Product Description: The 10K Preset Variable Resistor is a compact, single-turn trimpot designed for semi-permanent circuit adjustments. This RM065 package is a staple in electronic prototyping, allowing engineers to calibrate voltage levels or sensor sensitivity during the initial setup phase. Once the desired resistance is set using a precision screwdriver, it maintains a stable output, making it ideal for "set-and-forget" applications in industrial and hobbyist projects.

Key Features

  • Compact RM065 Footprint: Miniature size specifically designed for space-constrained PCB layouts.

  • Easy Top Adjustment: Features a standard cross-slot head for quick and precise tuning.

  • Broad Breadboard Compatibility: Standard 3-pin configuration with a 5mm/2.5mm pitch fits perfectly into prototyping boards.

  • Linear Taper Performance: Type-B linear response ensures predictable resistance changes across the rotation.

  • Value Pack of 2: Provides multiple units for stereo balancing or redundant circuit calibration.

Technical Details

  • Resistive Element: High-quality carbon film on a sturdy phenolic substrate for consistent contact.

  • Maximum Operating Voltage: Rated for up to 50V DC across the outer terminals.

  • Mechanical Angle: Effective rotational travel of 210° ± 20°.

  • Rotational Torque: Smooth and stable adjustment torque ranging from 20 to 200 gf.cm.

  • Insulation Resistance: Maintains a minimum of 100MΩ at 100V DC for signal integrity.

  • Operating Temperature: Designed to function reliably between -10°C and +70 °C.

  • Dielectric Strength: Can withstand up to 500V AC for 1 minute without breakdown.

  • Load Life: Maintains resistance stability within 5% after 3 hours of continuous operation at rated power.

  • Residual Resistance: Maximum residual resistance is typically less than 1% or 20 ohms at the end-stops.

  • Solder Heat Resistance: Terminals are designed to withstand 260°C for up to 3 seconds during manual soldering.

  • Moisture Resistance: Treated to resist humidity-induced drift (tested at 40°C and 90% RH).

  • Marking: Clearly labelled with the industry-standard "103" code for easy identification.

Prototyping and Engineering Tips from Robogears

  • 9V Battery Application: This 10K preset is the perfect value for creating a variable reference voltage for Op-Amps or comparators powered by a 9V battery.

  • 18650 Battery Monitoring: Use this as a calibration point in an 18650 battery level indicator circuit to set the exact point where a "Low Battery" LED should turn on.

  • IC Synergy: Standard value for setting the contrast on 16x2 LCD modules or adjusting the frequency on an NE5532 audio pre-amp.

  • Filtering: Place a 0.1uF ceramic capacitor between the wiper pin and ground to filter out high-frequency noise in precision analogue circuits.

  • Related Products: We recommend using our Precision Screwdriver Set for adjustment and checking your final resistance with a Digital Multimeter.

Package Includes

  • 2 x 10K Preset Variable Resistor Potentiometers (RM065).
