DESCRIPTION
The Intersil X9312 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 99 resistive elements and a wiper
switching network. Between each element and at
either end are tap points accessible to the wiper
terminal. 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 a subsequent
power-up operation.
The device 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
– signal processing

PIN NAMES
PIN DESCRIPTIONS
RH/VH and RL/VL
Symbol
The high (RH/VH) and low (RL/VL) terminals of the
X9312 are equivalent to the fixed terminals of a
mechanical potentiometer. The minimum voltage is 0V
and the maximum is +15V. The terminology of RL/VL
and RH/VH references the relative position of the
terminal in relation to wiper movement direction
selected by the U/D input and not the voltage potential
on the terminal.
RW/VW
Rw/Vw is the wiper terminal and is equivalent to the
movable terminal of a mechanical potentiometer. The
position of the wiper within the array is determined by
the control inputs. The wiper terminal series resistance
is typically 40Ω.
Up/Down (U/D)
The U/D input controls the direction of the wiper
movement and whether the counter is incriminated 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 X9312
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 X9312: 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 99 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.
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.
The electronic switches on the device operate in a
“make before break” mode when the wiper changes
tap positions. If the wiper is moved several positions,
multiple taps are connected to the wiper for tIW (INC to
VW change). The RTOTAL value for the device can
temporarily be reduced 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
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 seven bit counter. The output of this
counter is decoded to select one of one hundred 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.
The system may select the X9312, 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 described above 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 powerup/down cycle recalled the
previously stored data.
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, etc...

Electronic digitally controlled (XDCP) potentiometers provide three powerful application advantages; (1) the variability
and reliability of a solid-state potentiometer, (2) the flexibility of computer-based digital controls, and (3) the retentivity
