Digital Potentiometer - 10K

The Sparkfun Digital Potentiometer - 10K is a versatile tool that allows for the control of a voltage splitter using digital signals. This 10K potentiometer is not only efficient but also eliminates the need for your microcontroller to interface with traditional potentiometers. It's as simple as wiring it up like a regular potentiometer and using serial signals to adjust the settings.

One of the standout features of this digital potentiometer is its ability to adjust its 'sweep' profile. Unlike mechanical potentiometers that have a pre-determined sweep profile, this digital version allows you to customise the sweep according to your needs. Whether you need it to 'sweep' in a linear or logarithmic fashion, or any other profile, it's all down to how you write your code.

This digital potentiometer also pairs well with rotary encoders, making it possible to consolidate large banks of potentiometers into one streamlined 'smart' rotary control. This means you can achieve more with less, making it a smart addition to any project.
