EPOT Applications: Gain Adjustment in Op-Amp Circuits
Variable gain amplifiers often use a mechanical potentiometer to set the gain. An example is a volume control
dial. However, when the analog signal path is digitally controlled, a digital potentiometer might be used to
control gain. This article discusses the use of the digital potentiometer to form digitally controlled gain or filter
blocks.
General
Throughout this discussion of digital potentiometers, the term EPOT is used rather than digital pot, EEPOT or
EPOT. The term EPOT describes the Maxim series of vola……
