Hello all.

I need a power supply where I can regulate current (0-10 Amps), and since I want the regulation to come from a microcontroller, i need to use a digipot (cant think of another option)...

Any of you guys have a schematic or a design I can use?
Can a digipot handle more than 1 amp (up to 10 amps, maybe a little less)? Or is there another option?

Any input will be truly apreciated. Thanks.
