The DS1267E-10 is an IC component manufactured by Maxim Integrated. It is a dual digital potentiometer that offers versatile and precise digital control of resistance. The device is primarily designed for applications that require adjustable resistance settings, such as in audio systems, instrumentation, and industrial control.
One of the key features of the DS1267E-10 is its dual-channel configuration, which allows independent control of two potentiometers within a single package. Each channel has a 256-tap resistor array, providing a wide range of discrete resistance steps for precise adjustment. With a resistance range from 10 kΩ to 100 kΩ, the DS1267E-10 caters to a variety of resistance settings.
The component is controlled digitally through a simple three-wire SPI interface, making it easy to integrate into existing systems. A high-resolution 10-bit digital-to-analog converter (DAC) ensures accuracy in resistance adjustments, delivering a smooth and reliable user experience.
Furthermore, the DS1267E-10 offers nonvolatile memory capabilities, allowing it to store resistance settings even when power is disconnected. This feature ensures that the device retains its settings upon power-up, eliminating the need for manual calibration each time.
Another notable feature is the low power consumption of the DS1267E-10, which makes it suitable for portable or battery-powered applications. The device operates from a single 5V supply and consumes minimal power during normal operation, maximizing battery life
