ISL2242
Low Noise, Low Power, SPI™ Bus, 128 Taps
Features
The ISL22426 integrates two digitally controlled
potentiometers (DCP) and non-volatile memory on a
monolithic CMOS integrated circuit.
• Two potentiometers in one package
(XDCP™)
FN6180.2
• 128 resistor taps
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
SPI serial 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
DCP’s IVR to the corresponding WR.
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.
• SPI serial interface
• Non-volatile storage of wiper position
• Wiper resistance: 70 typical @ VCC = 3.3V
• Shutdown mode
• Shutdown current 5µA max
• Power supply: 2.7V to 5.5V
• 50kor 10k total resistance
• High reliability
- Endurance: 1,000,000 data changes per bit per register
- Register data retention: 50 years @ T < +55°C
• 14 Ld TSSOP and 16 Ld QFN package
• Pb-free (RoHS compliant)

Pin Description
Bus Interface Pins
Potentiometer Pins
SERIAL CLOCK (SCK)
This is the serial clock input of the SPI serial interface.
RHI AND RLI (i = 0, 1)
The high (RHi) and low (RLi) terminals of the ISL22426 are
equivalent to the fixed terminals of a mechanical
potentiometer. RHi and RLi are referenced to the relative
position of the wiper and not the voltage potential on the
terminals. With WRi set to 127 decimal, the wiper will be
closest to RHi, and with the WRi set to 0, the wiper is closest
to RLi.
SERIAL DATA OUTPUT (SDO)
The SDO is an open drain serial data output pin. During a
read cycle, the data bits are shifted out at the falling edge of
the serial clock SCK, while the CS input is low.
SDO requires an external pull-up resistor for proper
operation.
SERIAL DATA INPUT (SDI)
RWI (i = 0, 1)
RWi is the wiper terminal and is equivalent to the movable
terminal of a mechanical potentiometer. The position of the
wiper within the array is determined by the WRi register.
SHDN
The SHDN pin forces the resistor to end-to-end open circuit
condition on RHi and shorts RWi to RLi. When SHDN is
returned to logic high, the previous latch settings put RWi at
the same resistance setting prior to shutdown. This pin is
logically ANDed with SHDN bit in ACR register. SPI interface
is still available in shutdown mode and all registers are
accessible. This pin must remain HIGH for normal operation.

FIGURE 15. DCP CONNECTION IN SHUTDOWN MODE

The SDI is the serial data input pin for the SPI interface. It
receives device address, operation code, wiper address and
data from the SPI external host device. The data bits are
shifted in at the rising edge of the serial clock SCK, while the
CS input is low.
CHIP SELECT (CS)
CS LOW enables the ISL22426, placing it in the active
power mode. A HIGH to LOW transition on CS is required
prior to the start of any operation after power up. When CS is
HIGH, the ISL22426 is deselected and the SDO pin is at
high impedance, and (unless an internal write cycle is
underway) the device will be in the standby state.
Principles of Operation
The ISL22426 is an integrated circuit incorporating two
DCPs with its associated registers, non-volatile memory and
the SPI serial interface providing direct communication
between host and potentiometers and memory. The resistor
array is comprised of individual resistors connected in
series. At either end of the array and between each resistor
is an electronic switch that transfers the potential at that
point to the wiper.
FN6180.2
September 8, 2009
ISL22426
The electronic switches on the device operate in a “make
before break” mode when the wiper changes tap positions.
When the device is powered down, the last value stored in
IVRi will be maintained in the non-volatile memory. When
power is restored, the contents of the IVRi is recalled and
loaded into the corresponding WRi to set the wiper to the
initial value.
DCP Description
Each DCP is implemented with a combination of resistor
elements and CMOS switches. The physical ends of each
DCP are equivalent to the fixed terminals of a mechanical
potentiometer (RH and RL pins). The RW pin of each DCP is
connected to intermediate nodes, and is equivalent to the
wiper terminal of a mechanical potentiometer. The position
of the wiper terminal within the DCP is controlled by volatile
Wiper Register (WR). Each DCP has its own WR. When the
WR of a DCP contains all zeroes (WR[6:0]= 00h), its wiper
terminal (RW) is closest to its “Low” terminal (RL). When the
WR register of a DCP contains all ones (WR[6:0]= 7Fh), its
wiper terminal (RW) is closest to its “High” terminal (RH). As
the value of the WR increases from all zeroes (0) to all ones
(127 decimal), the wiper moves monotonically from the
position closest to RL to the closest to RH. At the same time,
the resistance between RW and RL increases monotonically,
while the resistance between RH and RW decreases
monotonically.
While the ISL22426 is being powered up, all four WRs are
reset to 40h (64 decimal), which locates RW roughly at the
center between RL and RH. After the power supply voltage
becomes large enough for reliable non-volatile memory
reading, all WRs will be reload with the value stored in
corresponding non-volatile Initial Value Registers (IVRs).
The WRs can be read or written to directly using the SPI
serial interface as described in the following sections. The
SPI interface register address bits have to be set to 0000b or
0001b to access the WR of DCP0 or DCP1 respectively. The
WRi and IVRi can be read or written to directly using the SPI
serial interface as described in the following sections.

If VOL bit is 0, the non-volatile IVR register is accessible. If
VOL bit is 1, only the volatile WR is accessible. Note, value

default value of this bit is 0.
The SHDN bit (ACR[6]) disables or enables Shutdown
mode. This bit is logically ANDed with SHDN pin. When this
bit is 0, DCP is in Shutdown mode. The default value of
SHDN bit is 1.
The WIP bit (ACR[5]) is read only bit. It indicates that nonvolatile write operation is in progress. The WIP bit can be
read repeatedly after a non-volatile write to determine if the
write has been completed. It is impossible to write to the
IVRi, WRi or ACR while WIP bit is 1.
Shutdown Mode
The device can be put in Shutdown mode either by pulling the
SHDN pin to GND or setting the SHDN bit in the ACR register
to 0. The truth table for Shutdown mode is in Table 3.
TABLE 3.
Memory Description
The ISL22426 contains seven non-volatile and three volatile
8-bit registers. The memory map of ISL22426 is shown in
Table 1. The two non-volatile registers (IVRi) at address 0
and 1, contain initial wiper value and volatile registers (WRi)
contain current wiper position. In addition, five non-volatile
General Purpose registers from address 2 to address 6 are
available.

The ISL22426 supports an SPI serial protocol, mode 0. The
device is accessed via the SDI input and SDO output with
data clocked in on the rising edge of SCK, and clocked out
on the falling edge of SCK. CS must be LOW during

controlled by the host or master. The ISL22426 operates
only as a slave device.
All communication over the SPI interface is conducted by
sending the MSB of each byte of data first.
Device can receive more than one byte of data by auto
incrementing the address after each received byte. Note
after reaching the address 0110b, the internal pointer “rolls
over” to address 0000b.
The internal non-volatile write cycle starts after rising edge of
CS and takes up to 20ms. Thus, non-volatile registers must
be written individually.
Protocol Conventions
The first byte sent to the ISL22426 from the SPI host is the
Identification Byte. A valid Identification Byte contains 0101
as the four MSBs, with the following four bits set to 0.

(MSB)
A read operation to the ISL22426 is a three-byte operation. It
requires first, the CS transition from HIGH to LOW, then a
valid Identification Byte, then a valid instruction byte
following by “dummy” Data Byte is sent to SDI pin. The SPI
host reads the data from SDO pin on falling edge of SCK.
The host terminates the read operation by pulling the CS pin
from LOW to HIGH (see Figure 17).
(LSB)
The next byte sent to the ISL22426 contains the instruction
and register pointer information. The four MSBs are the
instruction and four LSBs are register address (see Table 5).

The ISL22426 will provide the Data Bytes to the SDO pin as
long as SCK is provided by the host from the registers
indicated by an internal pointer. This pointer initial value is
determined by the register address in the Read operation
instruction, and increments by one during transmission of
each Data Byte. After reaching the memory location 0110b,
the pointer “rolls over” to 0000b, and the device continues to
output the data for each received SCK clock.
There are only two valid instruction sets:
1011(binary) - is a Read operation
1100(binary) - is a Write operation
Write Operation
In order to read back the non-volatile IVR, it is recommended
that the application reads the ACR first to verify the WIP bit
is 0. If the WIP bit (ACR[5]) is not 0, the host should repeat
its reading sequence again.
A Write operation to the ISL22426 is a three-byte operation.
It first requires the CS transition from HIGH to LOW, then a
valid Identification Byte, then a valid instruction byte
following by Data Byte is sent to SDI pin. The host
terminates the write operation by pulling the CS pin from
LOW to HIGH. For a write to addresses 0000b or 0001b, the
MSB at address 8 (ACR[7]) determines if the Data Byte is to

Applications Information
B. Reading from the WR
This sequence will read the value from the WR1 (volatile):
Communicating with ISL22426
Communication with ISL22426 proceeds using SPI interface
through the ACR (address 1000b), IVRi (addresses 0000b,
0001b) and WRi (addresses 0000b, 0001b) registers.
The wiper of the potentiometer is controlled by the WRi
register. Writes and reads can be made directly to these
registers to control and monitor the wiper position without
any non-volatile memory changes. This is done by setting
MSB bit at address 1000b to 1.
The non-volatile IVRi stores the power up value of the wiper.
IVRs are accessible when MSB bit at address 1000b is set
to 0. Writing a new value to the IVRi register will set a new
power-up position for the wiper. Also, writing to this register
will load the same value into the corresponding WRi as the
IVRi. Reading from the IVRi will not change the WRi, if its
contents are different.
