The X95840 integrates four digitally controlled
potentiometers (XDCP) on a monolithic CMOS integrated
circuit.
The digitally controlled potentiometers are implemented with
a combination of resistor elements and CMOS switches. The
position of the wipers are controlled by the user through the
2
I
C bus interface. Each potentiometer has an associated
volatile Wiper Register (WR) and a non-volatile Initial Value
Register (IVR), that can be directly written to and read by the
user. The contents of the WR controls the position of the
wiper. At power up the device recalls the contents of the four
DCP’s IVR to the corresponding WRs.
The DCPs can be used as three-terminal potentiometers or
as two-terminal variable resistors in a wide variety of
applications including control, parameter adjustments, and
signal processing.
