The AD5162BRMZ100 is an integrated circuit (IC) component with a digital potentiometer and memory that is manufactured by Analog Devices Inc. It is designed to provide a variable resistance in electronic circuits to control voltage, current, and signal levels. Here is an overview of its key features:
1. Digital Potentiometer: The AD5162BRMZ100 integrates a digitally controlled potentiometer with resistance values ranging from 0 to 100 kilohms. This potentiometer can be programmed digitally to achieve precise resistance values.
2. 256-Position Resolution: It offers a resolution of 256 tap points, providing fine-grained control over the resistance setting.
3. Nonvolatile Memory: The IC incorporates nonvolatile memory that allows it to store the last programmed resistance setting even when power is removed. This feature ensures that the desired resistance values are retained for future use.
4. 400 kHz I2C Interface: The AD5162BRMZ100 uses the widely adopted I2C interface, enabling easy communication with microcontrollers, FPGAs, and other digital devices. It supports data transfer at speeds up to 400 kHz.
5. Wide Supply Voltage Range: This IC can operate from a supply voltage range of 2.7V to 5.5V. This flexibility enables it to be used in various low-power and portable applications
