Pickering's PCI Standard Programmable Resistor Cards include fully programmable resistor and potentiometer cards for applications such as sensor emulation that require fine adjustment with a resolution down to 0.25 Ohm. All of our Programmable Resistor Cards can easily be formed to make Programmable Potentiometers by connecting two channels in series, using the unconnected terminals as the A and B connections and the link between the two channels as the wiper connection. For applications with more demanding accuracy and resolution requirements, consider our Precision Programmable Resistor Cards.

We also offer mating cables and connectors for these cards to ensure speedy and successful system integration. We stand behind our products with a three-year warranty.
