Hi all I need to attenuate the signal from a HWPM to drive a speaker via a audio amp. The signal is being feed through a digital pot first to control the volume. I was thinking of using this circuit r1 hwpm---\/\/\/---- | dig pot / \ / cntr tap ------------AMP input \ / \ / | grnd Does this look right? and any idea what value r1 and dig pot I should be using? The dig pot is a AD4800 and the amp a LM4871 Many thanks Tim -- http://www.piclist.com hint: The PICList is archived three different ways. See http://www.piclist.com/#archives for details.
