Chip Select (CS)
Power Up and Down Requirements
The device is selected when the CS input is LOW. The
current wiper counter value is stored in nonvolatile memory
when CS is returned HIGH while the INC input is also HIGH.
After the store operation is complete the ISL95710 will be
placed in the low power standby mode until the device is
selected once again.
In order to prevent unwanted tap position changes, or an
inadvertent store, bring the CS and INC high before or
concurrently with the V
pin on power-up. The

potentiometer voltages must be applied after this sequence
is completed. During power-up, the data sheet parameters
for the DCP do not fully apply until 1ms after V

Principles of Operation
Pin Descriptions
There are three sections of the ISL95710: the input control,
wiper counter and decode section; the nonvolatile memory;
and the resistor array. The input control section operates as
an up/down counter. The output of this wiper counter is
decoded to turn on a electronic switch connecting a point on
the resistor array to the wiper output. The contents of the
wiper counter can be stored in nonvolatile memory and
retained for future use. The resistor array is comprised of
individual resistors connected in series. At either end of the
array and between each resistor is an electronic switch that
transfers the potential at that point to the wiper.

is the wiper terminal and is equivalent to the movable
terminal of a mechanical potentiometer. The position of the
wiper within the array is determined by the wiper counter.
The wiper, when at either fixed terminal, acts like its
mechanical equivalent and does not move beyond the last
position. The wiper counter does not wrap around when
clocked to either extreme.
Up/Down (U/D)
The U/D input controls the direction of the wiper movement
and whether the wiper counter is incriminated or
decremented.
The electronic switches on the device operate in a “make
before break” mode when the wiper changes tap positions. If
the wiper is moved several positions, multiple taps are
