GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD5243 and AD5248 provide a compact 3 mm × 4.9 mm
packaged solution for dual, 256-position adjustment applications.
The AD5243 performs the same electronic adjustment function as
a 3-terminal mechanical potentiometer, and the AD5248 performs
the same adjustment function as a 2-terminal variable resistor.
Available in four end-to-end resistance values (2.5 kΩ, 10 kΩ,
50 kΩ, and 100 kΩ), these low temperature coefficient devices
are ideal for high accuracy and stability-variable resistance
adjustments. The wiper settings are controllable through the
I2C-compatible digital interface. The AD5248 has extra package
address decode pins, AD0 and AD1, allowing multiple parts to
share the same I2C, 2-wire bus on a PCB. The resistance between
the wiper and either endpoint of the fixed resistor varies linearly
with respect to the digital code transferred into the RDAC latch.1
Operating from a 2.7 V to 5.5 V power supply and consuming
less than 6 µA allows the AD5243/AD5248 to be used in portable
battery-operated applications.
For applications that program the AD5243/AD5258 at the factory,
Analog Devices, Inc., offers device programming software running
on Windows® NT/2000/XP operating systems. This software
effectively replaces the need for external I2C controllers, which
in turn enhances the time to market of systems. An AD5243/
AD5248 evaluation kit and software are available. The kit includes
a cable and instruction manual.
1 The terms digital potentiometer, VR, and RDAC are used interchangeably.

THEORY OF OPERATION
The AD5243/AD5248 are 256-position, digitally controlled
variable resistor (VR) devices.
An internal power-on preset places the wiper at midscale
during power-on, which simplifies the fault condition recovery
at power-up.
PROGRAMMING THE VARIABLE RESISTOR AND
VOLTAGE
Rheostat Operation
The nominal resistance of the RDAC between Terminal A and
Terminal B is available in 2.5 kΩ, 10 kΩ, 50 kΩ, and 100 kΩ.
The nominal resistance (RAB) of the VR has 256 contact points
accessed by the wiper terminal and the B terminal contact. The
8-bit data in the RDAC latch is decoded to select one of the 256
possible settings.

Figure 37. Rheostat Mode Configuration
Assuming that a 10 kΩ part is used, the first connection of the
wiper starts at the B terminal for Data 0x00. Because there is
a 160 Ω wiper contact resistance, such a connection yields a
minimum of 320 Ω (2 × 160 Ω) resistance between Terminal W
and Terminal B. The second connection is the first tap point,
which corresponds to 359 Ω (RWB = RAB/256 + 2 × RW = 39 Ω +
2 × 160 Ω) for Data 0x01. The third connection is the next tap
point, representing 398 Ω (2 × 39 Ω + 2 × 160 Ω) for Data 0x02,
and so on. Each LSB data value increase moves the wiper up the
resistor ladder until the last tap point is reached at 10,281 Ω
(RAB + 2 × RW).

RAB is the end-to-end resistance.
RW is the wiper resistance contributed by the on resistance of
the internal switch.
In summary, if RAB is 10 kΩ and the A terminal is open circuited,
the following output resistance, RWB, is set for the indicated
RDAC latch codes.

Note that in the zero-scale condition, a finite wiper resistance of
320 Ω is present. Care should be taken to limit the current flow
between W and B in this state to a maximum pulse current of no
more than 20 mA. Otherwise, degradation or possible destruction
of the internal switch contact may occur.
Similar to the mechanical potentiometer, the resistance of the
RDAC between Wiper W and Terminal A also produces a
digitally controlled complementary resistance, RWA . When these
terminals are used, the B terminal can be opened. Setting the
resistance value for RWA starts at a maximum value of resistance
and decreases as the data loaded in the latch increases in value.

When RAB is 10 kΩ and the B terminal is open circuited, the

Typical device-to-device matching is process-lot dependent and
may vary by up to ±30%. Because the resistance element is pro-
cessed in thin-film technology, the change in RAB with temperature
has a very low temperature coefficient of 35 ppm/°C.

PROGRAMMING THE POTENTIOMETER DIVIDER
Voltage Output Operation
The digital potentiometer easily generates a voltage divider at
wiper to B and wiper to A, proportional to the input voltage at
A to B. Unlike the polarity of VDD to GND, which must be
positive, voltage across A to B, W to A, and W to B can be at
either polarity.

If ignoring the effect of the wiper resistance for approximation,
connecting the A terminal to 5 V and the B terminal to ground
produces an output voltage at the wiper to B, starting at 0 V up
to 1 LSB less than 5 V. Each LSB of voltage is equal to the voltage
applied across Terminal A and Terminal B divided by the
256 positions of the potentiometer divider. The general equation
defining the output voltage at VW with respect to ground for any
valid input voltage applied to Terminal A and Terminal B is

Operation of the digital potentiometer in the divider mode
results in more accurate operation over temperature. Unlike in
the rheostat mode, the output voltage is dependent mainly on
the ratio of the internal resistors, RWA and RWB, not on the
absolute values. Therefore, the temperature drift reduces to
15 ppm/°C.
ESD PROTECTION
All digital inputs are protected with a series of input resistors
and parallel Zener ESD structures, as shown in Figure 40 and
Figure 41. This applies to the SDA, SCL, AD0, and AD1 digital
input pins (AD5248 only).

TERMINAL VOLTAGE OPERATING RANGE
The AD5243/AD5248 VDD and GND power supply defines the
boundary conditions for proper 3-terminal digital potentiometer
operation. Supply signals present on the A, B, and W terminals
that exceed VDD or GND are clamped by the internal forward-
biased diodes (see Figure 42).

POWER-UP SEQUENCE
Because the ESD protection diodes limit the voltage compliance
at the A, B, and W terminals (see Figure 42), it is important to
power VDD/GND before applying voltage to the A, B, and W
terminals; otherwise, the diode is forward-biased such that VDD
is powered unintentionally and may affect the rest of the user’s
circuit. The ideal power-up sequence is in the following order:
GND, VDD, digital inputs, and then VA, VB, and VW. The relative
order of powering VA, VB, VW, and the digital inputs is not
important, as long as they are powered after VDD/GND.
LAYOUT AND POWER SUPPLY BYPASSING
It is a good practice to employ compact, minimum lead length
layout design. The leads to the inputs should be as direct as
possible with a minimum conductor length. Ground paths
should have low resistance and low inductance.
Similarly, it is also good practice to bypass the power supplies with
quality capacitors for optimum stability. Supply leads to the device
should be bypassed with disc or chip ceramic capacitors of 0.01 µF
to 0.1 µF. Low ESR 1 µF to 10 µF tantalum or electrolytic capacitors
should also be applied at the supplies to minimize any transient
disturbance and low frequency ripple (see Figure 43). In addition,
note that the digital ground should be joined remotely to the
analog ground at one point to minimize the ground bounce.

CONSTANT BIAS TO RETAIN RESISTANCE SETTING
For users who desire nonvolatility but cannot justify the addi-
tional cost of an EEMEM, the AD5243/AD5248 can be considered
low cost alternatives by maintaining a constant bias to retain the
wiper setting. The AD5243/AD5248 are designed specifically for
low power applications, allowing low power consumption even
in battery-operated systems. The graph in Figure 44 demonstrates
the power consumption from a 3.4 V, 450 mAhr Li-Ion cell phone
battery connected to the AD5243/AD5248. The measurement
over time shows that the device draws approximately 1.3 µA
and consumes negligible power. Over a course of 30 days, the
battery is depleted by less than 2%, the majority of which is due
to the intrinsic leakage current of the battery itself.

This demonstrates that constantly biasing the potentiometer
can be a practical approach. Most portable devices do not
require the removal of batteries for the purpose of charging.
Although the resistance setting of the AD5243/AD5248 is lost
when the battery needs replacement, such events occur rather
infrequently such that this inconvenience is justified by the
lower cost and smaller size offered by the AD5243/AD5248. If
total power is lost, the user should be provided with a means to
adjust the setting accordingly.

Rev. B | Page 16 of 20
I2C INTERFACE
I2C COMPATIBLE, 2-WIRE SERIAL BUS
The 2-wire, I2C-compatible serial bus protocol operates as follows:
1. The master initiates data transfer by establishing a start
condition, which is when a high-to-low transition on the
SDA line occurs while SCL is high (see Figure 45). The
following byte is the slave address byte, which consists of
the slave address followed by an R/W bit (this bit deter-
mines whether data is read from or written to the slave
device). The AD5243 has a fixed slave address byte,
whereas the AD5248 has two configurable address bits,
AD0 and AD1 (see Figure 10).
The slave whose address corresponds to the transmitted
address responds by pulling the SDA line low during the
ninth clock pulse (this is called the acknowledge bit). At
this stage, all other devices on the bus remain idle while the
selected device waits for data to be written to or read from
its serial register. If the R/W bit is high, the master reads
from the slave device. On the other hand, if the R/W bit is
low, the master writes to the slave device.
2. In the write mode, the second byte is the instruction byte.
The first bit (MSB) of the instruction byte is the RDAC
subaddress select bit. A logic low selects Channel 1 and a
logic high selects Channel 2.
The second MSB, SD, is a shutdown bit. A logic high causes
an open circuit at Terminal A while shorting the wiper to
Terminal B. This operation yields almost 0 Ω in rheostat
mode or 0 V in potentiometer mode. It is important to
note that the shutdown operation does not disturb the
contents of the register. When the AD5243 or AD5248 is
brought out of shutdown, the previous setting is applied to
the RDAC. In addition, during shutdown, new settings can
be programmed. When the part is returned from shutdown,
the corresponding VR setting is applied to the RDAC.
The remainder of the bits in the instruction byte are don’t
care bits (see Figure 10).
After acknowledging the instruction byte, the last byte in
write mode is the data byte. Data is transmitted over the
serial bus in sequences of nine clock pulses (eight data bits
followed by an acknowledge bit). The transitions on the
SDA line must occur during the low period of SCL and
remain stable during the high period of SCL (see Figure 45
and Figure 46).
3. In the read mode, the data byte follows immediately after the
acknowledgment of the slave address byte. Data is transmitted
over the serial bus in sequences of nine clock pulses (a slight
difference with the write mode, where there are eight data bits
followed by an acknowledge bit). Similarly, the transitions
on the SDA line must occur during the low period of SCL and
remain stable during the high period of SCL (see Figure 47
and Figure 48).
Note that the channel of interest is the one that is previously
selected in write mode. If users need to read the RDAC
values of both channels, they need to program the first
channel in write mode and then change to read mode to
read the first channel value. After that, the user must return
the device to write mode with the second channel selected
and read the second channel value in read mode. It is not
necessary for users to issue the Frame 3 data byte in write
mode for subsequent readback operation. Users should refer
to Figure 47 and Figure 48 for the programming format.
4. After all data bits have been read or written, a stop condition
is established by the master. A stop condition is defined as
a low-to-high transition on the SDA line while SCL is high.
In write mode, the master pulls the SDA line high during
the 10th clock pulse to establish a stop condition (see Figure
45 and Figure 46). In read mode, the master issues a no
acknowledge for the ninth clock pulse (that is, the SDA line
remains high). The master then brings the SDA line low
before the 10th clock pulse, which goes high to establish a
stop condition (see Figure 47 and Figure 48).
A repeated write function provides the user with the flexibility
of updating the RDAC output multiple times after addressing
and instructing the part only once. For example, after the
RDAC has acknowledged its slave address and instruction
bytes in write mode, the RDAC output updates on each
successive byte. If different instructions are needed, however,
the write/read mode must restart with a new slave address,
instruction, and data byte. Similarly, a repeated read function
of the RDAC is also allowed.

Each has a different slave address because the states of their
