Tayda A-6333 - 100K Linear Taper 14mm Potentiometer, Spline Shaft

Details

  • Location: Cabinet-3, Bin 7
  • Category: Potentiometers — Rotary Potentiometers
  • Brand: Tayda Electronics
  • Part Number: A-6333
  • Package: Through-hole, PCB mount
  • Quantity: 10
  • Status: Available
  • Price Range: $1.30
  • Product URL: Tayda A-6333

Description

100K ohm linear (type B) taper rotary potentiometer with a 14mm body and T18 spline shaft. The transparent spline shaft makes it easy to confirm shaft engagement when fitting knobs. PCB-mount version with standard 3-pin through-hole footprint.

Widely used in Eurorack synthesizer modules, effects pedals, and general audio circuits. The 100K value is a common choice for CV inputs, attenuators, and tone controls. The spline shaft accepts standard split-shaft knobs (6mm, 18-tooth).

Specifications

3CCWCounter-clockwise end of track

Applications

  • Eurorack module CV attenuators and controls
  • Audio volume and tone controls
  • Effects pedal parameter controls
  • Synthesizer filter cutoff and resonance
  • General analog signal attenuation

Circuit Examples

Basic Voltage Divider / Attenuator

VIN ── Pin 1 (CW)
        Wiper (Pin 2) ── VOUT (0 to VIN)
GND ── Pin 3 (CCW)

Eurorack CV Attenuator

CV IN ── Pin 1
          Pin 2 (Wiper) ── CV OUT (attenuated)
GND   ── Pin 3

Technical Notes

  • Spline shaft requires a split-shaft (T18) knob — D-shaft knobs will not fit
  • 14mm body is standard for Eurorack panel pots; pairs with 7mm panel hole
  • Linear taper is ideal for CV control; use audio taper (A) for volume controls
  • Add a 100Ω series resistor on the wiper when driving op-amp inputs to avoid oscillation

Notes

Pairs well with the T18 split-shaft knobs also in Cabinet 7 Bin 16. For D-shaft knobs, look for Tayda’s round-shaft or D-shaft pot variants instead.
