If I ever give any direction about this or any other USB stick, ever, at all, assume the USB jack end is defined as "the bottom". Always assume this.
If the wiper is at 10PM, and I already said right leg is 550mV and "noon" is about 700mV, if you scale things linearly between those two points, that's approximately the voltage you get. Basic math, anyone with an eyeball should be capable.
Gosh, now I am super confused. ^^^ wiper at right leg-550 mV
Quote below: when wiper is on the right leg, it is 800mV
Conclusion: I am just going to turn it a bit and see what happens.
The flat bit actually indicates the side of the thing which matters least. Think about it like the feathers on an arrow - the point on the circle exactly opposite the flat is the wiper, which contacts the resistive surface and actually does the work. When the wiper is on the left leg, your voltage is 0.55 and when the wiper is on the right leg you get 0.80 volts. The range between is approximately linear, so the wiper in the middle is around 700mV. The thing will spin all the way around, but if the wiper is between legs (the dead zone where there's no resistive surface to contact) I believe it's still set to 800mV. As soon as the wiper cycles back around to the left leg it reconnects and drops to 550mV.
Interestingly, i cannot make four sticks work at 11Gh on Superbpag, which has seven slots (one gives >20% error and eventually affects another), but three are perfectly fine with almost no error and no potentiometer adjustment.
