Adafruit NeoPot - Clear Shaft Potentiometer with RGB NeoPixel

The RK09K1130D62 clear shaft linear potentiometer offers a sleek design paired with functionality. Its clear shaft allows for enhanced LED illumination, creating vibrant visual displays and full RGB color selection when used with a NeoPixel.

This 10K potentiometer, similar to the Alps RK09 series, stands out with its unique features. It extends just 1mm above the PCB and has a NeoPixel soldered beneath it for glowing illumination. All three pins are accessible: P-, Pot (wiper), and P+, handling up to 20V. Additionally, it includes NeoPixel power and data: Vcc, N-In, Gnd, with N-out on the opposite side.

Operating on 3V or 5V power, the device ensures compatibility with matching logic levels. Soldering the two jumpers underneath ties P- to Ground and P+ to Vcc, optimizing wiring efficiency. The PCB features dual header strips for stability and four mounting holes for secure attachment to a front plate. Comes with extra header for breadboard integration, requiring microcontroller or microcomputer control for NeoPixel operation.
