Rotary Potentiometer Module

This module is ideally suited to adding rotation measurement and a method of input to a project. This is a module that features a potentiometer with a 6mm shaft and 270 degrees of rotation. When connected to an analog pin of a microcontroller, it is possible to read position of the potentiometer as a proportion of the VCC used.

  • Drive Voltage: 3-5V

Rotary Potentiometer Module Product Help and Resources

Core Skill: Programming

If a board needs code or communicates somehow, you're going to need to know how to program or interface with it. The programming skill is all about communication and code.

1 Programming

Skill Level: Noob - Programming will be limited to basic drag and drop interfaces like ModKit or Scratch. You won't be writing code, but you will still need to understand some basics of interfacing with hardware. If you?re just using a sensor, it's output is analog.

Core Skill: Electrical Prototyping

If it requires power, you need to know how much, what all the pins do, and how to hook it up. You may need to reference datasheets, schematics, and know the ins and outs of electronics.

1 Electrical Prototyping

Skill Level: Noob - You don't need to reference a datasheet, but you will need to know basic power requirements.
