VDD = 2.7V to 5.5V,
VA = 2.7V, Code = 3Fh
Resistance is defined as the resistance between terminal A to terminal B.
INL and DNL are measured at VW with VA = VDD and VB = VSS.
MCP40D18 device only, includes VWZSE and VWFSE.
Resistor terminals A, W and B’s polarity with respect to each other is not restricted.
This specification by design.
Non-linearity is affected by wiper resistance (RW), which changes significantly over voltage and
temperature.
POR/BOR is not rate dependent.
Supply current is independent of current through the resistor network

(SDA and SCL)
As a transmitter, the device must provide this internal minimum delay time to bridge the undefined region
(min. 300 ns) of the falling edge of SCL to avoid unintended generation of START or STOP conditions.
A fast-mode (400 kHz) I2C-bus device can be used in a standard-mode (100 kHz) I2C-bus system, but the
requirement tsu; DAT ≥ 250 ns must then be met. This will automatically be the case if the device does not
stretch the LOW period of the SCL signal. If such a device does stretch the LOW period of the SCL signal,
it must output the next data bit to the SDA line
TR max.+tsu;DAT = 1000 + 250 = 1250 ns (according to the standard-mode I2C bus specification) before
the SCL line is released.
The MCP40D18/MCP40D19 device must provide a data hold time to bridge the undefined part between
VIH and VIL of the falling edge of the SCL signal. This specification is not a part of the I2C specification, but
must be tested in order to guarantee that the output data will meet the setup and hold specifications for the
receiving device.
Use Cb in pF for the calculations.
Not Tested.
A Master Transmitter must provide a delay to ensure that difference between SDA and SCL fall times do
not unintentionally create a Start or Stop condition.

3.1
Positive Power Supply Input (VDD)
The VDD pin is the device’s positive power supply input.
The input power supply is relative to VSS and can range
from 1.8V to 5.5V. A de-coupling capacitor on VDD
(to VSS) is recommended to achieve maximum
performance.
While the device’s voltage is in the range of
1.8V ≤ VDD < 2.7V, the Resistor Network’s electrical
performance of the device may not meet the data sheet
specifications.
3.2
Ground (VSS)
The VSS pin is the device ground reference.
3.3
I2C Serial Clock (SCL)
The SCL pin is the serial clock pin of the I2C interface.
The MCP40D17/18/19 acts only as a slave and the
SCL pin accepts only external serial clocks. The SCL
pin is an open-drain output. Refer to Section 5.0
“Serial Interface - I2C Module” for more details of I2C
Serial Interface communication.
3.4
I2C
Serial Data (SDA)
The SDA pin is the serial data pin of the I2C interface.
The SDA pin has a Schmitt trigger input and an
open-drain output. Refer to Section 5.0 “Serial
Interface - I2C Module” for more details of I2C Serial
Interface communication.
3.5
3.6
Potentiometer Wiper (W) Terminal
The terminal W pin is connected to the internal
potentiometer’s terminal W (the wiper). The wiper
terminal is the adjustable terminal of the digital
potentiometer. The terminal W pin does not have a
polarity relative to terminals A or B pins. The terminal
W pin can support both positive and negative current.
The voltage on terminal W must be between VSS and
VDD.
3.7
Potentiometer Terminal A
The terminal A pin (available on some devices) is
connected to the internal potentiometer’s terminal A.
The potentiometer’s terminal A is the fixed connection
to the Full Scale (0x7F tap) wiper value of the digital
potentiometer.
The terminal A pin is available on the MCP40D18
devices. The terminal A pin does not have a polarity
relative to the terminal W pin. The terminal A pin can
support both positive and negative current. The voltage
on terminal A must be between VSS and VDD.
The terminal A pin is not available on the MCP40D17
and MCP40D19 devices. For these devices, the
potentiometer’s terminal A is internally floating.
Potentiometer Terminal B
The terminal B pin (available on some devices) is
connected to the internal potentiometer’s terminal B.
The potentiometer’s terminal B is the fixed connection
to the Zero Scale (0x00 tap) wiper value of the digital
potentiometer.
The terminal B pin is available on the MCP40D17
device. The terminal B pin does not have a polarity
relative to the terminal W pin. The terminal B pin can
support both positive and negative current. The voltage
on terminal B must be between VSS and VDD.
The terminal B pin is not available on the MCP40D18
and MCP40D19 devices. For these devices, the
potentiometer’s terminal B is internally connected to
VSS.

GENERAL OVERVIEW
The MCP40D17/18/19 devices are general purpose
digital potentiometers intended to be used in
applications where a programmable resistance with
moderate bandwidth is desired.
This Data Sheet covers a family of three Digital
Potentiometer and Rheostat devices. The MCP40D18
device is the Potentiometer configuration, while the
MCP40D17 and MCP40D19 devices are the Rheostat
configuration.
Applications generally suited for the MCP40D17/18/19
devices include:
•
•
•
•
•
Computer Servers
Set point or offset trimming
Sensor calibration
Selectable gain and offset amplifier designs
Cost-sensitive mechanical trim pot replacement
4.1.1
POWER-ON RESET
When the device powers up, the device VDD will cross
the VPOR/VBOR voltage. Once the VDD voltage crosses
the VPOR/VBOR voltage, the following happens:
• Volatile wiper register is loaded with the default
wiper value (3Fh)
• The device is capable of digital operation
4.1.2
BROWN-OUT RESET
When the device powers down, the device VDD will
cross the VPOR/VBOR voltage. Once the VDD voltage
decreases below the VPOR/VBOR voltage the following
happens:
• Serial Interface is disabled
If the VDD voltage decreases below the VRAM voltage
the following happens:
• Volatile wiper registers may become corrupted
As the Device Block Diagram shows, there are four
main functional blocks. These are:
As the voltage recovers above the VPOR/VBOR voltage
see Section 4.1.1 “Power-on Reset”.
• POR/BOR Operation
• Serial Interface - I2C Module
• Resistor Network
Serial commands not completed due to a Brown-out
condition may cause the memory location to become
corrupted.
The POR/BOR operation and the Memory Map are
discussed in this section and the I2C and Resistor
Network operation are described in their own sections.
The Serial Commands commands are discussed in
Section 5.4.
4.1.3
4.1
POR/BOR Operation
The Power-on Reset is the case where the device is
having power applied to it from VSS. The Brown-out
Reset occurs when a device had power applied to it,
and that power (voltage) drops below the specified
range.
The devices RAM retention voltage (VRAM) is lower
than the POR/BOR voltage trip point (VPOR/VBOR). The
maximum VPOR/VBOR voltage is less than 1.8V.
WIPER REGISTER (RAM)
The Wiper Register is volatile memory that starts
functioning at the RAM retention voltage (VRAM). The
Wiper Register will be loaded with the default wiper
value when VDD will rise above the VPOR/VBOR voltage.
4.1.4
DEVICE CURRENTS
The current of the device can be classified into two
modes of the device operation. These are:
• Serial Interface Inactive (Static Operation)
• Serial Interface Active
Static Operation occurs when a Stop condition is
received. Static Operation is exited when a Start
condition is received.
When VPOR/VBOR < VDD < 2.7V, the Resistor Network’s
electrical performance may not meet the data sheet
specifications. In this region, the device is capable of
reading and writing to its volatile memory if the proper
serial command is executed.
Table 4-1 shows the digital pot’s level of functionality
across the entire VDD range, while Figure 4-1 illustrates
the Power-up and Brown-out functionality.

SERIAL INTERFACE I2C MODULE
5.1
A 2-wire I2C serial protocol is used to write or read the
digital potentiometer’s wiper register. The I2C protocol
utilizes the SCL input pin and SDA input/output pin.
The I2C serial interface supports the following features:
• Slave mode of operation
• 7-bit addressing
• The following clock rate modes are supported:
- Standard mode, bit rates up to 100 kb/s
- Fast mode, bit rates up to 400 kb/s
• Support Multi-Master Applications
The serial clock is generated by the Master.
The I2C Module is compatible with the Phillips I2C
specification. Philips only defines the field types, field
lengths, timings, etc. of a frame. The frame content
defines the behavior of the device. The frame content
for the MCP40D17, MCP40D18, and MCP40D19
devices are defined in this section of the data sheet.
Figure 5-1 shows a typical I2C bus configurations.
Single I2C Bus Configuration
Device 1
Device n
Host
Controller
Device 2
FIGURE 5-1:
Configurations.
I2C specifications require active low, passive high
functionality on devices interfacing to the bus. Since
devices may be operating on separate power supply
sources, ESD clamping diodes are not permitted. The
specification recommends using open drain transistors
tied to VSS (common) with a pull-up resistor. The
specification makes some general recommendations
on the size of this pull-up, but does not specify the
exact value since bus speeds and bus capacitance
impacts the pull-up value for optimum system
performance.
Common pull-up values range from 1 kΩ to a maximum
of ~10 kΩ. Power sensitive applications tend to choose
higher values to minimize current losses during
communication but these applications also typically
utilize lower VDD.
The SDA and SCL float (are not driving) when the
device is powered down.
A "glitch" filter is on the SCL and SDA pins when the pin
is an input. When these pins are an output, there is a
slew rate control of the pin that is independent of device
frequency.

I2C I/O Considerations
SLOPE CONTROL
The device implements slope control on the SDA
output. The slope control is defined by the fast mode
specifications.
For Fast (FS) mode, the device has spike suppression
and Schmidt trigger inputs on the SDA and SCL pins.

I2C Bit Definitions
If the Slave Address is not valid, the Slave Device will
issue a Not A (A). The A bit will have the SDA signal
high.

If an error condition occurs (such as an A instead of A)
then a START bit must be issued to reset the command

The Repeated Start bit (see Figure 5-5) indicates
the current Master Device wishes to continue
communicating with the current Slave Device without
releasing the I2C bus. The Repeated Start condition is
the same as the Start condition, except that the
Repeated Start bit follows a Start bit (with the Data bits
+ A bit) and not a Stop bit.
• SDA is sampled low when SCL goes
from low to high.
• SCL goes low before SDA is
asserted low. This may indicate that
another master is attempting to
transmit a data "1".
The A bit (see Figure 5-4) is a response from the Slave
device to the Master device. Depending on the context
of the transfer sequence, the A bit may indicate
different things. Typically the Slave device will supply
an A response after the Start bit and 8 “data” bits have
been received. The A bit will have the SDA signal low.

STOP BIT
5.2.7
If any part of the I2C transmission does not meet the
command format, it is aborted. This can be intentionally
accomplished with a START or STOP condition. This is
done so that noisy transmissions (usually an extra
START or STOP condition) are aborted before they
corrupt the device.
The Stop bit (see Figure 5-6) Indicates the end of the
I2C Data Transfer Sequence. The Stop bit is defined as
the SDA signal rising when the SCL signal is “High”.
A Stop bit resets the I2C interface of the other devices.

IGNORING AN I2C TRANSMISSION
AND “FALLING OFF” THE BUS
The MCP40D17/18/19 expects to receive entire, valid
I2C commands and will assume any command not
defined as a valid command is due to a bus corruption
and will enter a passive high condition on the SDA
signal. All signals will be ignored until the next valid
START condition and CONTROL BYTE are received.

Software Reset Sequence
Note:
This technique should be supported by
any I2C compliant device. The 24XXXX
I2C Serial EEPROM devices support this
technique, which is documented in
AN1028.
The Stop bit terminates the current I2C bus activity.
The MCP40D17/18/19 wait to detect the next Start
condition.
This sequence does not effect any other I2C devices
which may be on the bus, as they should disregard this
as an invalid command.
At times it may become necessary to perform a
Software Reset Sequence to ensure the MCP40D17/
18/19 device is in a correct and known I2C Interface
state. This only resets the I2C state machine.
5.4
This is useful if the MCP40D17/18/19 device powers up
in an incorrect state (due to excessive bus noise, etc),
or if the Master Device is reset during communication.
Figure 5-11 shows the communication sequence to
software reset the device.

Serial Commands
The MCP40D17/18/19 devices support 2 serial
commands. These commands are:
The I2C command formats have been defined so to
support the SMBus version 2.0 Write Byte/Word
Protocol formats and Read Byte/Word Protocol
formats. The SMBus specification defines this
operation is Section 5 of the Version 2.0 document
(August 3, 2000).
This protocol format may be convienient for customers
using library routines for the I2C bus, where all they
need to do is specify the command (read, write, ...) with
the Device Address, the Register Address, and the
Data.
If higher data throughput is desired, please look at the
MCP4017/18/19 devices which have a simplier I2C
command format.
The 1st Start bit will cause the device to reset from a
state in which it is expecting to receive data from the
Master Device. In this mode, the device is monitoring
the data bus in Receive mode and can detect the Start
bit forces an internal Reset.
The nine bits of ‘1’ are used to force a Reset of those
devices that could not be reset by the previous Start bit.
This occurs only if the MCP40D17/18/19 is driving an A
on the I2C bus, or is in output mode (from a Read
command) and is driving a data bit of ‘0’ onto the I2C
bus. In both of these cases, the previous Start bit could
not be generated due to the MCP40D17/18/19 holding
the bus low. By sending out nine ‘1’ bits, it is ensured
that the device will see a A (the Master Device does not
drive the I2C bus low to acknowledge the data sent by
the MCP40D17/18/19), which also forces the
MCP40D17/18/19 to reset.
The 2nd Start bit is sent to address the rare possibility
of an erroneous write. This could occur if the Master
Device was reset while sending a Write command to
the MCP40D17/18/19, AND then as the Master Device
returns to normal operation and issues a Start condition
while the MCP40D17/18/19 is issuing an A. In this case
if the 2nd Start bit is not sent (and the Stop bit was sent)
the MCP40D17/18/19 could initiate a write cycle.
Note:
The potential for this erroneous write
ONLY occurs if the Master Device is reset
while sending a Write command to the
MCP40D17/18/19.

WRITE OPERATION
5.4.2
The read operation requires the START condition,
Control Byte, Acknowledge, Command Code,
Acknowledge, Restart Condition, Control Byte,
Acknowledge, Data Byte, the master generating the
A and STOP (or RESTART) condition. The first Control
Byte requires the R/W bit equal to a logic zero (R/W =
“0”) to write the Command Code, while the second
Control Byte requires the R/W bit equal to a logic one
(R/W = “1”) to generate a read sequence. The
MCP40D17/18/19 will A the Slave Address Byte and A
all the Data Bytes. The I2C Master will A the Slave
Address Byte and the last Data Byte. If there are
multiple Data Bytes, the I2C Master will A all Data Bytes
except the last Data Byte (which it will A).
The write operation requires the START condition,
Control Byte, Acknowledge, Command Code,
Acknowledge, Data Byte, Acknowledge and STOP (or
RESTART) condition. The Control (Slave Address)
Byte requires the R/W bit equal to a logic zero (R/W =
“0”) to generate a write sequence. The MCP40D17/
18/19 is responsible for generating the Acknowledge
(A) bits.
Data is written to the MCP40D17/18/19 after every byte
transfer (during the A bit). If a STOP or RESTART
condition is generated during a data transfer (before
the A bit), the data will not be written to MCP40D17/18/
19.
Data bytes may be written after each Acknowledge.
The command is terminated once a Stop (P) condition
occurs. Refer to Figure 5-12 for the single byte write
sequence and Figure 5-13 for the generic (multi-byte)
write sequence. For a single byte write, the master
sends a STOP or RESTART condition after the 1st data
byte is sent.
The MCP40D17/18/19 maintains control of the SDA
signal until all data bits have been clocked out.
The command is terminated once a Stop (P) or Restart
(S) condition occurs. Refer to Figure 5-15 for the read
command sequence. For a single read, the master
sends a STOP or RESTART condition after the 1st data
byte (and A bit) is sent from the slave.
The MSb of each Data Byte is a don’t care, since the
wiper register is only 7-bits wide.
Figure 5-16 shows the I2C read communication
behavior of the Master Device and the MCP40D17/18/
19 device and the resultant I2C bus values.
The command is terminated once a Stop (P) or Restart
(S) condition occurs.

The MCP40D17 is a true rheostat, with terminal B and
the wiper (W) of the variable resistor available on pins.
The MCP40D18 device offers a voltage divider
(potentiometer) with terminal B internally connected to
ground.
The MCP40D19 device is a Rheostat device with
terminal A of the resistor floating, terminal B internally
connected to ground, and the wiper (W) available on
pin.
6.1
Resistor Ladder Module
The resistor ladder is a series of equal value resistors
(RS) with a connection point (tap) between the two
resistors. The total number of resistors in the
series (ladder) determines the RAB resistance
(see Figure 6-1). The end points of the resistor ladder
are connected to the device Terminal A and Terminal B
pins. The RAB (and RS) resistance has small variations
over voltage and temperature.
The Resistor Network has 127 resistors in a string
between terminal A and terminal B. This gives 7-bits of
resolution.
The wiper can be set to tap onto any of these 127
resistors thus providing 128 possible settings
(including terminal A and terminal B). This allows zero
scale to full scale connections.

Resistor Configurations
6.2.1
6.2.2
RHEOSTAT CONFIGURATION
When used as a rheostat, two of the three digital
potentiometer’s terminals are used as a resistive
element in the circuit. With terminal W (wiper) and
either terminal A or terminal B, a variable resistor is
created. The resistance will depend on the tap setting
of the wiper (and the wiper’s resistance). The
resistance is controlled by changing the wiper setting
The unused terminal (B or A) should be left floating.
Figure 6-2 shows the two possible resistors that can be
used. Reversing the polarity of the A and B terminals
will not affect operation.
POTENTIOMETER
CONFIGURATION
When used as a potentiometer, all three terminals of
the device are tied to different nodes in the circuit. This
allows the potentiometer to output a voltage
proportional to the input voltage. This configuration is
sometimes called voltage divider mode. The
potentiometer is used to provide a variable voltage by
adjusting the wiper position between the two endpoints
as shown in Figure 6-3. Reversing the polarity of the A
and B terminals will not affect operation.

FIGURE 6-2:
Rheostat Configuration.
This allows the control of the total resistance between
the two nodes. The total resistance depends on the
“starting” terminal to the Wiper terminal. So at the code
00h, the RBW resistance is minimal (RW), but the RAW
resistance in maximized (RAB + RW). Conversely, at the
code 3Fh, the RAW resistance is minimal (RW), but the
RBW resistance in maximized (RAB + RW).
The resistance Step size (RS) equates to one LSb of
the resistor.
Note:
To avoid damage to the internal wiper
circuitry in this configuration, care should
be taken to insure the current flow never
exceeds 2.5 mA.
V2
FIGURE 6-3:
Configuration.
Potentiometer
The temperature coefficient of the RAB resistors is
minimal by design. In this configuration, the resistors all
change uniformly, so minimal variation should be seen.
The Wiper resistor temperature coefficient is different
to the RAB temperature coefficient. The voltage at node
V3 (Figure 6-3) is not dependent on this Wiper
resistance, just the ratio of the RAB resistors, so this
temperature coefficient in most cases can be ignored.
Note:
To avoid damage to the internal wiper
circuitry in this configuration, care should
be taken to insure the current flow never
exceeds 2.5 mA.
The pinout for the rheostat devices is such that as the
wiper register is incremented, the resistance of the
resistor will increase (as measured from Terminal B to
the W Terminal).

MCP40D17/18/19
6.3
Wiper Resistance
In a potentiometer configuration, the wiper resistance
variation does not effect the output voltage seen on the
W pin.
Wiper resistance is the series resistance of the analog
switch that connects the selected resistor ladder node
to the Wiper Terminal common signal (see Figure 6-1).
The slope of the resistance has a linear area (at the
higher voltages) and a non-linear area (at the lower
voltages). In where resistance increases faster than the
voltage drop (at low voltages).
A value in the volatile wiper register selects which
analog switch to close, connecting the W terminal to
the selected node of the resistor ladder.
The resistance is dependent on the voltages on the
analog switch source, gate, and drain nodes, as well as
the device’s wiper code, temperature, and the current
through the switch. As the device voltage decreases,
the wiper resistance increases (see Figure 6-4 and
Table 6-4).
RW
The wiper can connect directly to Terminal B or to
Terminal A. A zero scale connections, connects the
Terminal W (wiper) to Terminal B (wiper setting of
000h). A full scale connections, connects the
Terminal W (wiper) to Terminal A (wiper setting of 7Fh).
In these configurations the only resistance between the
Terminal W and the other Terminal (A or B) is thaΩt of
the analog switches.
VDD
Note:
The wiper resistance is typically measured when the
wiper is positioned at either zero scale (00h) or full
scale (3Fh).
The slope of the resistance has a linear
area (at the higher voltages) and a nonlinear area (at the lower voltages).
FIGURE 6-4:
Relationship of Wiper
Resistance (RW) to Voltage.
Since there is minimal variation of the total device
resistance over voltage, at a constant temperature (see
Figure 2-11, Figure 2-29, Figure 2-47, or Figure 2-65),
the change in wiper resistance over voltage can have a
significant impact on the INL and DNL error.
The wiper resistance in potentiometer-generated
voltage divider applications is not a significant source
of error.
The wiper resistance in rheostat applications can
create significant nonlinearity as the wiper is moved
toward zero scale (00h). The lower the nominal
resistance, the greater the possible error.
In a rheostat configuration, this change in voltage
needs to be taken into account. Particularly for the
lower resistance devices. For the 5.0 kΩ device the
maximum wiper resistance at 5.5V is approximately
3.2% of the total resistance, while at 2.7V it is
approximately 6.5% of the total resistance.

Ratiometric temperature coefficient
The ratiometric temperature coefficient quantifies the
error in the ratio RAW/RWB due to temperature drift.
This is typically the critical error when using a
potentiometer device (MCP40D18) in a voltage divider
configuration.
6.4.1.4
Absolute temperature coefficient
The absolute temperature coefficient quantifies the
error in the end-to-end resistance (Nominal resistance
RAB) due to temperature drift. This is typically the
critical error when using a rheostat device (MCP40D17
and MCP40D19) in an adjustable resistor
configuration.

MONOTONIC OPERATION
Monotonic operation means that the device’s
resistance increases with every step change (from
terminal A to terminal B or terminal B to terminal A).
The wiper resistances difference at each tap location.
When changing from one tap position to the next (either
increasing or decreasing), the ΔRW is less than the
ΔRS. When this change occurs, the device voltage and

DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS
In the design of a system with the MCP40D17/18/19
devices, the following considerations should be taken
into account. These are:
• The Power Supply
• The Layout
In the design of a system with the MCP40D17/18/19
devices, the following considerations should be taken
into account:
• Power Supply Considerations
• Layout Considerations
7.1
Power Supply Considerations
The typical application will require a bypass capacitor
in order to filter high-frequency noise, which can be
induced onto the power supply's traces. The bypass
capacitor helps to minimize the effect of these noise
sources on signal integrity. Figure 7-1 illustrates an
appropriate bypass strategy.
In this example, the recommended bypass capacitor
value is 0.1 µF. This capacitor should be placed as
close to the device power pin (VDD) as possible (within
4 mm).
7.2
Layout Considerations
Inductively-coupled AC transients and digital switching
noise can degrade the input and output signal integrity,
potentially
masking
the
MCP40D17/18/19’s
performance. Careful board layout will minimize these
effects and increase the Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR).
Bench testing has shown that a multi-layer board
utilizing a low-inductance ground plane, isolated inputs,
isolated outputs and proper decoupling are critical to
achieving the performance that the silicon is capable of
providing. Particularly harsh environments may require
shielding of critical signals.
If low noise is desired, breadboards and wire-wrapped
boards are not recommended.
7.2.1
RESISTOR TEMPCO
Characterization curves of the resistor temperature
coefficient (Tempco) are shown in Figure 2-11,
Figure 2-29, Figure 2-47, and Figure 2-65.
These curves show that the resistor network is
designed to correct for the change in resistance as
temperature increases. This technique reduces the
end to end change is RAB resistance.
The power source supplying these devices should be
as clean as possible. If the application circuit has
separate digital and analog power supplies, VDD and
VSS should reside on the analog plane.

APPLICATIONS EXAMPLES
VDD
Digital potentiometers have a multitude of practical
uses in modern electronic circuits. The most popular
uses include precision calibration of set point
thresholds, sensor trimming, LCD bias trimming, audio
attenuation, adjustable power supplies, motor control
overcurrent trip setting, adjustable gain amplifiers and
offset trimming. The MCP40D17/18/19 devices can be
used to replace the common mechanical trim pot in
applications where the operating and terminal voltages
are within CMOS process limitations (VDD = 2.7V to
5.5V).
8.1
Set Point Threshold Trimming
Applications that need accurate detection of an input
threshold event often need several sources of error
eliminated. Use of comparators and operational
amplifiers (op amps) with low offset and gain error can
help achieve the desired accuracy, but in many
applications, the input source variation is beyond the
designer’s control. If the entire system can be
calibrated after assembly in a controlled environment
(like factory test), these sources of error are minimized
if not entirely eliminated.
Figure 8-1 illustrates a common digital potentiometer
configuration. This configuration is often referred to as
a “windowed voltage divider”. Note that R1 is not
necessary to create the voltage divider, but its
presence is useful when the desired threshold has
limited range. It is “windowed” because R1 can narrow
the adjustable range of VTRIP to a value much less than
VDD – VSS. If the output range is reduced, the
magnitude of each output step is reduced. This
effectively increases the trimming resolution for a fixed
digital potentiometer resolution. This technique may
allow a lower-cost digital potentiometer to be utilized
(64 steps instead of 256 steps).
The MCP40D18’s low DNL performance is critical to
meeting calibration accuracy in production without
having to use a higher precision digital potentiometer.

TRIMMING A THRESHOLD FOR AN
OPTICAL SENSOR
If the application has to calibrate the threshold of a
diode, transistor or resistor, a variation range of 0.1V is
common. Often, the desired resolution of 2 mV or
better is adequate to accurately detect the presence of
a precise signal. A “windowed” voltage divider, utilizing
the MCP40D18, would be a potential solution.

Temperature Sensor Applications
Thermistors are resistors with very predictable
variation with temperature. Thermistors are a popular
sensor choice when a low-cost temperature-sensing
solution is desired. Unfortunately, thermistors have
non-linear characteristics that are undesirable, typically
requiring trimming in an application to achieve greater
accuracy. There are several common solutions to trim
and linearize thermistors. Figure 8-5 and Figure 8-6
are simple methods for linearizing a 3-terminal NTC
thermistor. Both are simple voltage dividers using a
Positive Temperature Coefficient (PTC) resistor (R1)
with a transfer function capable of compensating for the
linearity error in the Negative Temperature Coefficient
(NTC) thermistor.
The circuit, illustrated by Figure 8-5, utilizes a digital
rheostat for trimming the offset error caused by the
thermistor’s part-to-part variation. This solution puts the
digital potentiometer’s RW into the voltage divider
calculation. The MCP40D17/18/19’s RAB temperature
coefficient is a low 50 ppm (-20°C to +70°C). RW’s error
is substantially greater than RAB’s error because RW
varies with VDD, wiper setting and temperature. For the
50 kΩ devices, the error introduced by RW is, in most
cases, insignificant as long as the wiper setting is > 6.
For the 2 kΩ devices, the error introduced by RW is
significant because it is a higher percentage of RWB.
For these reasons, the circuit illustrated in Figure 8-5 is
not the most optimum method for “exciting” and
linearizing a thermistor.
The circuit illustrated by Figure 8-6 utilizes a digital
potentiometer for trimming the offset error. This
solution removes RW from the trimming equation along
with the error associated with RW. R2 is not required,
but can be utilized to reduce the trimming “window” and
reduce variation due to the digital pot’s RAB part-to-part
variability.

Wheatstone Bridge Trimming
Another common configuration to “excite” a sensor
(such as a strain gauge, pressure sensor or thermistor)
is the wheatstone bridge configuration. The
wheatstone bridge provides a differential output
instead of a single-ended output. Figure 8-7 illustrates
a wheatstone bridge utilizing one to three digital
potentiometers. The digital potentiometers in this
example are used to trim the offset and gain of the
wheatstone bridge.
