 		 #160227 - Why Not Put the Pot
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Why not look into simply putting the pot into some kind of PWM or OSC circuit where the pot controls the period or frequency. Then connect the resulting signal to a pin or timer input and set about measuring the period or frequency with the MCU.

Reading a pot using a digital input???            01/01/70 00:00      
   And a cap            01/01/70 00:00      
      Forgot to say the capacitor!            01/01/70 00:00

                     Begin with using two free P0 port lines, ...            01/01/70 00:00      
                        Can I measure the charge and discharge time of the cap?            01/01/70 00:00      
                           yes, no, maybe            01/01/70 00:00      
                              Two caps or comparator            01/01/70 00:00      
                                 Crap, also because of several other factors...            01/01/70 00:00      
         That is a PIC not an 8052            01/01/70 00:00      
            you need a pullup for this            01/01/70 00:00

   Link...            01/01/70 00:00      
   inconsistent readings            01/01/70 00:00      
      Filtering needed            01/01/70 00:00      
         even better            01/01/70 00:00
