I'm using two potentiometer in amplifier design for controlling gain and offset.
the potentiometer that used in offset control works perfect. but that one used in amplifier resistor have a big problem. When it joined to circuit, output signal become too noisy.
My circuit design in this section as follows:
I changed the potentiometer in feedback path, but result is same. Also I cut the offset path and test gain section separate, but output don't changed.
can I help me or explain this problem?
thank you,

The digital pot can have significant capacitance from its analogue pins to both ground and the internal digital clocking input. This means two things: -
With your non-effective offset control, you will get very little noise injected because the digipot is in series with a resistor, R28.
