Potentiometer Carbon 1K ohm (5pcs)

The Potentiometer Carbon 1K ohm is a rotary potentiometer with a carbon resistance track and a total resistance of 1 kΩ, sold in a pack of 5. Turning the shaft moves the wiper along the track, giving a smoothly adjustable resistance or voltage. It is a common choice for front-panel controls, analog inputs on Arduino and ESP32, and adjustable voltage dividers.

Potentiometer Carbon 1K ohm Specifications

• Resistance: 1 kΩ across the full track
• Track: carbon
• Type: rotary potentiometer, 3 terminals
• Wiring: two track ends plus the centre wiper
• Pack size: 5 pieces

Potentiometer Carbon 1K ohm Applications

• Analog input controls for Arduino and ESP32, such as brightness, speed or menu values
• Adjustable voltage dividers and reference voltages
• Setting LED brightness and timer periods
• Front-panel controls in DIY devices
• Electronics education and prototyping

What's in the Box

• 5 × 1 kΩ carbon potentiometers

Tip: Connect the outer pins to 5 V and GND and the middle pin to an analog input. At 5 V a 1 kΩ potentiometer draws 5 mA all the time, so for battery-powered projects a 10 kΩ potentiometer uses less current.
