AD5124/AD5144 24-Lead LFCSP GENERAL DESCRIPTION The AD5124/AD5144/AD5144A potentiometers provide a nonvolatile solution for 128-/256-position adjustment applications, offering guaranteed low resistor tolerance errors of ±8% and up to ±6 mA current density in the Ax, Bx, and Wx pins. The AD5124/AD5144/AD5144A are available in a compact, 24-lead, 4 mm × 4 mm LFCSP and a 20-lead TSSOP. The parts are guaranteed to operate over the extended industrial temperature range of −40°C to +125°C. The low resistor tolerance and low nominal temperature coefficient simplify open-loop applications as well as applications requiring tolerance matching. Table 1. Family Models The linear gain setting mode allows independent programming of the resistance between the digital potentiometer terminals, through the RAW and RWB string resistors, allowing very accurate resistor matching. The high bandwidth and low total harmonic distortion (THD) ensure optimal performance for ac signals, making these devices suitable for filter design. The low wiper resistance of only 40 Ω at the ends of the resistor array allow for pin-to-pin connection. The wiper values can be set through an SPI-/I2C-compatible digital interface that is also used to read back the wiper register and EEPROM contents.

The resistor wiper position is determined by the RDAC register contents. The RDAC register acts as a scratchpad register that allows unlimited changes of resistance settings. A secondary register (the input register) can be used to preload the RDAC register data. The RDAC register can be programmed with any position setting using the I2C or SPI interface (depending on the model). When a desirable wiper position is found, this value can be stored in the EEPROM memory. Thereafter, the wiper position is always restored to that position for subsequent power-ups. The storing of the EEPROM data takes approximately 15 ms; during this time, the device is locked and does not acknowledge any new command, preventing any changes from taking place. RDAC REGISTER AND EEPROM The RDAC register directly controls the position of the digital potentiometer wiper. For example, when the RDAC register is loaded with 0x80 (AD5144/AD5144A, 256 taps), the wiper is connected to half scale of the variable resistor. The RDAC register is a standard logic register; there is no restriction on the number of changes allowed. It is possible to both write to and read from the RDAC register using the digital interface (see Table 14). The contents of the RDAC register can be stored to the EEPROM using Command 9 (see Table 14). Thereafter, the RDAC register always sets at that position for any future on-off-on power supply sequence. It is possible to read back data saved into the EEPROM with Command 3 (see Table 14). Alternatively, the EEPROM can be written to independently using Command 11 (see Table 20). INPUT SHIFT REGISTER SERIAL DATA DIGITAL INTERFACE SELECTION, DIS The AD5124/AD5144 LFSCP provides the flexibility of a selectable interface. When the digital interface select (DIS) pin is tied low, the SPI mode is engaged. When the DIS pin is tied high, the I2C mode is engaged. SPI SERIAL DATA INTERFACE The AD5124/AD5144 contain a 4-wire, SPI-compatible digital interface (SDI, SYNC, SDO, and SCLK). The write sequence begins by bringing the SYNC line low. The SYNC pin must be held low until the complete data-word is loaded from the SDI pin. Data is loaded in at the SCLK falling edge transition, as shown in Figure 6. When SYNC returns high, the serial dataword is decoded according to the instructions in Table 20. To minimize power consumption in the digital input buffers when the part is enabled, operate all serial interface pins close to the VLOGIC supply rails. SYNC Interruption In a standalone write sequence for the AD5124/AD5144, the SYNC line is kept low for 16 falling edges of SCLK, and the instruction is decoded when SYNC is pulled high. However, if the SYNC line is kept low for less than 16 falling edges of SCLK, the input shift register content is ignored, and the write sequence is considered invalid. SDO Pin The serial data output pin (SDO) serves two purposes: to read back the contents of the control, EEPROM, RDAC, and input registers using Command 3 (see Table 14 and Table 20), and to connect the AD5124/AD5144 in daisy-chain mode. The SDO pin contains an internal open-drain output that needs an external pull-up resistor. The SDO pin is enabled when SYNC is pulled low, and the data is clocked out of SDO on the rising edge of SCLK, as shown in Figure 6 and Figure 7. For the AD5124/AD5144/AD5144A, the input shift register is 16 bits wide, as shown in Figure 4. The 16-bit word consists of four control bits, followed by four address bits and by eight data bits. If the AD5124 RDAC or EEPROM registers are read from or written to, the lowest data bit (Bit 0) is ignored. Data is loaded MSB first (Bit 15). The four control bits determine the function of the software command, as listed in Table 14 and Table 20. Rev. A | Page 23 of 36 AD5124/AD5144/AD5144A Data Sheet Daisy-Chain Connection To prevent data from mislocking (for example, due to noise) the part includes an internal counter, if the SCLK falling edges count is not a multiple of 8, the part ignores the command. A valid clock count is 16, 24, 32, 40, and so on. The counter resets when SYNC returns high. Daisy chaining minimizes the number of port pins required from the controlling IC. As shown in Figure 43, the SDO pin of one package must be tied to the SDI pin of the next package. The clock period may need to be increased because of the propagation delay of the line between subsequent devices. When two AD5124/ AD5144 devices are daisy chained, 32 bits of data are required. The first 16 bits are assigned to U2, and the second 16 bits are assigned to U1, as shown in Figure 44. Keep the SYNC pin low until all 32 bits are clocked into their respective serial registers. The SYNC pin is then pulled high to complete the operation.

These devices can be connected to an I2C bus as a slave device, under the control of a master device. See Figure 5 for a timing diagram of a typical write sequence. The AD5144/AD5144A each have two different device address options available (see Table 12 and Table 13). Table 12. 20-Lead TSSOP Device Address Selection The AD5144/AD5144A support standard (100 kHz) and fast (400 kHz) data transfer modes. Support is not provided for 10-bit addressing and general call addressing. The 2-wire serial bus protocol operates as follows: 1. 2. 3. ADDR VLOGIC No connect1 GND 1 The master initiates a data transfer by establishing a start condition, which is when a high-to-low transition on the SDA line occurs while SCL is high. The following byte is the address byte, which consists of the 7-bit slave address and an R/W bit. The slave device corresponding to the transmitted address responds by pulling SDA low during the ninth clock pulse (this is called the acknowledge bit). At this stage, all other devices on the bus remain idle while the selected device waits for data to be written to, or read from, its shift register. If the R/W bit is set high, the master reads from the slave device. However, if the R/W bit is set low, the master writes to the slave device. Data is transmitted over the serial bus in sequences of nine clock pulses (eight data bits followed by an acknowledge bit). The transitions on the SDA line must occur during the low period of SCL and remain stable during the high period of SCL. When all data bits have been read from or written to, a stop condition is established. In write mode, the master pulls the SDA line high during the tenth clock pulse to establish a stop condition. In read mode, the master issues a no acknowledge for the ninth clock pulse (that is, the SDA line remains high). The master then brings the SDA line low before the tenth clock pulse, and then high again during the tenth clock pulse to establish a stop condition. 7-Bit I2C Device Address 0101000 0101010 0101011 Not available in bipolar mode (VSS < 0 V) or in low voltage mode (VLOGIC = 1.8 V).

The AD5124/AD5144/AD5144A include two commands to reduce the wiper resistance between the terminals when the devices achieve full scale or zero scale. These extra positions are called bottom scale, BS, and top scale, TS. The resistance between Terminal A and Terminal W at top scale is specified as RTS. Similarly, the bottom scale resistance between Terminal B and Terminal W is specified as RBS. Key programming features include the following: • • • • • • • • Input register Linear gain setting mode Low wiper resistance feature Linear increment and decrement instructions ±6 dB increment and decrement instructions Burst mode (I2C only) Reset Shutdown mode The contents of the RDAC registers are unchanged by entering into these positions. There are three ways to exit from top scale and bottom scale: by using Command 12 or Command 13 (see Table 20); by loading new data in an RDAC register, which includes increment/decrement operations; or by entering shutdown mode, Command 15 (see Table 20). Input Register Table 16 and Table 17 show the truth tables for the top scale position and the bottom scale position, respectively, when the potentiometer or linear gain setting mode is enabled. The AD5124/AD5144/AD5144A include one input register per RDAC register. These registers allow preloading of the value for the associated RDAC register. These registers can be written to using Command 2 and read back from using Command 3 (see Table 20). Linear Gain Setting Mode RAW RWB RAB RAB This feature allows a synchronous and asynchronous update of one or all of the RDAC registers at the same time. Table 17. Bottom Scale Truth Table The transfer from the input register to the RDAC register is done asynchronously by the LRDAC pin or synchronously by Command 8 (see Table 20). If new data is loaded into an RDAC register, this RDAC register automatically overwrites the associated input register. Linear Gain Setting Mode The patented architecture of the AD5124/AD5144/AD5144A allows the independent control of each string resistor, RAW, and RWB. To enable this feature, use Command 16 (see Table 20) to set Bit D2 of the control register (see Table 22). This mode of operation can control the potentiometer as two independent rheostats connected at a single point, the W terminal. This feature enables a second input and an RDAC register per channel, as shown in Table 21, but the actual RDAC contents remain unchanged. The same operations are valid for potentiometer and linear gain setting modes. The EEPROM commands affect the RWB resistance only. The parts restores in potentiometer mode after a reset or power-up. Table 16. Top Scale Truth Table Linear Gain Setting Mode RAW RWB RTS RBS RAW RTS RAW RAB Potentiometer Mode RWB RAB Potentiometer Mode RWB RBS Linear Increment and Decrement Instructions The increment and decrement commands (Command 4 and Command 5 in Table 20) are useful for linear step adjustment applications. These commands simplify microcontroller software coding by allowing the controller to send an increment or decrement command to the device. The adjustment can be individual or in a ganged potentiometer arrangement, where all wiper positions are changed at the same time. For an increment command, executing Command 4 automatically moves the wiper to the next RDAC position. This command can be executed in a single channel or multiple channels. Rev. A | Page 27 of 36 AD5124/AD5144/AD5144A Data Sheet ±6 dB Increment and Decrement Instructions Shutdown Mode Two programming instructions produce logarithmic taper increment or decrement of the wiper position control by an individual potentiometer or by a ganged potentiometer arrangement where all RDAC register positions are changed simultaneously. The +6 dB increment is activated by Command 6, and the −6 dB decrement is activated by Command 7 (see Table 20). For example, starting with the zero-scale position and executing Command 6 ten times moves the wiper in 6 dB steps to the fullscale position. When the wiper position is near the maximum setting, the last 6 dB increment instruction causes the wiper to go to the full-scale position (see Table 18). The AD5124/AD5144/AD5144A can be placed in shutdown mode by executing the software shutdown command, Command 15 (see Table 20), and setting the LSB (D0) to 1. This feature places the RDAC in a zero power consumption state where the device operates in potentiometer mode, Terminal A is open circuited, and the wiper, Terminal W, is connected to Terminal B; however, a finite wiper resistance of 40 Ω is present. When the device is configured in linear gain setting mode, the resistor addressed, RAW or RWB, is internally place at high impedance. Table 19 shows a truth table depending on the device operating mode. The contents of the RDAC register are unchanged by entering shutdown mode. However, all commands listed in Table 20 are supported while in shutdown mode. Execute Command 15 (see Table 20) and set the LSB (D0) to 0 to exit shutdown mode. Incrementing the wiper position by +6 dB essentially doubles the RDAC register value, whereas decrementing the wiper position by −6 dB halves the register value. Internally, the AD5124/ AD5144/AD5144A use shift registers to shift the bits left and right to achieve a ±6 dB increment or decrement. These functions are useful for various audio/video level adjustments, especially for white LED brightness settings in which human visual responses are more sensitive to large adjustments than to small adjustments.

Shutdown Mode Truth Table Linear Gain Setting Mode RAW RWB High impedance High impedance Potentiometer Mode RAW RWB High impedance RBS EEPROM OR RDAC REGISTER PROTECTION The EEPROM and RDAC registers can be protected by disabling any update to these registers. This can be done by using software or by using hardware. If these registers are protected by software, set Bit D0 and/or Bit D1 (see Table 22), which protects the RDAC and EEPROM registers independently. If the registers are protected by hardware, pull the WP pin low (only available in the LFCSP package). If the WP pin is pulled low when the part is executing a command, the protection is not enabled until the command is completed (only available in the LFCSP package). When RDAC is protected, the only operation allowed is to copy the EEPROM into the RDAC register. Burst Mode (I2C Only) By enabling the burst mode, multiple data bytes can be sent to the part consecutively. After the command byte, the part interprets the following consecutive bytes as data bytes for the command. A new command can be sent by generating a repeat start or by a stop and start condition. The burst mode is activated by setting Bit D3 of the control register (see Table 22). LOAD RDAC INPUT REGISTER (LRDAC) LRDAC software or hardware transfers data from the input register to the RDAC register (and therefore updates the wiper position). By default, the input register has the same value as the RDAC register; therefore, only the input register that has been updated using Command 2 is updated. Software LRDAC, Command 8, allows updating of a single RDAC register or all of the channels at once (see Table 20). This is a synchronous update. Reset The AD5124/AD5144/AD5144A can be reset through software by executing Command 14 (see Table 20) or through hardware on the low pulse of the RESET pin. The reset command loads the RDAC register with the contents of the EEPROM and takes approximately 30 µs. The EEPROM is preloaded to midscale at the factory, and initial power-up is, accordingly, at midscale. Tie RESET to VDD if the RESET pin is not used. The hardware LRDAC is completely asynchronous and copies the content of all the input registers into the associated RDAC registers. If a command is being executed, any transition in the LRDAC pin is ignored by the part to avoid data corruption. Rev. A | Page 28 of 36 Data Sheet AD5124/AD5144/AD5144A Table 20.

In particular, the AD5124/AD5144 employ a three-stage segmentation approach, as shown in Figure 45. The AD5124/AD5144/AD5144A wiper switch is designed with the transmission gate CMOS topology and with the gate voltage derived from VDD and VSS. Rheostat Operation—±8% Resistor Tolerance A A W STS B A W B W B RH 10877-049 A The AD5124/AD5144/AD5144A operate in rheostat mode when only two terminals are used as a variable resistor. The unused terminal can be floating, or it can be tied to Terminal W, as shown in Figure 46. Figure 46. Rheostat Mode Configuration RH The nominal resistance between Terminal A and Terminal B, RAB, is 10 kΩ or 100 kΩ, and has 128/256 tap points accessed by the wiper terminal. The 7-bit/8-bit data in the RDAC latch is decoded to select one of the 128/256 possible wiper settings.

AD5124/AD5144/AD5144A Simplified RDAC Circuit Top Scale/Bottom Scale Architecture In addition, the AD5124/AD5144/AD5144A include new positions to reduce the resistance between terminals. These positions are called bottom scale and top scale. At bottom scale, the typical wiper resistance decreases from 130 Ω to 60 Ω (RAB = 100 kΩ). At top scale, the resistance between Terminal A and Terminal W is decreased by 1 LSB, and the total resistance is reduced to 60 Ω (RAB = 100 kΩ). D R AB RW 256 where: D is the decimal equivalent of the binary code in the 7-bit/8-bit RDAC register. RAB is the end-to-end resistance. RW is the wiper resistance. In potentiometer mode, similar to the mechanical potentiometer, the resistance between Terminal W and Terminal A also produces a digitally controlled complementary resistance, RWA. RWA also gives a maximum of 8% absolute resistance error. RWA starts at the maximum resistance value and decreases as the data loaded into the latch increases. The general equations for this operation are AD5124: RAW (D ) 128 D RAB RW 128 From 0x00 to 0x7F (3) AD5144/AD5144A: RAW (D ) 256 D RAB RW 256 From 0x00 to 0xFF (4) where: D is the decimal equivalent of the binary code in the 7-bit/8-bit RDAC register. RAB is the end-to-end resistance. RW is the wiper resistance. Rev. A | Page 31 of 36 AD5124/AD5144/AD5144A Data Sheet If the part is configured in linear gain setting mode, the resistance between Terminal W and Terminal A is directly proportional to the code loaded in the associate RDAC register.

These diodes also set the voltage boundary of the terminal operating voltages. Positive signals present on Terminal A, Terminal B, or Terminal W that exceed VDD are clamped by the forward-biased diode. There is no polarity constraint between VA, VW, and VB, but they cannot be higher than VDD or lower than VSS.

Regardless of which setting the part is operating in, limit the current between Terminal A to Terminal B, Terminal W to Terminal A, and Terminal W to Terminal B to the maximum continuous current of ±6 mA or to the pulse current specified in Table 7. Otherwise, degradation or possible destruction of the internal switch contact can occur. PROGRAMMING THE POTENTIOMETER DIVIDER Voltage Output Operation The digital potentiometer easily generates a voltage divider at wiper-to-B and wiper-to-A that is proportional to the input voltage at A to B, as shown in Figure 47. Figure 48. Maximum Terminal Voltages Set by VDD and VSS POWER-UP SEQUENCE Because there are diodes to limit the voltage compliance at Terminal A, Terminal B, and Terminal W (see Figure 48), it is important to power up VDD first before applying any voltage to Terminal A, Terminal B, and Terminal W. Otherwise, the diode is forward-biased such that VDD is powered unintentionally. The ideal power-up sequence is VSS, VDD, VLOGIC, digital inputs, and VA, VB, and VW. The order of powering VA, VB, VW, and digital inputs is not important as long as they are powered after VSS, VDD, and VLOGIC. Regardless of the power-up sequence and the ramp rates of the power supplies, once VDD is powered, the power-on preset activates, which restores EEPROM values to the RDAC registers. LAYOUT AND POWER SUPPLY BIASING VOUT B Figure 47. Potentiometer Mode Configuration Connecting Terminal A to 5 V and Terminal B to ground produces an output voltage at the Wiper W to Terminal B ranging from 0 V to 5 V. The general equation defining the output voltage at VW with respect to ground for any valid input voltage applied to Terminal A and Terminal B is VW (D) VSS R (D) RWB (D) VA AW VB RAB RAB (7) It is always a good practice to use a compact, minimum lead length layout design. Ensure that the leads to the input are as direct as possible with a minimum conductor length. Ground paths should have low resistance and low inductance. It is also good practice to bypass the power supplies with quality capacitors. Apply low equivalent series resistance (ESR) 1 μF to 10 μF tantalum or electrolytic capacitors at the supplies to minimize any transient disturbance and to filter low frequency ripple. Figure 49 illustrates the basic supply bypassing configuration for the AD5124/AD5144/AD5144A. VDD where: RWB(D) can be obtained from Equation 1 and Equation 2. RAW(D) can be obtained from Equation 3 and Equation 4. Operation of the digital potentiometer in the divider mode results in a more accurate operation over temperature. Unlike the rheostat mode, the output voltage is dependent mainly on the ratio of the internal resistors, RAW and RWB, and not the absolute values. Therefore, the temperature drift reduces to 5 ppm/°C. VSS Rev.
