DP7112
32-Tap Digital Potentiometer (DP)
with Buffered Wiper
Description
The DP7112 is
a
single digital potentiometer (DP)
designed as an electronic replacement for mechanical
potentiometers. Ideal for automated adjustments on high volume
production lines, they are also well suited for applications where
equipment requiring periodic adjustment is either difficult to access or
located in a hazardous or remote environment.
SOICï8
The DP7112 contains a ꢀꢁïWDS series resistor array connected
MSOPï8
between two terminals R and R . An up/down counter and decoder
H
L
that are controlled by three input pins, determines which tap is
connected to the wiper, R . The DP7112 wiper is buffered by an op
WB
amp that operates rail to rail. The wiper setting, stored in nonïvolatile
memory, is not lost when the device is powered down and is
automatically recalled when power is returned. The wiper can be
adjusted to test new system values without effecting the stored setting.
Wiperïcontrol of the DP7112 is accomplished with three input
control pins, CS, U/D, and INC. The INC input increments the wiper
in the direction which is determined by the logic state of the U/D input.
The CS input is used to select the device and also store the wiper
position prior to power down.
The digital potentiometer can be used as a buffered voltage
divider. For applications where the potentiometer is used as a
2ïterminal variable resistor, please refer to the DP7114. The
buffered wiper of the DP7112 is not compatible with that
application.
