The AD5246BKSZ5-RL7 is an IC (integrated circuit) component manufactured by Analog Devices. It is a digital potentiometer that offers versatile features for various applications.
One of the key features of the AD5246BKSZ5-RL7 is its 256-tap, non-volatile, and I²C (Inter-Integrated Circuit) digital potentiometer. It provides resistance adjustment capabilities in a small form factor, making it suitable for space-constrained designs.
The IC component has an operating voltage range of 2.7V to 5.5V, allowing it to be powered from a variety of sources. It also has low power consumption, making it energy-efficient.
The AD5246BKSZ5-RL7 provides a digital interface through the I²C bus, enabling easy control and communication with the potentiometer. It offers 16 programmable resistance channels, allowing for multiple applications within a single device.
This component comes with a resistance tolerance of ±20% and a temperature coefficient of 35 ppm/°C, ensuring accurate and consistent performance across different environmental conditions.
The device contains a non-volatile memory that stores the wiper position settings, allowing it to retain its settings even when powered off. This feature is useful in applications where the resistance position needs to be maintained during power cycling
