LOAD CONTROL DEVICE HAVING AN ILLUMINATED ROTARY KNOB
A wall-mountable load control device may include an illuminated rotary knob for providing a nightlight feature. The load control device may be configured to control an intensity of a lighting load. The load control device may include a yoke adapted to be mounted to an electrical wall box, an enclosure attached to the yoke, a faceplate attached to the yoke and having an opening, a mounting member attached to the yoke, and/or a potentiometer located within the enclosure and having a shaft extending through an opening in the yoke and the opening of the faceplate. The load control device may include a collar attached to the boss of the mounting member and surrounding the shaft of the potentiometer. The mounting member may be configured to conduct light from at least one light source housed within the enclosure to illuminate the faceplate.
RESISTOR TRIMMING DEVICE AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE
A resistor trimming device comprising a resistor trimming unit is provided, which divides a single one adjustable resistor string into a plurality of adjustable resistor string groups, so that a resistance of the parallel resistor faced by a switch can be effectively reduced, and a design of the on-resistance and off-resistance of the switch can comply with a general design rule. In addition, the resistor trimming device provided further comprises a decoder. When trimming the overall resistance of an electronic device, a user can directly input a binary code or an original thermometer code used in the adjustable resistor string being not grouped, without knowing an encoding manner, and then, the decoder generates a trimming thermometer code and a group code to control a main switch and switches in the multiple adjustable resistor string groups being the grouped from the adjustable resistor string.
