A PD-regulator and automatic depolarization sounds like a project for
v2. :-) For starters, I will need to re-read some control-theory ...
nice ideas though.

Maybe I should explain my intent: The 8 or 32 Hz signals can be used
for calibration or impedance testing or something. The 512Hz signal
provides a stable clock source for the ATtiny15.
