GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD5245 provides a compact 2.9 mm × 3 mm packaged
solution for 256-position adjustment applications. These
devices perform the same electronic adjustment function as
mechanical potentiometers or variable resistors, with enhanced
resolution, solid-state reliability, and superior low temperature
coefficient performance.
The wiper settings are controllable through an I²C-compatible
digital interface, which can also be used to read back the wiper
register content. AD0 can be used to place up to two devices on
the same bus. Command bits are available to reset the wiper
position to midscale or to shut down the device into a state of
zero power consumption.

Operating from a 2.7 V to 5.5 V power supply and consuming
less than 8 µA allows usage in portable battery-operated
applications.
Note that the terms digital potentiometer, VR, and RDAC are
used interchangeably.
