ALPSALPINE · Position Sensors · DIP-4

RDC501051A from ALPSALPINE, in a DIP-4. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 1T passive Resistive element terminal 1 (end terminal). One end of the 10 kΩ resistive track; forms one leg of the voltage divider with terminal 3T.
2 2T passive Wiper terminal. Movable contact along the 10 kΩ resistive element; output tap that provides the position-dependent voltage (100%/333.3° reference taper, index at 50% output).
3 3T passive Resistive element terminal 3 (opposite end terminal). Other end of the 10 kΩ resistive track; forms the second leg of the voltage divider with terminal 1T. Rated 5 V DC across 1T-3T.
