The AD8403ARU10 is a digital potentiometer, a type of integrated circuit (IC) component, manufactured by Analog Devices Inc. It is commonly used in electronic systems to provide variable resistance or change the gain of amplifiers, filters, and other circuits. Below is an overview and some key features of the AD8403ARU10.
1. Overview:
The AD8403ARU10 is a single-channel, non-volatile, digitally controlled potentiometer with a range of 10 kilo-ohms. It consists of a 256-position resistive element, wiper switches, and control logic. The device operates on a supply voltage ranging from 2.7V to 5.5V and communicates using a 3-wire SPI-compatible serial interface.
2. Key Features:
a. 256-Position Resolution: The AD8403ARU10 offers a fine resolution of 256 steps, allowing precise adjustment of resistance or gain levels in circuits.
b. Non-Volatile Memory: This digital potentiometer features non-volatile memory storage, ensuring that the wiper position is retained even when power is removed from the system.
c. Low Resistance Tolerance: It has a low resistance tolerance of ±20%, which enhances accuracy in resistance settings.
d. Low Temperature Coefficient: The AD8403ARU10 exhibits low temperature dependence, resulting in minimal resistance variations caused by temperature changes.
