The X9314 is a resistor array composed of 31 resistive
elements. Between each element and at either end are
tap points accessible to the wiper element. 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.
All Xicor nonvolatile Digitally Controlled Potentiometers
are designed and tested for applications requiring extended endurance and data retention.

PIN CONFIGURATION
VH and VL
8-LEAD DIP/SOIC
The high (VH) and low (VL) terminals of the X9314
are equivalent to the fixed terminals of a mechanical
potentiometer. The minimum voltage is –5V and the
maximum is +5V. It should be noted that the terminology
of VL and 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.

Vw is the wiper terminal, equivalent to the movable

of the wiper within the array is determined by the

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 X9314
will be placed in the low power standby mode until the
device is selected once again.

DEVICE OPERATION
Operation Notes
There are three sections of the X9314: 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 potential at that point to the wiper.
The system may select the X9314, move the wiper and
deselect the device without having to store the latest
wiper position in nonvolatile memory. The wiper
movement is performed as described above; once the
new position is reached, the system would keep the INC
LOW while taking CS HIGH. The new wiper position
would be maintained until changed by the system or
until a power-up/down cycle recalled the previously
stored data.
This would allow 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...
The INC, U/D and CS inputs control the movement of the
wiper along the resistor array. With CS set LOW the
X9314 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 five bit counter. The output of this counter
is decoded to select one of thirty-two wiper positions
along the resistive array.
The state of U/D may be changed while CS remains
LOW. This allows the host system to enable the X9314
and then move the wiper up and down until the proper
trim is attained.
TIW/RTOTAL
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 X9314 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.
The value of the counter is stored in nonvolatile memory
whenever CS transistions HIGH while the INC input is
also HIGH.
When the X9314 is powered-down, the last counter
position stored will be maintained in the nonvolatile
memory. When power is restored, the contents of the
memory are recalled and the counter is reset to the value
last stored.
RTOTAL with VCC Removed
The end to end resistance of the array will fluctuate once
VCC is removed.
