DESCRIPTION
The WM8816 is a highly linear stereo volume control for audio systems. The design is based on resistor chains with external op-amps, which provides flexibility for the supply voltage, signal swing, noise floor and cost optimisation. The gain of each channel can be independently programmed from -111.5dB to +15.5dB through a digital serial control interface.
