Single, Low Voltage Digitally Controlled Potentiometer (XDCP™) ISL23415 Features The ISL23415 is a volatile, low voltage, low noise, low power, SPI™ bus, 256 taps, single digitally controlled potentiometer (DCP), which integrates DCP core, wiper switches and control logic on a monolithic CMOS integrated circuit. • 256 resistor taps The digitally controlled potentiometer is implemented with a combination of resistor elements and CMOS switches. The position of the wipers are controlled by the user through the SPI bus interface. The potentiometer has an associated volatile Wiper Register (WR) that can be directly written to and read by the user. The contents of the WR controls the position of the wiper. When powered on, the ISL23415’s wiper will always commence at mid-scale (128 tap position). The low voltage, low power consumption, and small package of the ISL23415 make it an ideal choice for use in battery operated equipment. In addition, the ISL23415 has a VLOGIC pin allowing down to 1.2V bus operation, independent from the VCC value. This allows for low logic levels to be connected directly to the ISL23415 without passing through a voltage level shifter. The DCP 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. • SPI serial interface - No additional level translator for low bus supply - Daisy Chaining of multiple DCP • Wiper resistance: 70Ω typical @ VCC = 3.3V • Shutdown Mode - forces the DCP into an end-to-end open circuit and RW is shorted to RL internally • Power-on preset to mid-scale (128 tap position) • Standby current <2.5µA max • Shutdown current <2µA • Power supply - VCC = 1.7V to 5.5V analog power supply - VLOGIC = 1.2V to 5.5V SPI bus/logic power supply • DCP terminal voltage from 0V to VCC • 10kΩ, 50kΩ or 100kΩ total resistance • Extended industrial temperature range: -40°C to +125°C • 10 Ld MSOP or 10 Ld µTQFN packages • Pb-free (RoHS compliant) Applications • Power supply margining • RF power amplifier bias compensation • LCD bias compensation • Gain adjustment in battery powered instruments • Portable medical equipment calibration 10000 VREF RESISTANCE (Ω) 8000 6000 ISL23415 4000 0 VREF_M + ISL28114 2000 0 - 50 100 150 200 250 TAP POSITION (DECIMAL) FIGURE 1.

The RH and RL are referenced to the relative position of the wiper and not the voltage potential on the terminals. With the WR register set to 255 decimal, the wiper will be closest to RH, and with the WR register set to 0, the wiper is closest to RL. This input is the serial clock of the SPI serial interface. RW The RW is the wiper terminal, and it is equivalent to the moveable terminal of a mechanical potentiometer. The position of the wiper within the array is determined by the WR register. SERIAL DATA INPUT (SDI) The SDI is a serial data input pin for SPI interface. It receives operation code, wiper address and data from the SPI remote host device. The data bits are shifted in at the rising edge of the serial clock SCK, while the CS input is low. SERIAL DATA OUTPUT (SDO) The SDO is a serial data output pin. During a read cycle, the data bits are shifted out on the falling edge of the serial clock SCK and will be available to the master on the following rising edge of SCK. The output type is configured through ACR[1] bit for Push-Pull or Open Drain operation. Default setting for this pin is Push-Pull. An 12 FN7780.0 December 15, 2010 ISL23415 external pull-up resistor is required for Open Drain output operation. When CS is HIGH, the SDO pin is in tri-state (Z) or high-tri-state (Hi-Z) depends on the selected configuration. CHIP SELECT (CS) CS LOW enables the ISL23415, 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 ISL23415 is deselected and the SDO pin is at high impedance, and the device will be in the standby state. Principles of Operation The ISL23415 is an integrated circuit incorporating one DCP with its associated registers and an SPI serial interface providing direct communication between a host and the potentiometer. 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. Register (ACR) at address 10h contains information and control bits described in Table 2. TABLE 1. MEMORY MAP ADDRESS (hex) VOLATILE DEFAULT SETTING (hex) 10 ACR 40 0 WR 80 TABLE 2. ACCESS CONTROL REGISTER (ACR) BIT # 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 NAME 0 SHDN 0 0 0 0 SDO 0 The SHDN bit (ACR[6]) disables or enables Shutdown mode. When this bit is 0, i.e., each DCP is forced to end-to-end open circuit and each RW is shorted to RL as shown in Figure 25. Default value of the SHDN bit is 1. RH The electronic switches on the device operate in a “make before break” mode when the wiper changes tap positions. Voltage at any DCP pins, RH, RL or RW, should not exceed VCC level at any conditions during power-up and normal operation. The VLOGIC pin needs to be connected to the SPI bus supply which allows reliable communication with the wide range of microcontrollers and independent of the VCC level. This is extremely important in systems where the digital supply has lower levels than the analog supply. DCP Description Each DCP is implemented with a combination of resistor elements and CMOS switches. The physical ends of DCP are equivalent to the fixed terminals of a mechanical potentiometer (RH and RL pins). The RW pin of the 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 the 8-bit volatile Wiper Register (WR). When the WR of a DCP contains all zeroes (WR[7:0] = 00h), its wiper terminal (RW) is closest to its “Low” terminal (RL). When the WR register of a DCP contains all ones (WR[7:0] = FFh), 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 (255 decimal), the wiper moves monotonically from the position closest to RL to the position 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 ISL23415 is being powered up, the WR is reset to 80h (128 decimal), which locates RW roughly at the center between RL and RH. The WR can be read or written to directly using the SPI serial interface as described in the following sections. Memory Description The ISL23415 contains two volatile 8-bit registers: the Wiper Register (WR) and the Access Control Register (ACR). Memory map of ISL23415 is in Table 1. The Wiper Register WR at address 0 contains current wiper position of the DCP. The Access Control 13 RW RL FIGURE 25. DCP CONNECTION IN SHUTDOWN MODE The SDO bit (ACR[1]) configures type of SDO output pin. The default value of SDO bit is 0 for Push-Pull output. The SDO pin can be configured as Open Drain output for some applications. In this case, an external pull-up resistor is required, reference the “Serial Interface Specification” on page 7. SPI Serial Interface The ISL23415 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 communication with the ISL23415. The SCK and CS lines are controlled by the host or master. The ISL23415 operates only as a slave device. All communication over the SPI interface is conducted by sending the MSB of each byte of data first. Protocol Conventions The SPI protocol contains Instruction Byte followed by one or more Data Bytes. A valid Instruction Byte contains instruction as the three MSBs, with the following five register address bits (see Table 3). The next byte sent to the ISL23415 is the Data Byte. TABLE 3. INSTRUCTION BYTE FORMAT BIT # 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 I2 I1 I0 R4 R3 R2 R1 R0 Table 4 contains a valid instruction set for ISL23415. If the [R4:R0] bits are zero, then the read or write is to the WR register. If the [R4:R0] are 10000, then the operation is to the ACR. FN7780.0 December 15, 2010 ISL23415 Write Operation Read Operation A write operation to the ISL23415 is a two or more bytes operation. It requires first, the CS transition from HIGH-to-LOW. Then host send a valid Instruction Byte, followed by one or more Data Bytes to SDI pin. The host terminates the write operation by pulling the CS pin from LOW-to-HIGH. Instruction is executed on rising edge of CS. A Read operation to the ISL23415 is a four byte operation. It requires first, the CS transition from HIGH-to-LOW. Then host send a valid Instruction Byte, followed by “dummy” Data Byte, NOP Instruction Byte and another “dummy” Data Byte to SDI pin. The SPI host receives the Instruction Byte (instruction code + register address) and requested Data Byte from SDO pin on the rising edge of SCK during third and fourth bytes respectively. The host terminates the read by pulling the CS pin from LOW-to-HIGH (see Figure 27). TABLE 4.

FOUR BYTE READ SEQUENCE 14 FN7780.0 December 15, 2010 ISL23415 Applications Information The first part starts by HIGH-to-LOW transition on CS line, followed by N two bytes read instruction on SDI line with reversed chain access sequence: the instruction byte + dummy data byte for the last DCP in chain is going first, followed by LOW-to-HIGH transition on CS line. The read instructions are executed during second part of read sequence. It also starts by HIGH-to-LOW transition on CS line, followed by N number of two bytes NOP instructions on SDI line and LOW-to-HIGH transition of CS. The data is read on every even byte during second part of read sequence while every odd byte contains code 111b followed by address from which the data is being read. Communicating with ISL23415 Communication with ISL23415 proceeds using SPI interface through the ACR (address 10000b) and WR (addresses 00000b) registers. The wiper of the potentiometer is controlled by the WR register. Writes and reads can be made directly to these register to control and monitor the wiper position. Daisy Chain Configuration Wiper Transition When application needs more than one ISL23415, it can communicate with all of them without additional CS lines by daisy chaining the DCPs as shown on Figure 28. In Daisy Chain configuration, the SDO pin of the previous chip is connected to the SDI pin of the following chip, and each CS and SCK pins are connected to the corresponding microcontroller pins in parallel, like regular SPI interface implementation. The Daisy Chain configuration can also be used for simultaneous setting of multiple DCPs. Note, the number of daisy chained DCPs is limited only by the driving capabilities of SCK and CS pins of microcontroller; for larger number of SPI devices buffering of SCK and CS lines is required. When stepping up through each tap in voltage divider mode, some tap transition points can result in noticeable voltage transients, or overshoot/undershoot, resulting from the sudden transition from a very low impedance “make” to a much higher impedance “break within a short period of time (<1µs). There are several code transitions such as 0Fh to 10h, 1Fh to 20h,..., EFh to FFh, which have higher transient glitch. Note, that all switching transients will settle well within the settling time as stated in the datasheet. A small capacitor can be added externally to reduce the amplitude of these voltage transients, but that will also reduce the useful bandwidth of the circuit, thus may not be a good solution for some applications. It may be a good idea, in that case, to use fast amplifiers in a signal chain for fast recovery. Daisy Chain Write Operation The write operation starts by HIGH-to-LOW transition on CS line, followed by N number of two bytes write instructions on SDI line with reversed chain access sequence: the instruction byte + data byte for the last DCP in chain is going first, as shown in Figure 29, where N is a number of DCPs in chain. The serial data is going through DCPs from DCP0 to DCP(N-1) as follow: DCP0 --> DCP1 --> DCP2 --> ... --> DCP(N-1). The write instruction is executed on the rising edge of CS for all N DCPs simultaneously. VLOGIC Requirements It is recommended to keep VLOGIC powered all the time during normal operation. In a case where turning VLOGIC OFF is necessary, it is recommended to ground the VLOGIC pin of the ISL23415. Grounding the VLOGIC pin or both VLOGIC and VCC does not affect other devices on the same bus. It is good practice to put a 1µF capacitor in parallel with 0.1µF decoupling capacitor close to the VLOGIC pin. Daisy Chain Read Operation The read operation consists of two parts: first, send the read instructions (N two bytes operation) with valid address; second, read the requested data while sending NOP instructions (N two bytes operation) as shown in Figures 30 and 31. VCC Requirements and Placement It is recommended to put a 1µF capacitor in parallel with 0.1µF decoupling capacitor close to the VCC pin.
