Hello Everyone,
I'm working on a project where I need a variable resistor that can physically change in size.
Think of it as the slider on a media player and at any point it is possible to 'click on' a new slider next to the old one.
I'd prefer it if the new slider wouldn't change the maximum possible change in resistance. It would be better if when the 'slider button' would transist from one slider to the other the resistance would change to the standard maximum resistance of that slider and would decrease from that point onward.
I don't need a smooth transition in resistance because I am reading the value with a microcontroller and I can solve this with programming. I do however need a smooth transition of the physical slider button.
Does something like this exist? or is it possible to make one myself by using existing sliders?
Any help is appreciated
