This linear slide potentiometer comes with an added kick - its not just a plain old slide pot! Underneath is mounted a slim geared DC motor that can gently move the wiper up and down, without human interaction.
One end terminal of the 10K linear potentiometer resistor divider.
Analogue wiper output of the 10K linear slide potentiometer.
Other end terminal of the 10K linear potentiometer resistor divider.
One terminal of the electrically separate DC motor; drive through a full H-bridge for direction control.
Other terminal of the electrically separate DC motor; reverse polarity through an H-bridge for opposite direction.
Voltage depends on the externally applied divider rails. · 5V~10V DC motor per Adafruit product page.
Verify supply voltage and logic levels before powering up.
Module pins: Motor terminal 1, Motor terminal 2, Pot wiper, Touch pad. Schematik maps them to your board in the app.
