The AD5171BRJZ50-R2 is an integrated circuit (IC) component that belongs to the family of digital potentiometers. Produced by Analog Devices, it offers a range of features for various electronic applications. This overview will cover its key features and functionalities.
The AD5171BRJZ50-R2 is a single-channel, non-volatile digital potentiometer with a resistance range of 50 kilohms. It operates with a supply voltage ranging from 2.7 volts to 5.5 volts, making it compatible with a wide array of circuits and devices. The IC can be controlled through a serial peripheral interface (SPI) bus, enabling easy integration into digital systems.
One prominent feature of the AD5171BRJZ50-R2 is its non-volatile memory, which allows it to retain its settings even when the power is disconnected. This memory is especially useful for applications where it is essential to preserve the potentiometer's stored values, such as volume control or brightness adjustment in audio and visual systems, respectively.
The IC provides programmable resistive elements that can be adjusted in discrete steps. With 1024 taps available, it offers fine-grained control over the resistance value. This allows for precise adjustment of various parameters in analog circuits, such as setting gain or equalization.
The AD5171BRJZ50-R2 also features a low-resistance tolerance, ensuring high accuracy in the specified resistance values
