bad precision pot?

[Martin Czech]

:::What about a digital pot like the Analog Devices AD5220?

:::Would this be an interesting chip to replace some pots?

Well, it was mainly about trimmers, that would be costly...  OTOH these
electronic pots sure have artefacts, noise, control speakthrough, drift
etc. etc. And you would need a up/down switch, it would take some time
to do a 0%-100% move, I don't like this idea.
