DESCRIPTION

The X9260 integrates 2 digitally controlled
potentiometer (XDCP) on a monolithic CMOS
integrated circuit.

The digitally controlled potentiometer is implemented
using 255 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. Each potentiometer has associated
with it a volatile Wiper Counter Register (WCR) and a
four nononvolatile Data Registers that can be directly
written to and read by the user. The contents of the
WCR controls the position of the wiper on the resistor
array though the switches. Power-up recalls the
contents of the default Data Register (DR0) to the
WCR.

The XDCP can be used as a three-terminal
potentiometer or as a two terminal variable resistor in
a wide variety of applications including control,
parameter adjustments, and signal processing.

ERIAL OUTPUT (SO)

SO is a serial data output pin. During a read cycle,
data is shifted out on this pin. Data is clocked out by
the falling edge of the serial clock.

ERIAL INPUT

S

SI is the serial data input pin. All opcodes, byte
addresses and data to be written to the pots and pot
registers are input on this pin. Data is latched by the
rising edge of the serial clock.

ERIAL CLOCK (SCK)

The SCK input is used to clock data into and out of the

is used in conjunction with the CS pin to select
the device. Once the part is selected and a serial
sequence is underway, HOLD

may be used to pause
the serial communication with the controller without
resetting the serial sequence. To pause, HOLD

must
be brought LOW while SCK is LOW. To resume
communication, HOLD

is brought HIGH, again while
SCK is LOW. If the pause feature is not used, HOLD
should be held HIGH at all times.

EVICE ADDRESS (A1 - A0)

D

The address inputs are used to set the 4-bit slave
address. A match in the slave address serial data
stream must be made with the address input in order
to initiate communication with the X9260.

PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION

The X9260 supports the SPI interface hardware
conventions. The device is accessed via the SI input
with data clocked in on the rising SCK. CS

during the entire operation.

The SO and SI pins can be connected together, since
they have three state outputs. This can help to reduce
system pin count.

Array Description

The X9260 is comprised of a resistor array (See
Figure 1). The array contains the equivalent of 255
discrete resistive segments that are connected in
series. The physical ends of each array are equivalent
to the fixed terminals of a mechanical potentiometer
(R

At both ends of each array and between each resistor
segment is a CMOS switch connected to the wiper

These switches are controlled by a Wiper Counter
Register (WCR). The 8-bits of the WCR (WCR[7:0])
are decoded to select, and enable, one of 256
switches (See Table 1).

Power-up and Down Requirements.

At all times, the voltages on the potentiometer pins
must be less than V+ and more than V-. During power­up and power-down, VCC, V+, and V- must reach their
final values within 1msecs of each other. The V

DEVICE DESCRIPTION

Wiper Counter Register (WCR)

The X9260 contains two Wiper Counter Registers, one
for each DCP potentiometer. The Wiper Counter
Register can be envisioned as a 8-bit parallel and
serial load counter with its outputs decoded to select
one of 256 switches along its resistor array. The
contents of the WCR can be altered in four ways: it
may be written directly by the host via the Write Wiper
Counter Register instruction (serial load); it may be
written indirectly by transferring the contents of one of
four associated data registers via the XFR Data
Register instruction (parallel load); it can be modified
one step at a time by the Increment/Decrement
instruction (See Instruction section for more details).
Finally, it is loaded with the contents of its Data
Register zero (DR0) upon power-up.

The Wiper Counter Register is a volatile register; that
is, its contents are lost when the X9260 is powered­down. Although the register is automatically loaded
with the value in DR0 upon power-up, this may be
different from the value present at power-down.
Power-up guidelines are recommended to ensure
proper loadings of the DR0 value into the WCR.

Data Registers (DR)

Each potentiometer has four 8-bit nonvolatile Data
Registers. These can be read or written directly by the
host. Data can also be transferred between any of the
four Data Registers and the associated Wiper Counter
Register. All operations changing data in one of the
Data Registers is a nonvolatile operation and will take
a maximum of 10ms.

If the application does not require storage of multiple
settings for the potentiometer, the Data Registers can
be used as regular memory locations for system
parameters or user preference data.

Bits [7:0] are used to store one of the 256 wiper
positions or data (0~255).

Status Register (SR)

This 1-bit Status Register is used to store the system
status.

WIP: Write In Progress status bit, read only.

– When WIP = 1, indicates that high-voltage write

cycle is in progress.

– When WIP = 0, indicates that no high-voltage write

cycle is in progress.

DEVICE DESCRIPTION

Instructions

DENTIFICATION BYTE ( ID AND A )

I

The first byte sent to the X9260 from the host,
following a CS

going HIGH to LOW, is called the
Identification Byte. The most significant four bits of the
slave address are a device type identifier. The ID[3:0]
bits is the device id for the X9260; this is fixed as
0101[B] (refer to Table 3).

The AD[3:0] bits in the ID byte is the internal slave
address. The physical device address is defined by
the state of the A3 - A0 input pins. The slave address
is externally specified by the user. The X9260
compares the serial data stream with the address
input state; a successful compare of both address bits
is required for the X9260 to successfully continue the

address matches the incoming device address sent
by the master executes the instruction. The A3 - A0
inputs can be actively driven by CMOS input signals

The next byte sent to the X9260 contains the instruction
and register pointer information. The three most
significant bits are used provide the instruction opcode
(I[3:0]). The RB and RA bits point to one of the four
Data Registers of each associated XDCP. The least
significant bit points to one of two Wiper Counter
Registers or Pots.The format is shown below in Table 4.

DEVICE DESCRIPTION

Instructions

Four of the ten instructions are three bytes in length.
These instructions are:

– Read Wiper Counter Register – read the current

wiper position of the selected potentiometer,

– Write Wiper Counter Register – change current

wiper position of the selected potentiometer,

– Read Data Register – read the contents of the

selected Data Register;

– Write Data Register – write a new value to the

selected Data Register.

– Read Status - This command returns the contents

of the WIP bit which indicates if the internal write
cycle is in progress.

The basic sequence of the three byte instructions is
illustrated in Figure 3. These three-byte instructions
exchange data between the WCR and one of the Data
Registers. A transfer from a Data Register to a WCR is
essentially a write to a static RAM, with the static RAM
controlling the wiper position. The response of the
wiper to this action will be delayed by t
from the WCR (current wiper position), to a Data
Register is a write to nonvolatile memory and takes a
minimum of t
between one of the two potentiometers and one of its
associated registers; or it may occur globally, where
the transfer occurs between all potentiometers and
one associated register. The Read Status Register
instruction is the only unique format (See Figure 5).

INCREMENT/DECREMENT COMMAND

The final command is Increment/Decrement (See
Figures 6 and 7). The Increment/Decrement command
is different from the other commands. Once the
command is issued and the X9260 has responded
with an acknowledge, the master can clock the
selected wiper up and/or down in one segment steps;
thereby, providing a fine tuning capability to the host.
For each SCL clock pulse (t
