The AD5171BRJZ5-R7 is an IC (integrated circuit) component manufactured by Analog Devices. It is a single-channel, nonvolatile digital potentiometer designed for various applications such as analog volume control, voltage level adjustments, and other resistive control applications.
Key Features of the AD5171BRJZ5-R7 include:
1. Nonvolatile Memory: The IC has onboard EEPROM (electrically erasable programmable read-only memory) that allows it to retain its settings even when power is disconnected. This feature ensures that the desired resistance settings are not lost during power cycles.
2. Digital Control: The AD5171BRJZ5-R7 is digitally controlled, enabling precise and accurate resistance adjustments. It communicates with the microcontroller or host system through a 2-wire I2C-compatible serial interface, facilitating ease of integration into digital systems.
3. Wide Resistance Range: The IC provides a wide adjustable resistance range with a total of 256 resistive elements, allowing it to cover a broad spectrum of resistance values. The resistance can be adjusted in small increments using digital commands, offering fine-grained control.
4. Low Temperature Coefficient: The AD5171BRJZ5-R7 features a low temperature coefficient, meaning that the resistance value remains relatively stable even under varying temperature conditions. This ensures consistent performance and accuracy over a wide temperature range
