Trimm-potentiometers
Trimm-potentiometers (abrv. "trimm-pots") are resistors
which allow the value of resistance to be varied and that
way to be adapted to the particular demands. In the
middle they have a small slot into which a small
screwdriver can be put in order to vary the value of
resistance. The maximum value is printed on the housing.
Depending on the mounting situation trimmpots with a lying or a
standing package are used.
Ceramic capacitors
Among other things ceramic capacitors are used for
filtering interference voltages or as frequency determining
parts. Ceramic capacitors are not polarized.
Normally they are marked with a three-digit number which
indicates the value coded. The number 104 corresponds to
the value 100 nF.
Electrolytic capacitors
Electrolytic capacitors are often used to store energy. In
contrast to ceramic capacitors they are polarized. The
value is given on the package.
Electrolytic capacitors are available with different voltage
sustaining capabilities. Using an electrolytic capacitor with
a voltage sustaining capability higher than required is
always possible.
