Component Documentation: 500E 3296W Trimpot (Pack of 5)OverviewThe 500E 3296W Trimpot is a compact, high-precision variable resistor (trimpot) designed for electronic circuits. This component is part of a pack of 5, making it ideal for prototyping, development, and small-scale production. The trimpot features a 500Ohm impedance, 0.5W power rating, and a precision increment of 1% per turn.Pinout and SchematicThe 500E 3296W Trimpot has three terminals:CCW (Counter Clock Wise): Terminal 1, connected to the counterclockwise end of the resistive element.
CW (Clock Wise): Terminal 2, connected to the clockwise end of the resistive element.
Wiper (W): Terminal 3, connected to the movable wiper contact.Examples### Example 1: Voltage Divider CircuitIn this example, we'll use the 500E 3296W Trimpot as a voltage divider to regulate the output voltage of a power supply.Circuit Diagram```

```Code Example (Arduino)
```cpp
const int vin = 5; // Input voltage (5V)
const int r1 = 1000; // Resistor R1 (1k)
const int r2 = 1000; // Resistor R2 (1k)
int trimpotPin = A0; // Trimpot wiper pin connected to analog input A0void setup() {
pinMode(trimpotPin, INPUT);
}void loop() {
int sensorValue = analogRead(trimpotPin);
float voltageOut = (sensorValue / 1023.0) vin;
Serial.print("Output Voltage: ");
Serial.println(voltageOut);
delay(100);
}
```Adjust the trimpot to set the desired output voltage, and the Arduino will read the voltage value through the analog input.### Example 2: Audio Volume ControlIn this example, we'll use the 500E 3296W Trimpot as a volume control for an audio circuit.Circuit Diagram```

```Code Example (Raspberry Pi)This example uses the Raspberry Pi's GPIO library to control the audio volume.```python
import RPi.GPIO as GPIO# Set up GPIO mode
GPIO.setmode(GPIO.BCM)# Trimpot wiper pin connected to GPIO 17
trimpot_pin = 17
GPIO.setup(trimpot_pin, GPIO.IN)while True:
# Read the trimpot value
trimpot_value = GPIO.input(trimpot_pin)# Calculate the volume based on the trimpot value
volume = trimpot_value 10 # Scale the value to 0-100# Set the audio volume using the `amixer` command
os.system(f'amixer -D pulse sset Master {volume}%')
time.sleep(0.1)
```Adjust the trimpot to set the desired audio volume, and the Raspberry Pi will read the value and adjust the audio output accordingly.Please note that these examples are for illustration purposes only and may require additional components or adjustments for your specific application.
