Data Sheet AD5124/AD5144/AD5144A THEORY OF OPERATION The AD5124/AD5144/AD5144A digital programmable SERIAL DATA DIGITAL INTERFACE SELECTION, DIS potentiometers are designed to operate as true variable resistors The AD5124/AD5144 LFSCP provides the flexibility of a selectable for analog signals within the terminal voltage range of V < V < SS TERM interface. When the digital interface select (DIS) pin is tied low, V . The resistor wiper position is determined by the RDAC DD the SPI mode is engaged. When the DIS pin is tied high, the I2C register contents. The RDAC register acts as a scratchpad register mode is engaged. that allows unlimited changes of resistance settings. A secondary SPI SERIAL DATA INTERFACE register (the input register) can be used to preload the RDAC register data. The AD5124/AD5144 contain a 4-wire, SPI-compatible digital The RDAC register can be programmed with any position setting interface (SDI, SYNC, SDO, and SCLK). The write sequence using the I2C or SPI interface (depending on the model). When begins by bringing the SYNC line low. The SYNC pin must be a desirable wiper position is found, this value can be stored in held low until the complete data-word is loaded from the SDI the EEPROM memory. Thereafter, the wiper position is always pin. Data is loaded in at the SCLK falling edge transition, as restored to that position for subsequent power-ups. The storing shown in Figure 6. When SYNC returns high, the serial data- of the EEPROM data takes approximately 15 ms; during this word is decoded according to the instructions in Table 20. time, the device is locked and does not acknowledge any new To minimize power consumption in the digital input buffers command, preventing any changes from taking place. when the part is enabled, operate all serial interface pins close RDAC REGISTER AND EEPROM to the V supply rails. LOGIC The RDAC register directly controls the position of the digital SYNC Interruption potentiometer wiper. For example, when the RDAC register is In a standalone write sequence for the AD5124/AD5144, loaded with 0x80 (AD5144/AD5144A, 256 taps), the wiper is the SYNC line is kept low for 16 falling edges of SCLK, and the connected to half scale of the variable resistor. The RDAC register instruction is decoded when SYNC is pulled high.

SDO Pin The contents of the RDAC register can be stored to the EEPROM The serial data output pin (SDO) serves two purposes: to read back using Command 9 (see Table 14). Thereafter, the RDAC register the contents of the control, EEPROM, RDAC, and input registers always sets at that position for any future on-off-on power using Command 3 (see Table 14 and Table 20), and to connect the supply sequence.

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).
