C1=0.1uf Ceramic Disc Capacitor U1=DS1669 Digital Pot IC (See Notes) S1, S2=Momentary Push Button Switch MISC=Board, Wire, Socket For U1 Notes: 1. U1 is available from Dallas Semiconductor. 2. S1 turns the volume up, S2 turns it down. 3. The input signal should not fall below -0.2 volts. 4. Using a dual polariity power supply (+-5V works fine) will cure most clipping problems. You will have to check the data sheet for the correct pins to connect your voltages.
