X9259_14 Datasheet, PDF (1/21 Pages) Intersil Corporation – Single Supply/Low Power/256-Tap/2-Wire Bus Quad Digitally-Controlled Potentiometers

DATASHEET
Single Supply/Low Power/256-Tap/2-Wire Bus Quad
Digitally-Controlled (XDCP™) Potentiometers
X9259
The X9259 integrates four digitally controlled potentiometers
(XDCP) on a monolithic CMOS integrated circuit.
The digitally controlled potentiometers are implemented with
a combination of resistor elements and CMOS switches. The
position of the wipers are controlled by the user through the
2-wire bus interface. Each potentiometer has associated with
it a volatile Wiper Counter Register (WCR) and four nonvolatile
Data Registers that can be directly written to and read by the
user. The content of the WCR controls the position of the wiper.
At power-up, the device recalls the content of the default Data
Registers of each DCP (DR00, DR10, DR20, and DR30) to the
corresponding WCR.
The XDCP can be used as a three-terminal potentiometer or as
a two-terminal variable resistor in a wide variety of
applications including control, parameter adjustments, and
signal processing.
