Global Potentiometers, Trimmers & Rheostats Competitive Landscape Professional Research Report 2025

Research Summary

Potentiometers, trimmers, and rheostats are all types of variable resistors used in electronic circuits to control the flow of electric current. Potentiometers, often called pots, are adjustable resistors with three terminals, allowing the user to manually change the resistance and voltage output. They are commonly used in applications like volume controls in audio devices. Trimmers, on the other hand, are compact variable resistors designed for more precise adjustments, often using a small screwdriver or tool. They are frequently found on circuit boards for calibration purposes. Rheostats are variable resistors specifically designed to control current by varying the resistance in a circuit. While these terms are sometimes used interchangeably, they have specific applications and characteristics that cater to different needs in electronic design, providing flexibility and control over electrical parameters in a variety of devices and systems.
