What are the differences between the types of Bourns Inc. 3852 series Rotary Potentiometers, Rheostats?

The main difference between Bourns Inc. 3852 series Rotary Potentiometers and Rheostats is the way they are used. A potentiometer is a three-terminal device used to adjust the resistance in a circuit, while a rheostat is a two-terminal device used to adjust the current in a circuit. Potentiometers are typically used to control the volume or brightness of a device, while rheostats are used to control the speed of a motor or the temperature of a device.
