| X9C103 solid-state digipot: This circuit enables you to control an X9C103 by a standard potmeter. This little digipot has 100 wiper positions. The S/N ratio is -120 dB, which is very good! |

| The software.... Here you can download the X9C103 datasheet. Here a part of the assembly which does the trick, well the rest is up to you. (X9C103 can be replaced by X9C303. The X9C303 has a logaritmic wiper scale) |

| X9C103 controlled by mechanical rotary encoder: The diagram shows how a Xicor X9C103 can be connected to a shaft encoder (aka: 2bit rotary gray encoder) controlled by an AT90S2313 AVR microcontroller. Each step is 1/100 of the totall audio level at the input (attenuator) Clockwise turn is volume increase, counter clockwise turn is lowering the volume. |
