Digitally Controlled Potentiometer
(XDCP™)
The Intersil X93154 is a digitally controlled potentiometer
(XDCP). The device consists of a resistor array, wiper
switches, a control section, and nonvolatile memory. The
wiper position is controlled by a 3-wire interface.
The potentiometer is implemented by a resistor array
composed of 31 resistive elements and a wiper switching
network. The position of the wiper element is controlled by
the CS, U/D, and INC inputs. The position of the wiper can
be stored in nonvolatile memory and then be recalled upon
during a subsequent power-up operation.
The device is connected as a two-terminal variable resistor
and can be used in a wide variety of applications including:
- Bias and Gain Control
- LCD Contrast Adjustment

Power-Up and Power-Down Requirements
There are no restrictions on the power-up or power-down
conditions of VCC and the voltages applied to the
potentiometer pins provided that VCC is always more positive
than or equal to VH and VL, i.e., VCC  VH,VL. The VCC ramp
rate specification is always in effect.
Pin Descriptions
RH and RL
The RH and RL pins of the X93154 are equivalent to the fixed
terminals of a mechanical potentiometer. The minimum voltage
is VSS and the maximum is VCC. The terminology of RH and
RL references the relative position of the terminal in relation to
wiper movement direction selected by the U/D input.
Up/Down (U/D)
The U/D input controls the direction of the wiper movement
and whether the counter is incremented or decremented.
Increment (INC)
The INC input is negative-edge triggered. Toggling INC will
move the wiper and either increment or decrement the counter
in the direction indicated by the logic level on the U/D input.
Chip Select (CS)
The device is selected when the CS input is LOW. The current
counter value is stored in nonvolatile memory when CS is
returned HIGH while the INC input is also HIGH. After the store
operation is complete the X93154 will be placed in the low
power standby mode until the device is selected once again.

Principles of Operation
There are three sections of the X93154: the input control,
counter and decode section; the nonvolatile memory; and the
resistor array. The input control section operates just like an
up/down counter. The output of this counter is decoded to turn
on a single electronic switch connecting a point on the resistor
array to the wiper output. Under the proper conditions the
contents of the counter can be stored in nonvolatile memory
and retained for future use. The resistor array is comprised of
31 individual resistors connected in series. At either end of the
array and between each resistor is an electronic switch that
transfers the connection at that point to the wiper.
The wiper, when at either fixed terminal, acts like its
mechanical equivalent and does not move beyond the last
position. That is, the counter does not wrap around when
clocked to either extreme.
If the wiper is moved several positions, multiple taps are
connected to the wiper for tIW (INC to VW change). The
2-terminal resistance value for the device can temporarily
change by a significant amount if the wiper is moved several
positions.
When the device is powered down, the last wiper position
stored will be maintained in the nonvolatile memory. When
power is restored, the contents of the memory are recalled and
the wiper is set to the value last stored.

Instructions and Programming
Mode Selection
The INC, U/D and CS inputs control the movement of the wiper
along the resistor array. With CS set LOW, the device is
selected and enabled to respond to the U/D and INC inputs.
HIGH-to-LOW transitions on INC will increment or decrement
(depending on the state of the U/D input) a 5-bit counter. The
output of this counter is decoded to select one of thirty-two
wiper positions along the resistive array.
The value of the counter is stored in nonvolatile memory
whenever CS transitions HIGH while the INC input is also
HIGH. In order to avoid an accidental store during power-up,
CS must go HIGH with VCC during initial power-up. When
performing multiple write operations, VCC must not decrease
by more than 150mV from its initial value. When left open, the
CS pin is internally pulled up to VCC by an internal 30k resistor.

INPUTS
OUTPUTS
The system may select the X93154, move the wiper and
deselect the device without having to store the latest wiper
position in nonvolatile memory. After the wiper movement is
performed as previously described and once the new position
is reached, the system must keep INC LOW while taking CS
HIGH. The new wiper position will be maintained until changed
by the system or until a power-up/down cycle recalled the
previously stored data. In order to recall the stored position of
the wiper on power-up, the CS pin must be held HIGH.

This procedure allows the system to always power-up to a
preset value stored in nonvolatile memory; then during system
operation minor adjustments could be made. The adjustments
might be based on user preference, system parameter
changes due to temperature drift, or other system trim
requirements.
