anyobyd ever made the digital fuzz?

first off, i will refer to this so people know what i am talking about:

http://experimentalistsanonymous.com/diy/Schematics/Fuzz%20and%20Fuzzy%20Noisemakers/Digital%20fuzz.bmp



i ordered a bunch of ADC0808 chips to build it but this schematic only uses 20 of the 28 pins !! so i think it is mislabeled.

anybody know if i can make a workaround to still use the ADC's i bought?

or any other cool projects that use ADC0808'a or other AD/DA chips?

thanks

  I guess it works as shown.
  Based solely on the assumption that Experimentalists Anonymous apparently put that up.

The ADC0808 is indeed a DIP28 chip and wouldn't work using just the 20 pins shown in the schematic.

I think the part is mislabelled and should be one of these: http://www.national.com/ds/DC/ADC0801.pdf

The extra pins on an ADC0808 appear to be for a multiplexer. You'd have to study the datasheets for both chips to see if you could make one work without the multiplexer functionality.
Bringing you yesterday's technology tomorrow.

That is my design, it works as shown, but I think that I used a different ADC.   :icon_redface: In general with the 0808, you just set the multiplexor to the input 0 and then http://www.national.com/ds/DC/ADC0801.pdf shows the pins that equate to the one shown (I don't know why I got the part number wrong, that was a while back).  PM me and I can get it all sussed out for you as it looks like this one does need an external clock.  Again I apologize for the error (I think I corrected it somewhen/somewhere but I admit to usually being a seat-of-the-pants designer of such things).

you want to use an ADC0804 and DAC0808
