DATASHEET
Low Noise/Low Power/2-Wire Bus Quad Digitally
Controlled Potentiometers (XDCP™)
X9409
The X9409 integrates 4 digitally controlled potentiometers
(XDCP) on a monolithic CMOS integrated microcircuit.
The digitally controlled potentiometer is implemented using
63 resistive elements in a series array. Between each element
are tap points connected to the wiper terminal through
switches. The position of the wiper on the array is controlled by
the user through the 2-wire bus interface. Each potentiometer
has associated with it a volatile Wiper Counter Register (WCR)
and 4 nonvolatile Data Registers (DR0:DR3) that can be
directly written to and read by the user. The contents of the
WCR controls the position of the wiper on the resistor array
through the switches. Power-up recalls the contents of DR0 to
the 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.
