light alarm applications.

The AD5232 device provides a nonvolatile, dual-channel,

digitally controlled variable resistor (VR) with 256-position The AD5232 is available in a thin TSSOP-16 package. All parts resolution. These devices perform the same electronic adjust- are guaranteed to operate over the extended industrial tempera- ment function as a potentiometer or variable resistor. The ture range of –40°C to +85°C. An evaluation board is available, AD5232’s versatile programming via a microcontroller allows Part Number: AD5232EVAL.

multiple modes of operation and adjustment. In the direct program mode a predetermined setting of the RDAC register can be loaded directly from the microcontroller. Another key mode of operation allows the RDAC register to be refreshed with the setting previously stored in the EEMEM register. When changes are made to the RDAC register to estab- lish a new wiper position, the value of the setting can be saved into the EEMEM by executing an EEMEM save operation. Once the settings are saved in the EEMEM register these values will be automatically transferred to the RDAC register to set the wiper position at system power ON. Such operation is enabled by the internal preset strobe and the preset can also be accessed externally.

All internal register contents can be read out of the serial data output (SDO). This includes the RDAC1 and RDAC2 registers, the corresponding nonvolatile EEMEM1 and EEMEM2 regis-
