s Output range includes both supply rails
s 2 independently addressable outputs
s 1 LSB Accuracy
s Serial µP interface
s Single supply operation: 2.7V-5.5V
s Setting read-back without effecting outputs
DESCRIPTION
The CAT513 is a dual 8-Bit Memory DAC designed as an
electronic replacement for mechanical potentiometers
and trim pots. Intended for final calibration of products
such as camcorders, fax machines and cellular tele-
phones on automated high volume production lines, it is
also well suited for systems capable of self calibration,
and applications where equipment which is either diffi-
cult to access or in a hazardous environment, requires
periodic adjustment.
The 2 independently programmable DAC's have an
output range which includes both supply rails. Output
settings, stored in non-volatile EEPROM memory, are
not lost when the device is powered down and are
automatically reinstated when power is returned. Each
output can be dithered to test new output values without
effecting the stored settings and stored settings can be
read back without disturbing the DAC’s output.

APPLICATIONS
s Automated product calibration.
s Remote control adjustment of equipment
s Offset, gain and zero adjustments in Self-
Calibrating and Adaptive Control systems.
s Tamper-proof calibrations.
Control of the CAT513 is accomplished with a simple 3
wire serial interface. A Chip Select pin allows several
CAT513's to share a common serial interface and com-
munication back to the host controller is via a single
serial data line thanks to the CAT513’s Tri-Stated Data
Output pin. A Rdy/Bsy output working in concert with an
internal low voltage detector signals proper operation of
EEPROM Erase/Write cycle.
The CAT513 is available in the 0 to 70° C Commercial
and –40° C to + 85° C Industrial operating temperature
ranges and offered in 14-pin plastic DIP and SOIC
packages.
