This
circuit could be used for replacing your manual volume control in
a stereo amplifier. In this circuit, push-to-on switch S1 controls
the forward (volume increase) operation of both channels while a
similar switch S2 controls reverse (volume decrease) operation of
both channels.
A
readily available IC from Dallas semiconductor, DS1669 is used
here.
FEATURES:
- Replaces
mechanical variable resistors
-
Electronic interface provided for digital as well as manual
control
- Wide
differential input voltage range between 4.5 and 8 volts
- Wiper
position is maintained in the absence of power
- Low-cost
alternative to mechanical controls
-
Applications include volume, tone, contrast,brightness, and
dimmer control
The
circuit is extremely simple and compact requiring very few
external components.
The
power supply can vary from 4.5V to 8V.
