How Potentiometers Work - With Real-Life Examples

Overview

Potentiometers are relatively simple devices that use proven technology to provide the necessary function of voltage control or measurement in many types of electronic or electrical devices or systems. In partnership with CircuitBread, this video provides a conceptual review of potentiometers and how they work using real-life examples, including a volume control circuit and a practical motor control design. Both of these application examples show just how simple it can be to utilize a potentiometer in your next project.
