PRELIMINARY FACT SHEET
programming rates up to 10MHz. The AS1500 is available in
four different resistor values. The AS1500 incorporates a
10kΩ, the AS1501 a 20kΩ, the AS1502 a 50kΩ and the
AS1503 a 100kΩ fixed resistor. The wiper contact taps the
fixed resistor at points determined by the 8-bit digital code
word. The resistance between the wiper and the endpoint of
the resistor is linear. The switching action is performed in a
way that no glitches occur. Furthermore the AS150x product
family includes a shutdown mode, where it consumes less
than 1µA. The AS150x is available in an 8-pin SOIC
package. All parts are guaranteed to operate over the
extended industrial temperature range of –40°C to +125°C.
