Adafruit Soft Potentiometer Kit from Plug&Wear

The Linear SoftPot Ribbon Sensor - 100mm offers an innovative approach to integrating a slide potentiometer into wearables. This versatile component enhances applications such as LED brightness adjustment and sensor inputs for microcontroller boards like Flora or Gemma.

With a variable resistance ranging from approximately 100 ohms to 8K ohms, the ribbon sensor becomes a crucial tool for precise control. When used as a voltage-output potentiometer, it requires simple connections between ends to ground and a power source, allowing voltage measurement via the sliding ring.

For adjustable resistor applications, connect one end of the ribbon to the ring while letting the other end remain free. The kit includes 50cm of conductive ribbon and a robust stainless steel ring, perfectly designed for seamless integration into a variety of projects.
