Dual supply version of X9259
DESCRIPTION
The X9258 integrates 4 digitally controlled
potentiometers (XDCP) on a monolithic CMOS
integrated circuit.
The digitally controlled potentiometer is implemented
using 255 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 though 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.
