In summary, TT Electronics, the PSM050S-10B10KB – part of the PSM series of long-life miniature PCB mount slide potentiometers is for audio, consumer, medical, and industrial applications. Available in six resistance variants ranging from 500 Ω to 50 kΩ, and offering linear response with better than 5% linearity tolerance, the 10 mW miniature potentiometer has a voltage rating of 100 VAC and operating temperature range of -10°C to +70°C. The carbon resistive element is robust and precise, ensuring resistance tolerance within ±20%. The PSM series potentiometers are engineered to have a smooth sliding action for a rewarding user experience and outstanding reliability, with rated lifetime of 5000 cycles. Designers can choose from 4 mm, 5 mm, or 10 mm of mechanical travel, and the slim package width of just 5 mm minimizes PCB real estate and simplifies board layout. The PSM series potentiometers are available in both surface-mount design and wave-solder compatible through-hole variants. There is also a choice of 1.2 mm or 2.2 mm slide-lever length to suit mechanical constraints such as front-panel thickness.
