Electronic-potentiometer system has pushbutton interface -
26-Sep-02 Issue of EDN As systems grow smaller, it becomes
increasingly attractive to replace mechanical potentiometers with electronic
potentiometers, which are smaller and less expensive silicon equivalents. A
common interface for such devices comprises a Chip-Select, Increment and,
Up/ line. CS activates the device and, on a rising edge of steps the wiper
in a direction that the U/ pin indicates.... [Design Idea by Gene Warzecha

LED dimmer uses only two lines - 21-Mar-02 Issue of EDN The circuit in
Figure 1provides 32 steps of brightness control-from 0 to 100%-for a backlight or
instrument panel, using just two general-purpose-microprocessor signals. In addition,
the circuit requires little board space, because it uses only three SOT-23s and one
µMax package.... [Design Idea by Jerry Wasinger, WallyWare Inc, Norcross, GA]
