per axis. It reports position as either voltage or resistance, making it compatible with a wide range of mic...

SKU: SF-COM-28384 | Brand: SparkFun

A compact thumbwheel potentiometer for adding analog control to your projects. The ergonomic wheel design allows for easy adjustment with one finger, making it perfect for volume controls, parameter adjustment, and us...

SKU: EF-EF05018 | Brand: ElecFreaks

An analogue trimpot (trimmer potentiometer) sensor module from the ELECFREAKS PlanetX series, designed for use with micro:bit via RJ11 connection. The potentiometer provides stepless rotation over a 0°–300° range, out...

SKU: AF-5466 | Brand: Adafruit

A 10KΩ linear slide potentiometer with a built-in geared DC motor underneath the slider. The motor can move the wiper up and down programmatically, while the slider also moves freely by hand when the motor is unpowere...

SKU: SF-COM-16273 | Brand: SparkFun

A 16 mm deluxe thumb joystick similar to the analogue sticks found in PlayStation controllers. Two 10K potentiometers provide analogue position data for the full range of motion on both axes, and a built-in select but...
