AD5235BRUZ250-R7

Digital Potentiometer 250KΩ 1024POS Non-Volatile Linear/Log 16Pin TSSOP T/R

**GENERAL DESCRIPTION**

The AD5235 is a dual-channel, nonvolatile memory, digitally controlled potentiometer2 with 1024-step resolution, offering guaranteed maximum low resistor tolerance error of ±8%. The device performs the same electronic adjustment function as a mechanical potentiometer with enhanced resolution, solid state reliability, and superior low temperature coefficient performance. The versatile programming of the AD5235 via an SPI®-compatible serial interface allows 16 modes of operation and adjustment including scratchpad programming, memory storing and restoring, increment/decrement, ±6 dB/step log taper adjustment, wiper setting readback, and extra EEMEM for user defined information such as memory data for other components,

look-up table, or system identification information.
