Typical values represent average readings at 25°C, VDD = 5 V, VSS = 0 V, and VLOGIC = 5 V.
Resistor integral nonlinearity (R-INL) error is the deviation from an ideal value measured between the maximum resistance and the minimum resistance wiper
positions. R-DNL measures the relative step change from ideal between successive tap positions. The maximum wiper current is limited to (0.7 × VDD)/RAB.
3
Guaranteed by design and characterization, not subject to production test.
4
INL and DNL are measured at VWB with the RDAC configured as a potentiometer divider similar to a voltage output DAC. VA = VDD and VB = 0 V. DNL specification limits
of ±1 LSB maximum are guaranteed monotonic operating conditions.
5
Resistor Terminal A, Resistor Terminal B, and Resistor Terminal W have no limitations on polarity with respect to each other. Dual-supply operation enables ground
referenced bipolar signal adjustment.
6
Different from operating current; supply current for EEPROM program lasts approximately 30 ms.
7
Different from operating current; supply current for EEPROM read lasts approximately 20 µs.
8
PDISS is calculated from (IDD × VDD) + (ILOGIC × VLOGIC).
9
All dynamic characteristics use VDD/VSS = ±2.5 V, and VLOGIC = 2.5 V.
10
Endurance is qualified to 100,000 cycles per JEDEC Standard 22, Method A117 and measured at −40°C to +125°C.
11
Retention lifetime equivalent at junction temperature (TJ) = 125°C per JEDEC Standard 22, Method A117. Retention lifetime, based on an activation energy of 1 eV,
derates with junction temperature in the Flash/EE memory.

THEORY OF OPERATION
The AD5122/AD5142 digital programmable potentiometers are
designed to operate as true variable resistors for analog signals
within the terminal voltage range of VSS < VTERM < VDD. The resistor
wiper position is determined by the RDAC register contents. The
RDAC register acts as a scratchpad register that allows unlimited
changes of resistance settings. A secondary register (the input
register) can be used to preload the RDAC register data.
The RDAC register can be programmed with any position setting
using the SPI interface (depending on the model). When a
desirable wiper position is found, this value can be stored in the
EEPROM memory. Thereafter, the wiper position is always
restored to that position for subsequent power-ups. The storing
of EEPROM data takes approximately 15 ms; during this time,
the device is locked and does not acknowledge any new command,
preventing any changes from taking place.
RDAC REGISTER AND EEPROM
The RDAC register directly controls the position of the digital
potentiometer wiper. For example, when the RDAC register is
loaded with 0x80 (AD5142, 256 taps), the wiper is connected to
half scale of the variable resistor. The RDAC register is a standard
logic register; there is no restriction on the number of changes
allowed.
It is possible to both write to and read from the RDAC register
using the digital interface (see Table 10).
The contents of the RDAC register can be stored to the EEPROM
using Command 9 (see Table 16). Thereafter, the RDAC register
always sets at that position for any future on-off-on power
supply sequence. It is possible to read back data saved into the
EEPROM with Command 3 (see Table 10).
SPI SERIAL DATA INTERFACE
The AD5122/AD5142 contain a 4-wire, SPI-compatible digital
interface (SDI, SYNC, SDO, and SCLK). The write sequence
begins by bringing the SYNC line low. The SYNC pin must be
held low until the complete data-word is loaded from the SDI
pin. Data is loaded in at the SCLK falling edge transition, as
shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4. When SYNC returns high, the
serial data-word is decoded according to the instructions in
Table 16.
To minimize power consumption in the digital input buffers
when the part is enabled, operate all serial interface pins close
to the VLOGIC supply rails.
SYNC Interruption
In a standalone write sequence for the AD5122/AD5142,
the SYNC line is kept low for 16 falling edges of SCLK, and the
instruction is decoded when SYNC is pulled high. However, if
the SYNC line is kept low for less than 16 falling edges of SCLK,
the input shift register content is ignored, and the write sequence is
considered invalid.
SDO Pin
The serial data output pin (SDO) serves two purposes: to read
back the contents of the control, EEPROM, RDAC, and input
registers using Command 3 (see Table 10 and Table 16), and to
connect the AD5122/AD5142 to daisy-chain mode.
The SDO pin contains an internal open-drain output that needs an
external pull-up resistor. The SDO pin is enabled when SYNC is
pulled low, and the data is clocked out of SDO on the rising
edge of SCLK, as shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4.
Alternatively, the EEPROM can be written to independently
using Command 11 (see Table 16).
INPUT SHIFT REGISTER
For the AD5122/AD5142, the input shift register is 16 bits wide,
as shown in Figure 2. The 16-bit word consists of four control
bits, followed by four address bits and by eight data bits.
If the AD5122 RDAC or EEPROM registers are read from or
written to, the lowest data bit (Bit 0) is ignored.
Data is loaded MSB first (Bit 15). The four control bits determine
the function of the software command as listed in Table 10 and
Table 16.

Data Sheet
AD5122/AD5142
Daisy-Chain Connection
To prevent data from mislocking (for example, due to noise) the
part includes an internal counter, if the clock falling edges count
is not a multiple of 8, the part ignores the command. A valid
clock count is 16, 24, or 32. The counter resets when SYNC
returns high.
Daisy chaining minimizes the number of port pins required from
the controlling IC. As shown in Figure 39, the SDO pin of one
package must be tied to the SDI pin of the next package. The clock
period may need to be increased because of the propagation delay
of the line between subsequent devices. When two AD5122/
AD5142 devices are daisy chained, 32 bits of data are required.
The first 16 bits assigned to U2, and the second 16 bits assigned
to U1, as shown in Figure 40. Keep the SYNC pin low until all
32 bits are clocked into their respective serial registers.
The SYNC pin is then pulled high to complete the operation. A
typical connection is shown in Figure 39.

ADVANCED CONTROL MODES
Low Wiper Resistance Feature
The AD5122/AD5142 digital potentiometers include a set of user
programming features to address the wide number of applications
for these universal adjustment devices (see Table 16 and Table 18).
The AD5122/AD5142 include two commands to reduce the wiper
resistance between the terminals when the devices achieve full scale
or zero scale. These extra positions are called bottom scale, BS, and
top scale, TS. The resistance between Terminal A and Terminal W
at top scale is specified as RTS. Similarly, the bottom scale resistance
between Terminal B and Terminal W is specified as RBS.
Key programming features include the following:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Input register
Linear gain setting mode
Low wiper resistance feature
Lineal increment and decrement instructions
±6 dB increment and decrement instructions
Reset
Shutdown mode
The contents of the RDAC registers are unchanged by entering
in these positions. There are three ways to exit from top scale
and bottom scale: by using Command 12 or Command 13 (see
Table 16); by loading new data in an RDAC register, which
includes increment/decrement operations; or by entering
shutdown mode, Command 15 (see Table 16).
Input Register
The AD5122/AD5142 include one input register per RDAC
register. These registers allow preloading of the value for the
associated RDAC register. These registers can be written to using
Command 2 and read back from using Command 3 (see Table 16).
This feature allows a synchronous update of one or all the
RDAC registers at the same time.
The transfer from the input register to the RDAC register is
done synchronously by Command 8 (see Table 16).
Table 12 and Table 13 show the truth tables for the top scale
position and the bottom scale position, respectively, when the
potentiometer or linear gain setting mode is enabled.

If new data is loaded into an RDAC register, this RDAC register
automatically overwrites the associated input register.
Linear Gain Setting Mode
The patented architecture of the AD5122/AD5142 allows the
independent control of each string resistor, RAW, and RWB. To
enable this feature, use Command 16 (see Table 16) to set Bit D2
of the control register (see Table 18).
This mode of operation can control the potentiometer as two
independent rheostats connected at a single point, W terminal,
as opposed to potentiometer mode where each resistor is
complementary, RAW = RAB − RWB.
This feature enables a second input and an RDAC register per
channel, as shown in Table 17; however, the actual RDAC contents
remain unchanged. The same operations are valid for
potentiometer mode and linear gain setting mode.

Linear Increment and Decrement Instructions
The increment and decrement commands (Command 4 and
Command 5 in Table 16) are useful for linear step adjustment
applications. These commands simplify microcontroller software
coding by allowing the controller to send an increment or
decrement command to the device. The adjustment can be
individual or in a ganged potentiometer arrangement, where
all wiper positions are changed at the same time.
For an increment command, executing Command 4 automatically
moves the wiper to the next RDAC position. This command
can be executed in a single channel or multiple channels.
If the INDEP pin is pulled high, the device powers up in linear
gain setting mode and loads the values stored in the associated
memory locations for each channel (see Table 17). The INDEP pin
and D2 bit are connected internally to a logic OR gate, if any or
both are 1, the parts cannot operate in potentiometer mode.

AD5122/AD5142
Data Sheet
±6 dB Increment and Decrement Instructions
Shutdown Mode
Two programming instructions produce logarithmic taper
increment or decrement of the wiper position control by
an individual potentiometer or by a ganged potentiometer
arrangement where all RDAC register positions are changed
simultaneously. The +6 dB increment is activated by Command 6,
and the −6 dB decrement is activated by Command 7 (see Table 16).
For example, starting with the zero-scale position and executing
Command 6 ten times moves the wiper in 6 dB steps to the fullscale position. When the wiper position is near the maximum setting,
the last 6 dB increment instruction causes the wiper to go to the
full-scale position (see Table 14).
The AD5122/AD5142 can be placed in shutdown mode by
executing the software shutdown command, Command 15 (see
Table 16); and by setting the LSB (D0) to 1. This feature places
the RDAC in a special state. The contents of the RDAC register are
unchanged by entering shutdown mode. However, all commands
listed in Table 16 are supported while in shutdown mode. Execute
Command 15 (see Table 16) and set the LSB (D0) to 0 to exit
shutdown mode.
Incrementing the wiper position by +6 dB essentially doubles the
RDAC register value, whereas decrementing the wiper position by
−6 dB halves the register value. Internally, the AD5122/AD5142 use
shift registers to shift the bits left and right to achieve a ±6 dB
increment or decrement. These functions are useful for various
audio/video level adjustments, especially for white LED brightness
settings in which human visual responses are more sensitive to
large adjustments than to small adjustments.

EEPROM OR RDAC REGISTER PROTECTION
The EEPROM and RDAC registers can be protected by disabling
any update to these registers. This can be done by using software or
by using hardware. If these registers are protected by software,
set Bit D0 and/or Bit D1 (see Table 18), which protects the
EEPROM and RDAC registers independently.
When RDAC is protected, the only operation allowed is to copy
the EEPROM into the RDAC register.

INDEP PIN
If the INDEP pin is pulled high at power-up, the part operates
in linear gain setting mode, loading each string resistor, RAWx and
RWBx, with the value stored into the EEPROM (see Table 17). If
the pin is pulled low, the part powers up in potentiometer mode.
The INDEP pin and the D2 bit are connected internally to a logic
OR gate, if any or both are 1, the part cannot operate in
potentiometer mode (see Table 18).
Reset
The AD5122/AD5142 can be reset through software by executing
Command 14 (see Table 16) or through hardware on the low pulse
of the RESET pin. The reset command loads the RDAC registers
with the contents of the EEPROM and takes approximately 30 µs.
The EEPROM is preloaded to midscale at the factory, and initial
power-up is, accordingly, at midscale. Tie RESET to VLOGIC if
the RESET pin is not used.

AD5122/AD5142
RDAC ARCHITECTURE
To achieve optimum performance, Analog Devices, Inc., has
patented the RDAC segmentation architecture for all the digital
potentiometers. In particular, the AD5122/AD5142 employ a
three-stage segmentation approach, as shown in Figure 41. The
AD5122/AD5142 wiper switch is designed with the transmission
gate CMOS topology and with the gate voltage derived from
VDD and VSS.
A
The nominal resistance between Terminal A and Terminal B, RAB,
is 10 kΩ or 100 kΩ, and has 128/256 tap points accessed by the
wiper terminal. The 7-bit/8-bit data in the RDAC latch is decoded
to select one of the 128/256 possible wiper settings. The general
equations for determining the digitally programmed output
resistance between Terminal W and Terminal B are

In potentiometer mode, similar to the mechanical potentiometer,
the resistance between Terminal W and Terminal A also produces
a digitally controlled complementary resistance, RWA. RWA also
gives a maximum of 8% absolute resistance error. RWA starts at the
maximum resistance value and decreases as the data loaded into
the latch increases. The general equations for this operation are

In addition, the AD5122/AD5142 include new positions to
reduce the resistance between terminals. These positions are
called bottom scale and top scale. At bottom scale, the typical
wiper resistance decreases from 130 Ω to 60 Ω (RAB = 100 kΩ).
At top scale, the resistance between Terminal A and Terminal W is
decreased by 1 LSB, and the total resistance is reduced to 60 Ω
(RAB = 100 kΩ).

In the bottom scale condition or top scale condition, a finite

Terminal A to Terminal B, Terminal W to Terminal A, and
Terminal W to Terminal B, to the maximum continuous current
of ±6 mA or to the pulse current specified in Table 6. Otherwise,
degradation or possible destruction of the internal switch
contact can occur.

PROGRAMMING THE POTENTIOMETER DIVIDER
Figure 44. Maximum Terminal Voltages Set by VDD and VSS
Voltage Output Operation
The digital potentiometer easily generates a voltage divider at
wiper-to-B and wiper-to-A that is proportional to the input voltage
at A to B, as shown in Figure 43.

Figure 43. Potentiometer Mode Configuration
Connecting Terminal A to 5 V and Terminal B to ground
produces an output voltage at the Wiper W to Terminal B
ranging from 0 V to 5 V. The general equation defining the
output voltage at VW with respect to ground for any valid
input voltage applied to Terminal A and Terminal B is
VW (D ) =
R (D )
RWB (D )
× VA + AW

POWER-UP SEQUENCE
Because there are diodes to limit the voltage compliance at
Terminal A, Terminal B, and Terminal W (see Figure 44), it is
important to power up VDD first before applying any voltage to
Terminal A, Terminal B, and Terminal W. Otherwise, the diode
is forward-biased such that VDD is powered unintentionally. The
ideal power-up sequence is VSS, VDD, VLOGIC, digital inputs, and
VA, VB, and VW. The order of powering VA, VB, VW, and digital
inputs is not important as long as they are powered after VSS,
VDD, and VLOGIC. Regardless of the power-up sequence and the
ramp rates of the power supplies, once VLOGIC is powered, the
power-on preset activates, which restores EEPROM values to
the RDAC registers.
LAYOUT AND POWER SUPPLY BIASING

where:
RWB(D) can be obtained from Equation 1 and Equation 2.
RAW(D) can be obtained from Equation 3 and Equation 4.
Operation of the digital potentiometer in the divider mode
results in a more accurate operation over temperature. Unlike
the rheostat mode, the output voltage is dependent mainly on
the ratio of the internal resistors, RAW and RWB, and not the
absolute values. Therefore, the temperature drift reduces to
5 ppm/°C.
It is always a good practice to use a compact, minimum lead
length layout design. Ensure that the leads to the input are as
direct as possible with a minimum conductor length. Ground
paths should have low resistance and low inductance. It is also
good practice to bypass the power supplies with quality capacitors.
Apply low equivalent series resistance (ESR) 1 µF to 10 µF
tantalum or electrolytic capacitors at the supplies to minimize
any transient disturbance and to filter low frequency ripple.
Figure 45 illustrates the basic supply bypassing configuration
for the AD5122/AD5142.

TERMINAL VOLTAGE OPERATING RANGE
The AD5122/AD5142 are designed with internal ESD diodes
for protection. These diodes also set the voltage boundary of
the terminal operating voltages. Positive signals present on
Terminal A, Terminal B, or Terminal W that exceed VDD are
clamped by the forward-biased diode. There is no polarity
constraint between VA, VW, and VB, but they cannot be higher
than VDD or lower than VSS.
