Description
The 5K Pot Potentiometer is a three-terminal variable resistor that is used to vary or change the resistance. It is used to change different parameters in an electronic circuit, such as voltage, current, and so on.
The 5K Potentiometer is a passive electronic component that has two end terminals with a resistive element and the sliding contact called the wiper acts as the third terminal. Two other terminals present are used to facilitate stabilized mounting on PCB. It is mostly used in applications where a single turn can provide enough control resolution.
