PROGRAMMING THE POTENTIOMETER DIVIDER
Voltage Output Operation
The digital potentiometer easily generates an output voltage pro-
portional to the input voltage applied to a given terminal. For
example, connecting Terminal A to 5 V and Terminal B to GND
produces an output voltage at the wiper that can be any value
from 0 V to 5 V. Each LSB of voltage is equal to the voltage
applied across Terminal A to Terminal B, divided by the 2
position resolution of the potentiometer divider. The general
equation defining the output voltage with respect to ground for
any given input voltage applied to Terminal A to Terminal B is
where R
can be obtained from Equation 2.
Operation of the digital potentiometer in the divider mode
results in more accurate operation over temperature. Here the
output voltage is dependent on the ratio of the internal resistors,
not the absolute value; therefore, the drift improves to 15 ppm/°C.
There is no voltage polarity restriction between Terminal A,
Terminal B, and Wiper Terminal W as long as the terminal voltage
(V
OPERATION FROM DUAL SUPPLIES
The AD5232 can be operated from dual supplies, enabling
control of ground-referenced ac signals (see Figure 42 for
a typical circuit connection).
The internal parasitic capacitances and the external capacitive
loads dominate the ac characteristics of the RDACs. When
configured as a potentiometer divider, the −3 dB bandwidth of
the AD5232BRU10 (10 kΩ resistor) measures 500 kHz at half
scale. Figure 14 provides the large signal BODE plot character-
istics of the three resistor versions: 10 kΩ, 50 kΩ, and 100 kΩ (see
Figure 43 for a parasitic simulation model of the RDAC circuit).

APPLICATION PROGRAMMING EXAMPLES
The command sequence examples shown in Table 14 to Table 18
have been developed to illustrate a typical sequence of events
for the various features of the AD5232 nonvolatile digital poten-
tiometer. Table 14 illustrates setting two digital potentiometers
to independent data values.
