A rotary potentiometer isn't always the right fit for a project's physical control layout - a linear slide control, the same style used on audio mixer faders, often feels more natural for applications like volume adjustment, brightness dimming, or any control where a straight-line motion matches the mental model of the value being adjusted better than a rotational knob. This module mounts a 10K slide potentiometer onto a breakout board, exposing the adjustable resistance as two separate analog output signals.
Each output provides an analog voltage scaling between 0V and the supply voltage (VCC) as the slider moves along its travel, read directly through a microcontroller's analog input pin without needing any digital communication protocol - about as simple an interface as a position-sensing control can offer. Supply voltage spans 3.3V to 5V, covering both common logic families directly.
Physical size is 90 x 21 x 30mm, giving a reasonably long slide travel compared to a compact rotary potentiometer of similar resistance value, which can make fine adjustment easier for applications where precision matters along the control's range. The resistance value of 10K sits in a commonly-used range for analog input dividers and control applications, matching what most existing potentiometer-based project tutorials and example code already expect.
Makers building a custom audio mixer-style volume control, a brightness or speed dimmer with a linear-feel control, a calibration or offset adjustment dial, or any project wanting a slide-style analog input rather than a rotary knob will find this potentiometer module a straightforward, ready-to-wire component for that specific interaction style.
