Hi, I was wondering if it's possible to control a DC motor with a digital pot? What kind of circuit would I need? Can I just hook up the pot to the motor or do I need a voltage regulator. Thanks.
 
Hi MrWho,

No you can't just hook it up to the motor. What you need depends on the voltage the current the motor and what you are going to use it for. You need at least a PWM circuit for the motor.
