1KΩ Trimmer Potentiometer – 3-Pin Variable Resistor
A 1K Pot refers to a 1 kilohm (1KΩ) potentiometer, which is a type of variable resistor. Like other potentiometers, a 1K potentiometer allows you to adjust its resistance within a range from 0 ohms to 1,000 ohms (1KΩ). The 1K ohm trimmer potentiometer is a 3-pin adjustable resistor used for fine-tuning resistance in electronic circuits. Ideal for Arduino projects, sensor calibration, analog signal adjustment, and voltage divider configurations.
