Digital Variable Resistor / Potensiometer DS1669

The DS1669 is an electronic digital rheostat manufactured by Dallas Semiconductor. This component has a function similar to digital variable resistor/potensiometer which can be operated by push the buttons. You can adjust the audio volume, LCD contrast, frequency, etc. by using two buttons instead of a common potentiometer/trimpot. This circuit explains how we do it… Read More »




Schematic Diagram

In the electrical sector, a schematic diagram is usually used to describe the design or model of equipment. Schematic diagrams are usually utilized for the maintenance and repair of electronic and electromechanical devices / units. Original schematics were made by hand, using standardized templates or pre-printed adhesive symbols, but nowadays Electrical CAD computer software is often used.

In electronic design automation, until the 1980s schematics were virtually the only formal representation for circuits. More lately, using the progress of computer system technology, other representations were introduced and specialized computer languages were developed, because with the explosive development of the complexity of electronic circuits, classic schematics are getting less practical. As an example, hardware description languages are indispensable for contemporary digital circuit design.
