Product Description


The 250K Ohm Logarithmic Potentiometer is a top-tier adjustable resistor designed to deliver precise control for your audio and electronic applications. Its logarithmic (audio) taper ensures smooth, natural adjustments to volume and tone, making it a perfect choice for electric guitars, amplifiers, and other audio equipment.

Constructed with durable carbon film, this potentiometer provides long-lasting performance and reliability. The 1/4 watt power rating is ideal for various electronic circuits, while the solder terminals ensure secure and easy connections. Its compact design facilitates seamless integration into a variety of devices and DIY projects.

Difference Between Logarithmic and Linear Potentiometers

Logarithmic potentiometers, like this one, are tailored for audio applications due to their logarithmic response, which aligns with human hearing perception. This results in smoother and more intuitive control over audio signals. In contrast, linear potentiometers have a linear response, providing equal resistance changes with equal turns, making them more suitable for applications requiring consistent and proportional adjustments, such as dimmer switches or motor speed controls.
