The use of the General Call Address Increment,
Decrement, or Write commands is analogous to the
“Load” feature (LDAC pin) on some DACs (such as the
MCP4921). This allows all the devices to “Update” the
output level “at the same time”.
For some applications, the ability to update the wiper
values “at the same time” may be a requirement, since
they delay from writing to one wiper value and then the
next may cause application issues. A possible example
would be a “tuned” circuit that uses several MCP44XX
in rheostat configuration. As the system condition
changes (temperature, load, etc.) these devices need
to be changed (incremented/decremented) to adjust for
the system change. These changes will either be in the
same direction or in opposite directions. With the
Potentiometer device, the customer can either select
the PxB terminals (same direction) or the PxA
terminal(s) (opposite direction).

MCP44XX devices to do General Call support or have
a conflict with General Call commands, the multiple I
