Serial Bus Protocol
protocol. The synchronous Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI)
helps the CAT5251 to interface directly with many of
today’s popular microcontrollers. The CAT5251 contains an
8−bit instruction register. The instruction set and the
operation codes are detailed in Table 13, Instruction Set on
page 9.
byte will be received. The part is accessed via the SI pin, with
data being clocked in on the rising edge of SCK. The first
byte contains one of the six op−codes that define the
operation to be performed.
Device Operation
SPI serial interface logic, four 8−bit wiper control registers
and sixteen 8−bit, non−volatile memory data registers. Each
resistor array contains 255 separate resistive elements
connected in series. The physical ends of each array are
equivalent to the fixed terminals of a mechanical
potentiometer (R
may be interchanged. The tap positions between and at the
ends of the series resistors are connected to the output wiper
terminals (R
point for each potentiometer is connected to its wiper
terminal at a time and is determined by the value of the wiper
control register. Data can be read or written to the wiper
control registers or the non−volatile memory data registers
via the SPI bus. Additional instructions allow data to be
transferred between the wiper control registers and each
respective potentiometer’s non−volatile data registers. Also,
the device can be instructed to operate in an “increment/
decrement” mode.
