ADVANCED CONTROL MODES
The ADN2850 digital resistor includes a set of user
programming features to address the wide number of
applications for these universal adjustment devices.
Key programming features include the following:
•

Linear Increment and Decrement Instructions
The increment and decrement instructions (Instruction 14,
Instruction 15, Instruction 6, and Instruction 7) are useful for
linear step adjustment applications. These commands simplify
microcontroller software coding by allowing the controller to
send just an increment or decrement command to the device.
The adjustment can be individual or in a ganged resistor
arrangement where both wiper positions are changed at the
same time.
For an increment command, executing Instruction 14
automatically moves the wiper to the next resistance segment
position. The master increment command, Instruction 15,
moves all resistor wipers up by one position.
Logarithmic Taper Mode Adjustment
Four programming instructions produce logarithmic taper
increment and decrement of the wiper position control by
an individual resistor or by a ganged resistor arrangement
where both wiper positions are changed at the same time. The 6
dB increment is activated by Instruction 12 and Instruction 13,
and the 6 dB decrement is activated by Instruction 4 and
Instruction 5. For example, starting with the wiper connected to
Terminal B, executing 11 increment instructions (Command
Instruction 12) moves the wiper in 6 dB steps from 0% of the R
(Terminal B) position to 100% of the R
ADN2850 10-bit resistor. When the wiper position is near the
maximum setting, the last 6 dB increment instruction causes
the wiper to go to the full-scale 1023 code position. Further 6
dB per increment instructions do not change the wiper position
beyond its full scale (see Table 9).
The 6 dB step increments and 6 dB step decrements are achieved
by shifting the bit internally to the left or right, respectively. The
following information explains the nonideal ±6 dB step adjustment
under certain conditions. Table 9 illustrates the operation of the
shifting function on the RDAC register data bits. Each table row
represents a successive shift operation. Note that the left-shift
12 and 13 instructions were modified such that, if the data in
the RDAC register is equal to zero and the data is shifted left,

the RDAC register is then set to Code 1. Similarly, if the data in
the RDAC register is greater than or equal to midscale and the data
is shifted left, then the data in the RDAC register is automatically
set to full scale. This makes the left-shift function as ideal a
logarithmic adjustment as possible.
The Right-Shift 4 instruction and Right-Shift 5 instruction are
ideal only if the LSB is 0 (ideal logarithmic = no error). If the
LSB is 1, the right-shift function generates a linear half-LSB
error, which translates to a number-of-bits dependent logarithmic
error, as shown in Figure 31. Figure 31 shows the error of the odd
numbers of bits for the ADN2850.

Actual conformance to a logarithmic curve between the data
contents in the RDAC register and the wiper position for each
Right-Shift 4 command and Right-Shift 5 command execution
contains an error only for odd numbers of bits. Even numbers of
bits are ideal. Figure 31 shows plots of log error [20 × log
(error/code)] for the ADN2850. For example, Code 3 log error =
20 × log
error plot is more significant at the lower codes (see Figure 31).
