Notes: (1) Absolute Linearity is utilized to determine actual wiper voltage versus expected voltage as determined by wiper position when used
as a potentiometer.
(2) Relative Linearity is utilized to determine the actual change in voltage between two successive tap positions when used as a poten-
tiometer. It is a measure of the error in step size.
(3) MI = RTOT/63 or (RH–RL)/63, single pot
(4) Max. = all four arrays cascaded together, Typical = individual array resolutions.

POWER-UP REQUIREMENTS (Power Up sequencing can affect correct recall of the wiper registers)
The preferred power-on sequence is as follows: First Vcc, then the potentiometer pins. It is suggested that Vcc
reach 90% of its final value before power is applied to the potentiometer pins. The Vcc ramp rate specification
should be met, and any glitches or slope changes in the Vcc line should be held to <100mV if possible. Also, Vcc
should not reverse polarity by more than 0.5V.
Notes: (5) This parameter is guaranteed by characterization or sample testing.
(6) tPUR and tPUW are the delays required from the time VCC is stable until the specified operation can be initiated. These parameters
are guaranteed by design.
(7) This parameter is guaranteed by design.
(8) Maximum Wiper Current is derated over temperature. See the Wiper Current Derating Curve.
(9) Ti value denotes the maximum noise glitch pulse width that the device will ignore on either SCL or SDA pins. Any noise glitch pulse
width that is greater than this maximum value will be considered as a valid clock or data pulse and may cause communication failure
to the device.
