CAT5115
32‐tap Digital
Potentiometer (POT)
Description
The CAT5115 is a single digital POT designed as an electronic
replacement for mechanical potentiometers and trim pots. Ideal for
automated adjustments on high volume production lines, they are also
well suited for applications where equipment requiring periodic
adjustment is either difficult to access or located in a hazardous or
remote environment.
The CAT5115 contains a 32-tap series resistor array connected
between two terminals R_H and R_L. An up/down counter and decoder
that are controlled by three input pins, determines which tap is
connected to the wiper, R_W. The wiper is always set to the mid point,
tap 15 at power up. The tap position is not stored in memory.
Wiper-control of the CAT5115 is accomplished with three input
control pins, CS, U/D, and INC. The INC input increments the wiper
in the direction which is determined by the logic state of the U/D input.
The CS input is used to select the device.
The digital POT can be used as a three-terminal resistive divider or
as a two-terminal variable resistor. Digital POTs bring variability and
programmability to a wide variety of applications including control,
parameter adjustments, and signal processing.
For a pin-compatible device that recalls a stored tap position on
power-up refer to the CAT5114 data sheet.
