Resistance Value: 1 kilohm (kΩ) or 1000 ohms.
Adjustable: The trimpot can be adjusted manually using a small screwdriver or other suitable tool to set the desired resistance within its specified range.
Compact Size: Its small physical size allows it to be easily mounted on circuit boards or within tight spaces.
Three-Terminal Design: Typically, a trimpot has three terminals: two outer terminals (pins) connected across the resistive element and a wiper terminal connected to the adjustable tap.
Precision: Trimpots offer finer control and precision compared to regular potentiometers, making them suitable for calibration and adjustment purposes.
Color: Trimpots may have color codes on their bodies to denote their resistance value, but the color alone is not sufficient to identify the accurate resistance value.
Applications: Trimpots find use in a variety of applications, including calibration of sensors, setting reference voltages, adjusting gain or offset in amplifiers, setting bias currents, and fine-tuning circuits for optimal performance.
