# PTV09A-4030U-B502

**BOURNS** · Potentiometers, Variable Resistors · THT

PTV09A-4030U-B502 from BOURNS, in a THT. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

## Pinout

| Pin | Name | Type | Function |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 1 | passive | One end terminal of the carbon resistive element; the taper chart measures the input voltage between terminal 1 and terminal 3. |
| 2 | 2 | output | Wiper (output) terminal; the taper chart plots the output voltage between terminal 1 and terminal 2 against rotational travel. |
| 3 | 3 | passive | Other end terminal of the carbon resistive element; the taper chart measures the input voltage between terminal 1 and terminal 3. |
