Using an external potentiometer, factory floor personnel can now precisely calibrate the set points of a motor drive, and program them in whatever units they prefer. Known as the Accu-Dial, the new ...

A resistive feedback network is often used to set the output voltage of a power supply, since fixed resistors are simple to use and low cost. However, because a fixed network is not adjustable, the ...

The newer a piece of farm equipment, the more likely some aspect of it needs to be calibrated, and sometimes re-calibrated, for it to work correctly. In case. you’ve ever wondered, here’s what ...

Maxim Integrated Products has introduced what the company claims are the industry's lowest voltage digital potentiometers. The family of dual, 256-tap, volatile digital potentiometers operate from a ...

What are digital potentiometers, and how are they used? Digital potentiometers are integrated circuits that implement a resistive ladder and a digital means of addressing a particular tap on the ...
