> If anyone has any other suggests please feel free to weigh in The 4066 element can be used as a digitally-controlled variable resistor, or used to switch another resistor, if you feel the need for volume control such as balancing Drive the Control pin with PWM that has a variable duty cycle, and the resulting effective resistance is proportional to that R x (On time / Off time) A not-unknown technique in semi-digital applications, such as early synthesisers, to vary multi-pole filters etc with a single control voltage that alters a common PWM driver section PWM frequency an be several hundred kHz to avoid aliasing with the audio signals Joe --=20 http://www.piclist.com/techref/piclist PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist .
