Done, no change. > 2) The datasheet for TDA7056 shows a 5K resister between the input pin > and ground. It shows a 5k input impedance in the test circuit. The other circuit doesn't have the resistor.

Normally, the pot sends a voltage from 0.4v to 1.0v to the volume control pin, which is about it's useful range (given 4w speakers). The MCU pin normally monitors this via an adc, so it can give some feedback on the display. However, it can also force this pin low to mute the amps (they go into standby when the input is under 0.3v). The opamp is just a voltage follower because the pot is high impedance and the amps aren't. > You might isolate its output pin and ground the signal ground to > ground. If it's below 0.3v it doesn't matter, the amps are off. _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list [email protected] http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
