DESCRIPTION
CAT5120/5121/5122 linear-taper digitally programmable
potentiometers perform the same function as a
mechanical potentiometer or a variable resistor. These
devices consist of a fixed resistor and a wiper contact
with 32-tap points that are digitally controlled through a
2-wire up/down serial interface.
PIN CONFIGURE
The CAT5120 is configured as a potentiometer. The
CAT5121 and CAT5122 are configured as variable
resistors. See Pin Configurations for part functionality.
Three resistance values are available: 10kΩ , 50kΩ and
100kΩ. These are available in space-saving 5-pin and
6-pin SC70 and SOT-23 packages.

CAT5120/5121/5122
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
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 will go into increment mode if U/D input
is high, and into decrement mode when U/D input is low.
Once the mode is set, the device will remain in that mode
until CS goes high again. A low-to-high transition at the
U/D pin will increment or decrement the wiper position
depending on the current mode (Figures 1 and 2).
The CAT5120/5121/5122 consist of a fixed resistor and
a wiper contact with 16-tap points that are digitally
controlled through a 2-wire up/down serial interface.
Three end-to-end resistance values are available: 10kΩ,
50kΩ and 100kΩ.
The CAT5120 is designed to operate as a potentiometer.
In this configuration, the low terminal of the resistor array
is connected to ground (pin 2).
When the CS input transitions to high (serial interface
inactive), the value of the counter is stored and the wiper
position is maintained.
The CAT5122 performs as a variable resistor. In this
device, the wiper terminal and high terminal of the
resistor array is connected at pin 5. The CAT5121 is a
similar variable resistor, except the low terminal is
connected to pin 5.
Note that when the wiper reaches the maximum (or
minimum) tap position, the wiper will not wrap around to
the minimum (or maximum) position.
Digital Interface Operation
Power-On Reset
All parts in this family feature power-on reset (POR)
circuitry that sets the wiper position to midscale at
power-up. By default, the chip is in the increment mode.
The Minipots have two modes of operation when the
serial interface is active: increment and decrement
mode. The serial interface is only active when CS is
low.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Adjustable Gain
Figure 5 shows how to use the variable resistor to
digitally adjust the gain of a noninverting op amp
configuration. Connect the CAT5121 in series with a
resistor to ground to form the adjustable gain control of
a noninverting amplifier. The Minipots have a low 5ppm/
˚C ratiometric tempco that allows for a very stable
adjustable gain configuration over temperature.
The Minipots are intended for circuits requiring digitally
controlled adjustable resistance, such as LCD contrast
control, where voltage biasing adjusts the display contrast.
Alternative Positive LCD Bias Control
Use an op amp to provide buffering and gain on the
output of the CAT5120. Connect the mechanical
potentiometer to the positive input of a noninverting op
amp (Figure 3) to select a portion of the input signal by
digitally controlling the wiper terminal. Figure 4 shows a
similar circuit for the CAT5121.

3. Dimension D does not include mold flash, protrusions or gate burrs. Mold flash, protrusions or gate burrs
shall not exceed 0.15mm per end. Dimension E1 does not include interlead flash or protrusion. Interlead
flash or protrusion shall not exceed 0.15mm per side. D and E1 dimensions are determined at Datum H.
The package top may be smaller than the package bottom. Dimensions D and E1 are determined at the outermost extremes of the plastic body exclusive of mold flash, the bar
burrs, gate burrs and interlead flash, but including any mismatch between the top and bottom of the plastic body. D and E1 dimensions are determined at Datum H.
Datums A & B to be determined at Datum H.
Package varation "AB" is a 5 lead version of the 6 lead variation "AA" where lead #5 has been removed from the 6 lead "AA" variation.
These dimensions apply to the flat section of the lead between 0.08mm and 0.15mm from the lead tip.
Dimension "b" does not include dambar protrusion. Allowable dambar protrusion shall be 0.08mm total in excess of the "b" dimension at maximum material condition. The dambar
cannot be located on the lower radius of the foot. Minimum space between protrusion and an adjacent lead shall not be less than 0.07mm.
