This register contains 5 status bits. These bits show the
state of the WiperLock bits, the Shutdown bit the Write
Protect bit, and if an EEPROM write cycle is active. The

Requires a High Voltage command to modify the state of this bit (for Non-Volatile devices only). This bit is
Not directly written, but reflects the system state (for this feature).
Status (STATUS) Register
D8:D5: Reserved. Forced to “1”
EEWA: EEPROM Write Active Status bit
This bit indicates if the EEPROM Write Cycle is occurring.
1 = An EEPROM Write cycle is currently occurring. Only serial commands to the Volatile memory
0 = An EEPROM Write cycle is NOT currently occurring
WL1: WiperLock Status bit for Resistor Network 1 (Refer to Section 5.3 “WiperLock™ Technology”
for further information)
WiperLock (WL) prevents the Volatile and Non-Volatile Wiper 1 addresses and the TCON register bits
R1HW, R1A, R1W, and R1B from being written to. High Voltage commands are required to enable and
disable WiperLock Technology.
1 = Wiper and TCON register bits R1HW, R1A, R1W, and R1B of Resistor Network 1 (Pot 1) are
0 = Wiper and TCON of Resistor Network 1 (Pot 1) can be modified
WL0: WiperLock Status bit for Resistor Network 0 (Refer to Section 5.3 “WiperLock™ Technology”
for further information)
The WiperLock Technology bits (WLx) prevents the Volatile and Non-Volatile Wiper 0 addresses and the
TCON register bits R0HW, R0A, R0W, and R0B from being written to. High Voltage commands are
required to enable and disable WiperLock Technology.
1 = Wiper and TCON register bits R0HW, R0A, R0W, and R0B of Resistor Network 0 (Pot 0) are
0 = Wiper and TCON of Resistor Network 0 (Pot 0) can be modified
SHDN: Hardware Shutdown pin Status bit (Refer to Section 5.4 “Shutdown” for further information)
This bit indicates if the Hardware shutdown pin (SHDN) is low. A hardware shutdown disconnects the
Terminal A and forces the wiper (Terminal W) to Terminal B (see
ware Shutdown (the SHDN pin is low) the serial interface is operational so the STATUS register may be
read.
1 = MCP4XXX is in the Hardware Shutdown state
0 = MCP4XXX is NOT in the Hardware Shutdown state

STATUS REGISTER
D8:D5
The WL1 bit always reflects the result of the last programming cycle to the non-volatile WL1
bit. After a POR or BOR event, the WL1 bit is loaded with the non-volatile WL1 bit value.
The WL0 bit always reflects the result of the last programming cycle to the non-volatile WL0
bit. After a POR or BOR event, the WL0 bit is loaded with the non-volatile WL0 bit value.
