General Description
The MAX5477/MAX5478/MAX5479 nonvolatile, dual,
linear-taper, digital potentiometers perform the function
of a mechanical potentiometer, but replace the
mechanics with a simple 2-wire digital interface. Each
device performs the same function as a discrete poten-
tiometer or variable resistor and has 256 tap points.
The devices feature an internal, nonvolatile EEPROM
used to store the wiper position for initialization during
power-up. A write-protect feature prevents accidental
overwrites of the EEPROM. The fast-mode I2C-compati-
ble serial interface allows communication at data rates
up to 400kbps, minimizing board space and reducing
interconnection complexity in many applications. Three
address inputs allow a total of eight unique address
combinations.
The MAX5477/MAX5478/MAX5479 provide three nomi-
nal resistance values: 10k(MAX5477), 50k
(MAX5478), or 100k(MAX5479). The nominal resistor
temperature coefficient is 70ppm/°C end-to-end and
10ppm/°C ratiometric. The low temperature coefficient
makes the devices ideal for applications requiring a low-
temperature-coefficient variable resistor, such as low-
drift, programmable gain-amplifier circuit configurations.
The MAX5477/MAX5478/MAX5479 are available in 16-
pin 3mm x 3mm x 0.8mm thin QFN and 14-pin 4.4mm x
5mm TSSOP packages. These devices operate over
the extended -40°C to +85°C temperature range.

Note 1: All devices are production tested at TA= +25°C and are guaranteed by design and characterization for -40°C < TA< +85°C.
Note 2: The DNL and INL are measured with the potentiometer configured as a voltage-divider with H_ = VDD and L_ = GND. The
wiper terminal is unloaded and measured with a high-input-impedance voltmeter.
Note 3: The DNL and INL are measured with the potentiometer configured as a variable resistor. H_ is unconnected and L_ =
GND. For VDD = +5V, the wiper is driven with 400µA (MAX5477), 80µA (MAX5478), or 40µA (MAX5479). For VDD = +3V,
the wiper is driven with 200µA (MAX5477), 40µA (MAX5478), or 20µA (MAX5479).
Note 4: The wiper resistance is measured using the source currents given in Note 3.
Note 5: The devices draw current in excess of the specified supply current when the digital inputs are driven with voltages between
(VDD - 0.5V) and (GND + 0.5V). See Supply Current vs. Digital Input Voltage in the Typical Operating Characteristics.
Note 6: Wiper at midscale with a 10pF load (DC measurement). L_ = GND, an AC source is applied to H_, and the W_ output is
measured. A 3dB bandwidth occurs when the AC W_/H_ value is 3dB lower than the DC W_/H_ value.
Note 7: The programming current exists only during power-up and EEPROM writes.
Note 8: The SCL clock period includes rise and fall times (tR= tF). All digital input signals are specified with tR= tF= 2ns and
timed from a voltage level of (VIL + VIH) / 2.
Note 9: Digital timing is guaranteed by design and characterization, and is not production tested.
Note 10: This is measured from the STOP pulse to the time it takes the output to reach 50% of the output step size (divider mode). It
is measured with a maximum external capacitive load of 10pF.
Note 11: An appropriate bus pullup resistance must be selected depending on board capacitance. Refer to the I2C-bus specifica-
tion document linked to this web address: www.semiconductors.philips.com/acrobat/literature/9398/39340011.pdf
Note 12: The idle time begins from the initiation of the STOP pulse.

Detailed Description
The MAX5477/MAX5478/MAX5479 contain two resistor
arrays with 255 elements in each array. The MAX5477
has a total end-to-end resistance of 10k, the
MAX5478 has an end-to-end resistance of 50k, and
the MAX5479 has an end-to-end resistance of 100k.
The MAX5477/MAX5478/MAX5479 provide access to
the high, low, and wiper terminals for a standard volt-
age-divider configuration. Connect H_, L_, and W_ in
any desired configuration as long as their voltages
remain between GND and VDD.
A simple 2-wire I2C-compatible serial interface moves
the wiper among the 256 tap points (Figure 2). A non-
volatile memory stores the wiper position and recalls
the stored wiper position upon power-up. The non-
volatile memory is guaranteed for 50 years for wiper
data retention and up to 200,000 wiper store cycles.
Analog Circuitry
The MAX5477/MAX5478/MAX5479 consist of two resistor
arrays with 255 resistive elements; 256 tap points are
accessible to the wipers, along the resistor string
between H_ and L_. The wiper tap point is selected by
programming the potentiometer through the I2C inter-
face. An address byte, a command byte, and 8 data bits
program the wiper position for each potentiometer. The
H_ and L_ terminals of the MAX5477/MAX5478/
MAX5479 are similar to the two end terminals of a
mechanical potentiometer. The MAX5477/MAX5478/
MAX5479 feature power-on reset circuitry that loads the
wiper position from the nonvolatile memory at power-up.

Digital Interface
The MAX5477/MAX5478/MAX5479 feature an internal,
nonvolatile EEPROM that stores the wiper state for ini-
tialization during power-up. The shift register decodes
the command and address bytes, routing the data to
the proper memory registers. Data written to a volatile
memory register immediately updates the wiper posi-
tion, or writes data to a nonvolatile register for storage
(see Table 3).
The volatile register retains data as long as the device
is powered. Removing power clears the volatile regis-
ter. The nonvolatile register retains data even after
power is removed. Upon power-up, the power-on reset
circuitry controls the transfer of data from the non-
volatile register to the volatile register.
Write Protect (WP)
A write-protect feature prevents accidental overwriting of
the EEPROM. Connect WP to VDD or leave unconnected
to prevent any EEPROM write cycles. Writing to the
volatile register (VREG) while WP = 1 updates the wiper
position with the protected data stored in the nonvolatile
register (NVREG). Connect WP to GND to allow write
commands to the EEPROM and to update the wiper
position from either the value in the EEPROM or directly
from the I2C interface (Table 2). Connecting WP to GND
increases the supply current by 19.6µA (max).
To ensure a fail-safe, write-protect feature, write the
data to be protected to both the nonvolatile and volatile
registers before pulling WP high. Releasing WP (WP =
0) and sending partial or invalid I2C commands (such
as single-byte address polling) can load the volatile

wiper position. Use valid 3-byte I2C commands for
proper operation. This precautionary operation is nec-
essary only when transitioning from write protected (WP
= 1) to not write protected (WP = 0).
Serial Addressing
The MAX5477/MAX5478/MAX5479 operate as slave
devices that send and receive data through an I2C-/
SMBus™-compatible 2-wire serial interface. The inter-
face uses a serial data access (SDA) line and a serial
clock line (SCL) to achieve bidirectional communication
between master(s) and slave(s). A master, typically a
microcontroller, initiates all data transfers to the
MAX5477/MAX5478/MAX5479, and generates the SCL
clock that synchronizes the data transfer (Figure 1).
The MAX5477/MAX5478/MAX5479 SDA line operates
as both an input and an open-drain output. The SDA
line requires a pullup resistor, typically 4.7k. The
MAX5477/MAX5478/MAX5479 SCL line operates only
as an input. The SCL line requires a pullup resistor (typ-
ically 4.7k) if there are multiple masters on the 2-wire
interface, or if the master in a single-master system has
an open-drain SCL output. SCL and SDA should not
exceed VDD in a mixed-voltage system, despite the
open-drain drivers.
Each transmission consists of a START (S) condition
(Figure 3) sent by a master, followed by the
MAX5477/MAX5478/MAX5479 7-bit slave address plus
the NOP/Wbit (Figure 4), 1 command byte and 1 data
byte, and finally a STOP (P) condition (Figure 3).
Start and Stop Conditions
Both SCL and SDA remain high when the interface is
not busy. A master controller signals the beginning of a
transmission with a START condition by transitioning
SDA from high to low while SCL is high. The master
controller issues a STOP condition by transitioning the
SDA from low to high while SCL is high, when it finishes
communicating with the slave. The bus is then free for
another transmission (Figure 3).
Bit Transfer
One data bit is transferred during each clock pulse.
The data on the SDA line must remain stable while SCL
is high (Figure 5).
Acknowledge
The acknowledge bit is a clocked 9th bit that the recipient
uses to handshake receipt of each byte of data (Figure
6). Thus, each byte transferred effectively requires 9 bits.
The master controller generates the 9th clock pulse, and
the recipient pulls down SDA during the acknowledge
clock pulse, so the SDA line remains stable low during
the high period of the clock pulse.
Slave Address
The MAX5477/MAX5478/MAX5479 have a 7-bit-long
slave address (Figure 4). The 8th bit following the 7-bit
slave address is the NOP/Wbit. Set the NOP/Wbit low for
a write command and high for a no-operation command.
The MAX5477/MAX5478/MAX5479 provide three
address inputs (A0, A1, and A2), allowing up to eight
devices to share a common bus (Table 1). The first 4
bits (MSBs) of the MAX5477/MAX5478/MAX5479 slave
addresses are always 0101. A2, A1, and A0 set the next

3 bits in the slave address. Connect each address input
to VDD or GND to set these 3 bits. Each device must
have a unique address to share a common bus.
Message Format for Writing
Write to the MAX5477/MAX5478/MAX5479 by transmit-
ting the device’s slave address with NOP/W(8th bit) set
to zero, followed by at least 1 byte of information
(Figure 7). The 1st byte of information is the command
byte. The bytes received after the command byte are
the data bytes. The 1st data byte goes into the internal
register of the MAX5477/MAX5478/MAX5479 as select-
ed by the command byte (Figure 8).
Command Byte
Use the command byte to select the source and desti-
nation of the wiper data (nonvolatile or volatile memory
registers) and swap data between nonvolatile and
volatile memory registers (see Table 3).
Command Descriptions
VREG: The data byte writes to the volatile memory reg-
ister and the wiper position updates with the data in the
volatile memory register.
NVREG: The data byte writes to the nonvolatile memory
register. The wiper position is unchanged.
NVREGxVREG: Data transfers from the nonvolatile
memory register to the volatile memory register (wiper
position updates).

VREGxNVREG: Data transfers from the volatile memory
register into the nonvolatile memory register.
Nonvolatile Memory
The internal EEPROM consists of a 16-bit nonvolatile
register that retains the value written to it prior to power
down. The nonvolatile register is programmed with the
midscale value at the factory. The nonvolatile memory
is guaranteed for 50 years for wiper position retention
and up to 200,000 wiper write cycles. A write-protect
feature prevents accidental overwriting of the EEPROM.
Connect WP to VDD or leave open to enable the write-
protect feature. The wiper position only updates with
the value in the EEPROM when WP = VDD. Connect WP
to GND to allow EEPROM write cycles and to update
the wiper position from nonvolatile memory or directly
from the I2C serial interface.
Power-Up
Upon power-up, the MAX5477/MAX5478/MAX5479
load the data stored in the nonvolatile memory register
into the volatile memory register, updating the wiper
position with the data stored in the nonvolatile memory
register. This initialization period takes 10µs.
Standby
The MAX5477/MAX5478/MAX5479 feature a low-power
standby mode. When the device is not being pro-
grammed, it enters into standby mode and supply cur-
rent drops to 500nA (typ).
Applications Information
The MAX5477/MAX5478/MAX5479 are ideal for circuits
requiring digitally controlled adjustable resistance,
such as LCD contrast control (where voltage biasing
adjusts the display contrast), or for programmable fil-
ters with adjustable gain and/or cutoff frequency.
Positive LCD Bias Control
Figures 9 and 10 show an application where the
MAX5477/MAX5478/MAX5479 provide an adjustable,
positive LCD bias voltage. The op amp provides buffer-
ing and gain to the resistor-divider network made by
the potentiometer (Figure 9) or by a fixed resistor and a
variable resistor (see Figure 10).
Programmable Filter
Figure 11 shows the MAX5477/MAX5478/MAX5479 in a
1st-order programmable application filter. Adjust the
gain of the filter with R2, and set the cutoff frequency
with R3. Use the following equations to calculate the
gain (A) and the -3dB cutoff frequency (fC):
Offset Voltage and Gain Adjustment
Connect the high and low terminals of one potentiome-
ter of a MAX5477 between the NULL inputs of a
MAX410 and the wiper to the op amp’s positive supply
to nullify the offset voltage over the operating tempera-
ture range. Install the other potentiometer in the feed-
back path to adjust the gain of the MAX410 (Figure 12).
Adjustable Voltage Reference
Figure 13 shows the MAX5477/MAX5478/MAX5479
used as the feedback resistors in multiple adjustable
voltage reference applications. Independently adjust
the output voltages of the MAX6160 parts from 1.23V to
VIN - 0.2V by changing the wiper positions of the
MAX5477/MAX5478/MAX5479.
