The AD5162BRMZ2.5 is an integrated digital potentiometer IC component developed by Analog Devices. It is a versatile solution for a wide range of applications that require digitally-controlled resistors. This component offers a unique set of features and benefits, making it popular among engineers and designers. Here is an overview of the AD5162BRMZ2.5 and its key features:
1. Digital Potentiometer Functionality: The AD5162BRMZ2.5 combines the functionality of a digital potentiometer in a single chip. It functions as a variable resistor with selectable resistance values from 0 to 25 kilo-ohms.
2. Dual-Channel Operation: This IC component features two independent channels, allowing for simultaneous control of two digital potentiometers. Each channel has separate step-up and step-down registers, enabling individual adjustments.
3. I2C-Compatible Interface: The AD5162BRMZ2.5 utilizes an I2C-compatible interface, allowing for easy interfacing with microcontrollers, DSPs, and other digital systems. It supports standard I2C data rates up to 400 kHz.
4. Non-Volatile Memeory: The IC incorporates non-volatile memory (NVM) that can store settings, resistive values, and wiper positions even when the power is disconnected. This feature ensures that digital potentiometer settings are retained during power-up, enhancing reliability and ease of use
