Potentiometer Carbon4.7K ohm

The Potentiometer Carbon4.7K ohm is a carbon-track potentiometer with a total resistance of 4.7 kΩ. Turning it moves a wiper along the resistive track, so you can adjust the resistance or tap off any voltage between the two ends. It is a simple way to add manual control to a circuit, such as setting a threshold, trimming a voltage or giving an Arduino an analog input to read.

Potentiometer Carbon4.7K ohm Specifications

• Resistance: 4.7 kΩ (4,700 ohms) between the outer terminals
• Track: carbon
• Terminals: 3 (two track ends and the centre wiper)
• Function: variable resistor or adjustable voltage divider

Potentiometer Carbon4.7K ohm Applications

• Analog input for Arduino and ESP32 projects
• Setting reference voltages and sensor thresholds
• Control inputs for LED dimmers and motor speed controllers
• Calibration and trimming in test circuits
• Electronics education and prototyping

What's in the Box

• 1 × 4.7 kΩ carbon potentiometer

Tip: To use it as a voltage divider, connect the outer pins to 5 V (or 3.3 V) and GND and read the middle pin with an analog input. Do not pass large currents through the wiper; to control motors or lamps, use the potentiometer to set a signal and let a transistor or driver carry the load.
