What is the potentiometer, what IS IT FOR and how to USE it, complete tutorial. In this tutorial we are going to see several electronic components called linear potentiometers of different values, we are going to analyze first we are going to see that the potentiometer is a variable resistor which means that we can vary its resistance as we move the knob of the potentiometer, we are going to see how the potentiometer is connected. electronic component since it has 3 legs or terminals and then we are going to see the types of potentiometers that there are, linear, logarithmic, digital, sinusoidal, multiturn, linear with switch, we are also going to do a dynamic test to physically test the component and we are going to make it work in two ways, as a variable resistor with an LED diode and a power supply, and as a voltage divider and we will see the results in the digital multimeter or tester, we will also do electrical resistance tests with the digital multimeter on a resistance scale, If you like the video, don't forget to leave your like, thank you.
