Just a quickie to be sure..
When adding a unity gain op-amp buffer after a pot, do I need an extra ground reference R close to the op-amp input, or is it sufficient to rely on the pot resistance to ground to serve the purpose?
As I cannot get suitable log pots here (seriously, it's deepest mexico) I'm loading the pot by putting a 10k R to ground in parallel with wiper to ground. So there'll always be at least 10k to ground before the op-amp input. Does this sound ok?
Any thoughts so I can rest easy, and avoid ordering a few more resistors? Thanks. jeth
