Abstract
An electrical assembly including a conductor arrangement and a multi-resolution potentiometer electrically connected to the conductor arrangement. The multi-resolution potentiometer includes a first resistive element having a first adjustment mechanism and a first wiper, and a second resistive element having a second adjustment mechanism and a second wiper. The first adjustment mechanism is coupled in a hysteresis arrangement to the second adjustment mechanism. A resistor network provides an electrical output for the potentiometer and electrically couples the first wiper with the second wiper.
