[Stephen Woodward] is familiar with digital potentiometers but is also familiar with their limitations. That spurred him to create the PWMPot which performs a similar function, but with better ...

Digital potentiometers are digitally controlled variable resistors that can be used in place of their functionally equivalent mechanical counterparts. While digital potentiometers offer comparable ...

This application note compares digital to analog converters (DACs) to digital potentiometers. Traditionally digital potentiometers were meant to replace simple mechanical pots. With recent increases ...

Small, resilient and easy to use, digital potentiometers are becoming widely accepted as replacements for mechanical potentiometers, especially in volume-control applications. In this type of audio ...

Digital potentiometers are resistive elements that are controlled by digital codes. They differ from their analog counterparts in that they are silicon-based rather than mechanical devices. Instead of ...

Making sound with digital logic usually calls for a Digital to Analog converter. Building one can be very simple, and the sound quality out of an R-2R Ladder is actually pretty good. In the last ...
