MAXIM MAX5477, MAX5478, MAX5479 Technical data

General Description
The MAX5477/MAX5478/MAX5479 nonvolatile, dual, linear-taper, digital potentiometers perform the function of a mechanical potentiometer, but replace the mechanics with a simple 2-wire digital interface. Each device performs the same function as a discrete poten­tiometer or variable resistor and has 256 tap points.
The MAX5477/MAX5478/MAX5479 provide three nomi­nal resistance values: 10kΩ (MAX5477), 50kΩ (MAX5478), or 100kΩ (MAX5479). The nominal resistor temperature coefficient is 70ppm/°C end-to-end and 10ppm/°C ratiometric. The low temperature coefficient makes the devices ideal for applications requiring a low­temperature-coefficient variable resistor, such as low­drift, programmable gain-amplifier circuit configurations.
The MAX5477/MAX5478/MAX5479 are available in 16­pin 3mm x 3mm x 0.8mm thin QFN and 14-pin 4.4mm x 5mm TSSOP packages. These devices operate over the extended -40°C to +85°C temperature range.

Note 1: All devices are production tested at TA= +25°C and are guaranteed by design and characterization for -40°C < TA< +85°C. Note 2: The DNL and INL are measured with the potentiometer configured as a voltage-divider with H_ = V
DD
and L_ = GND. The
wiper terminal is unloaded and measured with a high-input-impedance voltmeter.
Note 3: The DNL and INL are measured with the potentiometer configured as a variable resistor. H_ is unconnected and L_ =
GND. For V
DD
= +5V, the wiper is driven with 400µA (MAX5477), 80µA (MAX5478), or 40µA (MAX5479). For VDD= +3V,
the wiper is driven with 200µA (MAX5477), 40µA (MAX5478), or 20µA (MAX5479).
Note 4: The wiper resistance is measured using the source currents given in Note 3. Note 5: The devices draw current in excess of the specified supply current when the digital inputs are driven with voltages between
(V
DD
- 0.5V) and (GND + 0.5V). See Supply Current vs. Digital Input Voltage in the Typical Operating Characteristics.
Note 6: Wiper at midscale with a 10pF load (DC measurement). L_ = GND, an AC source is applied to H_, and the W_ output is
measured. A 3dB bandwidth occurs when the AC W_/H_ value is 3dB lower than the DC W_/H_ value.
Note 7: The programming current exists only during power-up and EEPROM writes. Note 8: The SCL clock period includes rise and fall times (t
R
= tF). All digital input signals are specified with tR= tF= 2ns and
timed from a voltage level of (V
IL
+ VIH) / 2.
Note 9: Digital timing is guaranteed by design and characterization, and is not production tested. Note 10: This is measured from the STOP pulse to the time it takes the output to reach 50% of the output step size (divider mode). It
is measured with a maximum external capacitive load of 10pF.
Note 11: An appropriate bus pullup resistance must be selected depending on board capacitance. Refer to the I
2
C-bus specifica-
tion document linked to this web address: www.semiconductors.philips.com/acrobat/literature/9398/39340011.pdf
Note 12: The idle time begins from the initiation of the STOP pulse.
