Originally posted by green View PostThe EF trim pot I use is 1% of the input resistor value. Easy to see adjustment when moving a ceramic magnet away from coil. Don't remember if EF was a problem if pot was adjusted to either end(1% difference in input resistors).

Originally posted by Ferric Toes View PostI always use 1% resistors too, but as the Rds(on) of the jfets, or the gates in a 4066, are not balanced to 1%, I use a trimpot to compensate for this.

I use MAX4066A because it can be driven directly from a 5 V micro. This one has 2Ω max and 0.5Ω typical match between channels.

Never used jfets personally. For 4066 chips I think it depends on the model. For example TI's CD4066B datasheet says "Switch On-State Resistance Matched to Within 5Ω Over 15-V Signal-Input Range", which I understand is matching between channels. That's not 1% compared to the switch on-resistance itself but with 1k resistor in series its pretty decent. Some other datasheets don't mention matching at all. Also I wouldn't put that much faith into the unmarked 4066 chips I got from China.

Originally posted by Ferric Toes View PostYes, it is matching between channels that is important rather than absolute value and interesting that the MAX4066A is 2Ω max. per channel. Some of the integrators I use in detectors with high pulse rates have 10K input resistors, so 2Ω or less is insignificant.

Originally posted by Carl-NC View PostThat's what happened in the TDI-SL... the input R is 10k so I eliminated the trim pots. Other designs I've done go down to 1k but I tend to use better switches than the 4066, so I still never use a trim pot.
