MAX5427/MAX5428/MAX5429
General Description
The MAX5427/MAX5428/MAX5429 linear-taper digital
potentiometers function as mechanical potentiometers,
but replace the mechanics with a simple 2-wire digital
interface. These digital potentiometers are unique in that
they have an optional one-time programmable feature
that either sets the wiper’s power-on reset (POR) position to a user-defined value, or the wiper can be set and
the interface disabled to prevent further adjustment.
The MAX5427 has an end-to-end resistance of 100kΩ,
the MAX5428 a resistance of 50kΩ, and the MAX5429 a
resistance of 10kΩ. All these devices have 32 wiper
positions, operate from a single 2.7V to 5.5V supply, and
use less than 1.5µA (max) static supply current.
The MAX5427/MAX5428/MAX5429 are available in
8-pin thin QFN and µMAX packages. Each device is
guaranteed over the extended temperature range of
-40°C to +85°C.

Detailed Description
The MAX5427/MAX5428/MAX5429 are 100kΩ/50kΩ/
10kΩ (end-to-end resistance) digitally controlled potentiometers. They have 32 tap positions that are accessible
to the wiper along the resistor array between H and L.
The wiper (W) position is adjusted sequentially through
the tap positions using a simple 2-wire interface. These
digital potentiometers have an optional one-time programmable feature that sets the POR position of the
wiper. The 2-wire interface can then be disabled, permanently preventing unwanted adjustment.
Digital Interface Operation
The MAX5427/MAX5428/MAX5429 have two modes of
operation when the serial interface is active: increment
mode and decrement mode. The serial interface is only
active when CS is low.
The CS and U/D inputs control the position of the wiper
along the resistor array. When CS transitions from high
to low, the part goes into increment mode if U/D is high
(Figure 2), and into decrement mode if U/D is low
(Figure 3). Once the mode is set, the device remains in
that mode until CS goes high. A low-to-high transition at
the U/D increments or decrements the wiper position
depending on the current mode.
When the CS input transitions to high (when serial interface is inactive) and U/D is low, the wiper increments or
decrements one position. If U/D is high when CS transitions to high, the wiper remains in the same position.

The value of the counter is then stored and the wiper
position is maintained.
The wiper performs a make-before-break transition,
ensuring that there is never an open circuit during a transition from one resistor tap to another. When the wiper is
at either end (max/min) of the resistor array, additional
transitions in the direction of the endpoint do not change
the counter value (the counter does not wrap around).
One-Time Programming
The factory-set default position of the wiper on powerup is tap 16. However, the power-up position can be
changed once using the one-time programming feature. After the wiper is moved to the desired position,
the programming sequence is initiated by setting U/D
high, applying 11V to VPP, and then taking CS low. Five
pulses on CS (consisting of CS starting from low and
going high for tCH and then low for tCL) program the
device (Figure 4). The programming voltage should
then be taken to zero. After the device is programmed,
VPP can be set to zero or be allowed to float. The wiper
position is still adjustable, but always returns to this
programmed position on power-up.
6
If the intent is to program the device to a specific wiper
position and not to allow further adjustments, then six
programming pulses are required (as opposed to five),
as shown in Figure 4. The sixth pulse locks the wiper
position and disables the serial interface. This also
allows U/D and CS to float without any increase in supply current. Once the lockout bit is set, no further
adjustment to the potentiometer is possible, effectively
changing the potentiometer into a fixed resistor-divider
(Table 1).

It is recommended that the user either use six CS pulses (convert to a fixed voltage-divider) or five pulses
(program the initial power-up value of the device, but
still be able to adjust the wiper). If the device is programmed with five pulses and later it is desired to disable the interface (convert to a fixed voltage-divider),
then care must be taken to ensure that the wiper is in
the same position as it was originally set to (when programmed with five pulses). The full six programming
pulses must be applied. If the wiper is not in its original
programmed position prior to disabling the interface,
the final locked-out position is correct. Note that once
the six-pulse program occurs, no further programming
is possible.
The VPP power supply must be able to source at least
5mA and have a good transient response. The VPP power
supply should be decoupled with 22µF and have no more
than 250µH of inductance and/or 40Ω of parasitic resistance between the capacitors and the device (Figure 5).
The device does not require decoupling capacitors near
VPP, provided the above guidelines are met.
