The AD5253/AD5254 are quad-channel, I2C®, nonvolatile mem-ory, digitally controlled potentiometers with 64/256 positions, respectively. These devices perform the same electronic adjust-ment functions as mechanical potentiometers, trimmers, and variable resistors. The parts’ versatile programmability allows multiple modes of operation, including read/write access in the RDAC and EEMEM registers, increment/decrement of resistance, resistance changes in ±6 dB scales, wiper setting readback, and extra EEMEM for storing user-defined information, such as memory data for other components, look-up table, or system identification information. The AD5253/AD5254 allow the host I2C controllers to write any of the 64-/256-step wiper settings in the RDAC registers and store them in the EEMEM. Once the settings are stored, they are restored automatically to the RDAC registers at system power-on; the settings can also be restored dynamically. The AD5253/AD5254 provide additional increment, decrement, +6 dB step change, and –6 dB step change in synchronous or asynchronous channel update mode. The increment and decrement functions allow stepwise linear adjustments, with a ± 6 dB step change equivalent to doubling or halving the RDAC wiper setting. These functions are useful for steep-slope, nonlinear adjustments, such as white LED brightness and audio volume control. The AD5253/AD5254 have a patented resistance-tolerance storing function that allows the user to access the EEMEM and obtain the absolute end-to-end resistance values of the RDACs for precision applications. The AD5253/AD5254 are available in TSSOP-20 packages in 1 kO, 10 kO, 50 kO, and 100 kO options. All parts are guaranteed to operate over the –40°C to +85°C extended industrial temperature range. 1The terms nonvolatile memory and EEMEM are used interchangeably. 2The terms digital potentiometer and RDAC are used interchangeably.
