The VCC ramp rate specification is always in effect. There are multiple sections for each potentiometer in the X93255: an input control, a counter and decode section; the nonvolatile memory; and a resistor array. Each 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. Each 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 is connected to the RL terminal, forming a variable resistor from RH to RL. Pin Descriptions RH and RL The RH and RL pins of the X93255 are equivalent to the end terminals of a variable resistor. 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 per potentiometer. Up/Down (U/D) The U/D input controls the direction of a single potentiometer’s 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 pertaining potentiometer’s counter in the direction indicated by the logic level on the pertaining potentiometer’s U/D input. Chip Select (CS) Each 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 up to 10µs. 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 for each potentiometer. When power is restored, the contents of the memory are recalled and each wiper is set to the value last stored. A potentiometer is selected when the pertaining CS input is LOW. Its current counter value is stored in nonvolatile memory when the pertaining CS is returned HIGH while the pertaining INC input is also HIGH. After the store operation is complete, the affected potentiometer will be placed in the low power standby mode until the potentiometer is selected once again. 5 FN8187.1 February 4, 2008 X93255 Instructions and Programming The INC, U/D and CS inputs control the movement of the pertaining wiper along the resistor array. With CS set LOW, the pertaining potentiometer 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 each CS transitions HIGH while the pertaining INC input is also HIGH. In order to avoid an accidental store during power-up, each CS must go HIGH with VCC during initial power-up. When left open, each CS pin is internally pulled up to VCC by an internal 30k resistor. The system may select the X93255, move any 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.

This allows the host system to enable the device and then move each wiper up and down until the proper trim is attained. 6 FN8187.1 February 4, 2008 X93255 Thin Shrink Small Outline Plastic Packages (TSSOP) M14.173 N INDEX AREA E 0.25(0.010) M E1 2 SYMBOL 3 0.05(0.002) -A- INCHES GAUGE PLANE -B1 14 LEAD THIN SHRINK SMALL OUTLINE PLASTIC PACKAGE B M 0.25 0.010 SEATING PLANE L A D -C- e α A1 b A2 c 0.10(0.004) 0.10(0.004) M C A M B S MIN 1.
