DP7115

32-Tap Digital Potentiometer (DP)

Description

The

DP7115

is

a

single

digital

potentiometer

(DP)

designed

as

an

electronic

replacement

for

mechanical

potentiometers and trim pots. 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.

The DP7115 contains a

series resistor array connected

that are controlled by three input pins, determines which tap is

tap 15 at power up. The tap position is not stored in memory.

Wiper control of the DP7115 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.

The digital potentiometer can be used as a

terminal

resistive

divider

or

as

a

variable

resistor.

DPs bring variability and programmability to a wide variety of

applications including control, parameter adjustments, and signal

processing.

For a pin compatible device that recalls a stored tap position on

power up refer to the DP7114 data sheet.
