The AD5262BRUZ20-RL7 is a digital potentiometer IC (Integrated Circuit) developed by Analog Devices Inc. It is a versatile component that offers precise and programmable resistance control in a miniature package. This IC is primarily used in applications requiring digital control of resistance, such as audio volume control, programmable filters, and gain control.
One of the key features of the AD5262BRUZ20-RL7 is its dual-channel configuration. It consists of two independent digitally controlled potentiometers, allowing users to control two separate resistances simultaneously. This feature is advantageous in applications where independent control of two variables is required, such as dual-channel audio systems.
The IC offers a resistance range of 20 kΩ, providing a wide span of resistance control. Its 20-terminal small-outline integrated circuit (SOIC) package ensures a compact footprint, enabling space-efficient circuit design. The device also operates within a wide temperature range of -40°C to +125°C, making it suitable for various environmental conditions.
AD5262BRUZ20-RL7 is a digitally programmable IC, meaning its resistance can be adjusted using digital signals. This enables precise and easy adjustment of resistance values, eliminating the need for manual potentiometer adjustment. The IC also incorporates non-volatile memory, which allows it to retain programmed resistance settings even when the power is disconnected. This feature ensures that the device can resume operation with the same settings upon power restoration
