The potentiometer, also known as a "pot," is a simple yet versatile component used in electronic circuits to control the flow of electric current. It consists of a resistive element and a sliding contact (wiper) that can be manually adjusted to vary the output voltage. Wirewound potentiometers are often used in applications where precision and high power handling capabilities are required, such as audio equipment, industrial control systems, and power supplies. The potentiometer is typically wired with three connections: the input voltage, ground, and the variable output. It can be used as a voltage divider to regulate the flow of current or as a variable resistor to adjust the resistance in a circuit. Its straightforward wiring and simple operation make it an essential component in a wide range of electronic devices.
