3296 Multiturn 103 (10K) 1/2W 25 Turn Trimpot Potentiometer
The 3296 Multiturn 103 10K Trimpot Potentiometer is a precision adjustable variable resistor designed for applications where accurate and stable resistance adjustment is required. This 3296 trimpot features 25 turns, allowing much finer adjustment than a standard single-turn potentiometer.
With a 10KΩ resistance value, 1/2W power rating, 3-pin configuration, and multiturn adjustment mechanism, this trimmer potentiometer is suitable for electronics projects, sensor calibration, voltage adjustment, amplifier circuits, power supplies, measurement equipment, Arduino projects, robotics, and PCB-based electronic circuits.
The 3296 style trimpot is particularly useful when you need precise voltage, current, gain, offset, or sensor calibration. Its 25-turn mechanism provides better control over small resistance changes, making it a practical choice for students, engineers, technicians, makers, and electronics repair professionals in Bangladesh.

What Does 103 Mean on a 3296 Trimpot?
The 103 marking represents 10KΩ.
The first two digits are 10, while the third digit indicates the number of zeros:
10 + 3 zeros = 10,000Ω = 10KΩ
So:
3296 103 = 10KΩ trimpot
Why Choose a 25-Turn Trimpot?
A normal single-turn potentiometer can change resistance relatively quickly. A 25-turn multiturn trimpot spreads the adjustment across many turns.
This provides:
- More precise resistance adjustment
- Easier circuit calibration
- Better control of sensor output
- Fine voltage adjustment
- Accurate amplifier offset adjustment
- Improved tuning of electronic circuits
For applications where a small adjustment can significantly affect circuit performance, a multiturn trimpot is often more convenient than a standard potentiometer.
