The digitally controlled potentiometer is implemented
using 63 resistive elements in a series array. Between
each element are tap points connected to the wiper
terminal through switches. The position of the wiper on
the array is controlled by the user through the SPI bus
interface. The potentiometer has associated with it a
volatile Wiper Counter Register (WCR) and 4
nonvolatile Data Registers (DR0:DR3) that can be
directly written to and read by the user. The contents
of the WCR controls the position of the wiper on the
resistor array through the switches. Power-up recalls
the contents of DR0 to the WCR.
The XDCP can be used as a three-terminal
potentiometer or as a two-terminal variable resistor in
a wide variety of applications including control,
parameter adjustments, and signal processing.

PIN DESCRIPTIONS
Potentiometer Pins
Host Interface Pins
VH/RH, VL/RL
Serial Output (SO)
The VH/RH and VL/RL input are equivalent to the
terminal connections on either end of a mechanical
potentiometer.
SO is a push/pull serial data output pin. During a read
cycle, data is shifted out on this pin. Data is clocked
out by the falling edge of the serial clock.
VW/RW
The wiper output is equivalent to the wiper output of a
mechanical potentiometer.
Serial Input
SI is the serial data input pin. All opcodes, byte
addresses and data to be written to the potentiometer
and pot register are input on this pin. Data is latched
by the rising edge of the serial clock.
Hardware Write Protect Input (WP)
The WP pin when LOW prevents nonvolatile writes to
the Data Registers. Writing to the Wiper Counter
Register is not restricted.
Serial Clock (SCK)
The SCK input is used to clock data into and out of the
X9420.
Analog Supplies (V+, V-)
The analog supplies V+, V- are the supply voltages for
the XDCP analog section.
Chip Select (CS)
When CS is HIGH, the X9420 is deselected and the
SO pin is at high impedance, and (unless an internal
write cycle is underway) the device will be in the
standby state. CS LOW enables the X9420, placing it
in the active power mode. It should be noted that after
a power-up, a HIGH to LOW transition on CS is
required prior to the start of any operation.
Hold (HOLD)
HOLD is used in conjunction with the CS pin to select
the device. Once the part is selected and a serial
sequence is underway, HOLD may be used to pause
the serial communication with the controller without
resetting the serial sequence. To pause, HOLD must
be brought LOW while SCK is LOW. To resume
communication, HOLD is brought HIGH, again while
SCK is LOW. If the pause feature is not used, HOLD
should be held HIGH at all times.
System/Digital Supply (VCC)
VCC is the supply voltage for the system/digital
section. VSS is the system ground.

PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION
The X9420 is a highly integrated microcircuit
incorporating a resistor array and associated registers
and counter and the serial interface logic providing
direct communication between the host and the XDCP
potentiometer.
Serial Interface
The X9420 supports the SPI interface hardware
conventions. The device is accessed via the SI input
with data clocked in on the rising SCK. CS must be
LOW and the HOLD and WP pins must be HIGH
during the entire operation.
The SO and SI pins can be connected together, since
they have three state outputs. This can help to reduce
system pin count.
The X9420 contains a Wiper Counter Register. The
WCR can be envisioned as a 6-bit parallel and serial
load counter with its outputs decoded to select one of
sixty-four switches along its resistor array. The
contents of the WCR can be altered in four ways: it
may be written directly by the host via the Write Wiper
Counter Register instruction (serial load); it may be
written indirectly by transferring the contents of one of
four associated data registers via the XFR Data
Register instruction (parallel load); it can be modified
one step at a time by the Increment/ Decrement
instruction. Finally, it is loaded with the contents of its
data register zero (DR0) upon power-up.
The Wiper Counter Register is a volatile register; that
is, its contents are lost when the X9420 is powereddown. Although the register is automatically loaded
with the value in DR0 upon power-up, this may be
different from the value present at power-down.
Data Registers
The potentiometer has four 6-bit nonvolatile Data
Registers. These can be read or written directly by the
host. Data can also be transferred between any of the
four Data Registers and the WCR. It should be noted all
operations changing data in one of the Data Registers is
a nonvolatile operation and will take a maximum of 10ms.
If the application does not require storage of multiple
settings for the potentiometer, the Data Registers can
be used as regular memory locations for system
parameters or user preference data.

Array Description
The X9420 is comprised of one resistor array
containing 63 discrete resistive segments that are
connected in series. The physical ends of each array
are equivalent to the fixed terminals of a mechanical
potentiometer (VH/RH and VL/RL inputs).
At both ends of the array and between each resistor
segment is a CMOS switch connected to the wiper
(VW/RW) output. Within the individual array only one
switch may be turned on at a time.
These switches are controlled by a Wiper Counter
Register (WCR). The six bits of the WCR are decoded to
select, and enable, one of sixty-four switches. The block
diagram of the potentiometer is shown in Figure 1.

Figure 2. Address/Identification Byte Format
Write in Process
The contents of the Data Registers are saved to
nonvolatile memory when the CS pin goes from LOW to
HIGH after a complete write sequence is received by
the device. The progress of this internal write operation
can be monitored by a Write In Process bit (WIP). The
WIP bit is read with a Read Status command.

INSTRUCTIONS
Address/Identification (ID) Byte
Instruction Byte
The first byte sent to the X9420 from the host,
following a CS going HIGH to LOW, is called the
Address or Identification byte. The most significant
four bits of the slave address are a device type
identifier, for the X9420 this is fixed as 0101[B] (refer
to Figure 2).
The next byte sent to the X9420 contains the
instruction and register pointer information. The four
most significant bits are the instruction. The next two
bits point to one of four data registers. The format is
shown below in Figure 3.
The least significant bit in the ID byte selects one of
two devices on the bus. The physical device address
is defined by the state of the A0 input pin. The X9420
compares the serial data stream with the address
input state; a successful compare of the address bit is
required for the X9420 to successfully continue the
command sequence. The A0 input can be actively
driven by a CMOS input signal or tied to VCC or VSS.

The four high order bits of the instruction byte specify
the operation. The next two bits (R1 and R0) select
one of the four registers that is to be acted upon when
a register oriented instruction is issued. The last two
bits are defined as 0.
Five instructions require a three-byte sequence to
complete. These instructions transfer data between
the host and the X9420; either between the host and
one of the Data Registers or directly between the host
and the WCR. These instructions are:
Two of the eight instructions are two bytes in length
and end with the transmission of the instruction byte.
These instructions are:
– Read Wiper Counter Register—read the current
wiper position of the pot,
– Write Wiper Counter Register—change current
wiper position of the pot,
– XFR Data Register to Wiper Counter Register —
This instruction transfers the contents of one specified Data Register to the Wiper Counter Register.
– Read Data Register—read the contents of the
selected data register;
– XFR Wiper Counter Register to Data Register—This
instruction transfers the contents of the Wiper
Counter Register to the specified associated Data
Register.
– Write Data Register—write a new value to the
selected data register.
– Read Status—This command returns the contents
of the WIP bit which indicates if the internal write
cycle is in progress.
The basic sequence of the two byte instructions is
illustrated in Figure 4. These two-byte instructions
exchange data between the WCR and one of the Data
Registers. A transfer from a Data Register to a WCR is
essentially a write to a static RAM, with the static RAM
controlling the wiper position. The response of the wiper
to this action will be delayed by tWRL. A transfer from
the WCR (current wiper position), to a Data Register is
a write to nonvolatile memory and takes a minimum of
tWR to complete. The transfer can occur between the
potentiometer and one of its associated registers.
The sequence of these operations is shown in Figure
5 and Figure 6.
The final command is Increment/Decrement. It is
different from the other commands, because it’s length
is indeterminate. Once the command is issued, the
master can clock the wiper up and/or down in one
resistor segment steps; thereby, providing a fine
tuning capability to the host. For each SCK clock pulse
(tHIGH) while SI is HIGH, the selected wiper will move
one resistor segment towards the VH/RH terminal.
Similarly, for each SCK clock pulse while SI is LOW,
the selected wiper will move one resistor segment
towards the VL/RL terminal. A detailed illustration of
the sequence and timing for this operation are shown
in Figure 7 and Figure 8.

POWER-UP REQUIREMENTS (Power-up sequencing can affect correct recall of the wiper registers)
The preferred power-on sequence is as follows: First VCC, then V+ and V-, and then the potentiometer pins, RH, RL,
and RW. Voltage should not be applied to the potentiometer pins before V+ or V- is applied. The VCC ramp rate
specification should be met, and any glitches or slope changes in the VCC line should be held to <100mV if possible.
If VCC powers down, it should be held below 0.1V for more than 1 second before powering up again in order for
proper wiper register recall. Also, VCC should not reverse polarity by more than 0.5V. Recall of wiper position will not
be complete until VCC, V+ and V- reach their final value.
Notes: (5) This parameter is periodically sampled and not 100% tested.
(6) tPUR and tPUW are the delays required from the time the third (last) power supply (VCC, V+ or V-) is stable until the specific instruction
can be issued. These parameters are periodically sampled and not 100% tested.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Electronic potentiometers provide three powerful application advantages: (1) the variability and reliability of a solidstate potentiometer, (2) the flexibility of computer-based digital controls, and (3) the retentivity of nonvolatile memory
used for the storage of multiple potentiometer settings or data.
