Low Noise/Low Power/SPI Bus Single Digitally Controlled (XDCP™) Potentiometer
DATASHEET
FN8196 Rev.1.00 January 14, 2009
Description
The X9421 integrates a single digitally controlled potentiometer (XDCP) on a monolithic CMOS integrated circuit.
The digital 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 SPI bus interface. The potentiometer has associated with it a volatile Wiper Counter Register (WCR) and a four non-volatile Data Registers that can be directly written to and read by the user.
