You need to get a 0.01% pulse wave to get -80dB. Tough to do. Not impossible, but awkward enough to make it stop seeming like such a great solution.<br>> <br>> I've thought about this a bit because of using the PIC's PWM module so much. The best case output from that is either 8-bit or 10-bit, which means that -60dB is about as good as I'd get using it for a VCA, and that implies having a switching frequency which is much too low (31KHz) for many jobs.<br>> <br>> Tom<br>> <br>> <br>> On 2 Jan 2016, at 19:42, rburnett@richieburnett.co.uk wrote:<br>> <br>> > <snip><br>> > Control range of PWM'd CMOS switches acting as VCAs isn't that great though.<br>> > <br>> > -Richie,<br>> > <br>> <br>> _______________________________________________<br>> Synth-diy mailing list<br>> Synth-diy@dropmix.xs4all.nl<br>> http://dropmix.xs4all.nl/mailman/listinfo/synth-diy</div></body></html>
