    Bonjour Roger,

    Excerpt of the datasheet ...

    << H - High-Terminal Potentiometer. This is the high terminal of the potentiometer. It is not required that
    this terminal be connected to a potential greater than the L-terminal. Voltage applied to the H-terminal
    cannot exceed the power-supply voltage, VCC, or go below ground.

    L - Low-Terminal Potentiometer. This is the low terminal of the potentiometer. It is not required that this
    terminal be connected to a potential less than the H-terminal. Voltage applied to the L-terminal cannot
    exceed the power-supply voltage, VCC, or go below ground.

    W - Wiper of the Potentiometer. This pin is the wiper of the potentiometer. Its position on the resistor
    array is controlled by the three-terminal control port. Voltage applied to the wiper cannot exceed the
    power-supply voltage, VCC, or go below ground >>

    as the max DS1804 supply voltage is ....


    Bouhou ,snifffff ... goodbye precious chip ! ... if you insist too much !!!

    Try the AD 7376 ...

    Why insist on using 32 Bits when you're not even able to deal with the first 8 ones ??? ehhhhhh ...

    IF there is the word "Problem" in your question ...
    certainly the answer is " RTFM " or " RTFDataSheet " !!!
