Well, if you can afford the board space for two resistors, just figure out where you want the voltage set at (determine with a pot hooked up) and make a voltage divider using two resistors. It's been a while since I looked at the schematic, but that should work. -Todd ____________________________________ Todd Peterson (tpeterson@netins.net) E-LAB Digital Engineering, Inc.
