FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The CAT5110/5118/5119/5123/5124/5125 consist of a
fixed resistor and a wiper contact with 32-tap points
that are digitally controlled through a 2-wire up/down
serial interface. Three end-to-end resistance values
are available: 10kΩ, 50kΩ and 100kΩ.
The CAT5110/5125 is designed to operate as a
potentiometer. In this configuration, the low terminal of
the resistor array is connected to ground (pin 2).
The CAT5118/5123 performs as a variable resistor. In
this device, the wiper terminal and high terminal of the
resistor
CAT5119/5124 is a similar variable resistor, except
the low terminal is connected to pin 5.
Digital Interface Operation
The MiniPots have two modes of operation when the
serial interface is active: increment and decrement
mode. The serial interface is only active when CS

wiper position is maintained.
Note that when the wiper reaches the maximum (or
minimum) tap position, the wiper will not wrap around
to the minimum (or maximum) position.
Power-On Reset
All parts in this family feature power-on reset (POR)
circuitry that sets the wiper position to midscale at
power-up. By default, the chip is in the increment mode.
