Circuit 2
In this circuit you’ll work with a potentiometer.
A potentiometer is also known as a variable resistor.
When it’s connected with 5 volts across its two outer
pins, the middle pin outputs a voltage between 0 and
5, depending on the position of the knob on the
potentiometer. A potentiometer is a perfect
demonstration of a variable voltage divider circuit.
The voltage is divided proportionate to the resistance
between the middle pin and the ground pin. In this
circuit, you’ll learn how to use a potentiometer to
control the brightness of an LED.
