Abstract:
Apparatuses, systems, and methods of manufacturing are described that provide a rotary switch. An example rotary switch includes a substrate and a plurality of electrical contacts supported by the substrate. The rotary switch includes a resistor network of a plurality of resistors in electrical communication with the plurality of electrical contacts and a commutator that moves relative to the substrate along the plurality of electrical contacts. The commutator electrically connects a pair of adjacent electrical contacts so as to modify an output voltage of the rotary switch corresponding to a position of the rotary switch. Each resistor of the resistor network is positioned so as to electrically connect a respective pair of adjacent electrical contacts. Each resistor in the resistor network comprises a resistance value that is different from resistance values of other resistors in the resistor network.
