PTA3043-2015DPA103 is a low-profile slide potentiometer from Bourns' PTA Series designed for professional audio and consumer electronics applications. This single-gang unit features a 30 mm travel distance with a linear taper, 10 kO resistance (±20% tolerance), and a metal DP lever actuator. The potentiometer incorporates a carbon element with metal housing, delivering a maximum operating voltage of 150 V DC in audio mode, a power rating of 0.1 W, and a sliding life of 15,000 cycles with minimal tracking error of 3 dB across the -40 to 0 dB range. Operating over a temperature range of -10°C to +50°C with an insulation resistance of 100 MO at 250 V DC, this component is ideal for audio/TV sets, amplifiers, mixers, synthesizers, and PC monitors where reliable, smooth volume or parameter control is required.
