Potentiometer offers less than 1% resistor tolerance.
Potentiometer offers less than 1% resistor tolerance.
September 2, 2009 -
Housed in 3 x 3 mm TDFN package, ISL22317 Digitally Controlled Potentiometer can track external resistor within 10 ppm/°C, optimizing overall system accuracy for temperatures up to 125°C. Device employs I2C interface to program resistor settings more than 1 million times in integrated EEPROM memory. Operating on single 2.7-5.5 V supply, DCP includes zero-compensated wiper resistance, 128-tap positions, and total resistance options of 10, 50, and 100 kW.
First Low-Voltage, Precision, Digitally Controlled Potentiometer (DCP) Reduces Cost, Programming and System Calibration
Patent-Pending ISL22317 Offers Less Than 1% Typical Resistor Tolerance, Zero-Compensated Wiper Resistance; More than 200x the Accuracy of Competitive Solutions
MILPITAS, CA, June 24, 2008 - Intersil Corporation (NASDAQ Global Select: ISIL), a leader in the design and manufacture of analog and mixed-signal semiconductors, today introduced ISL22317, the first low-voltage DCP with < 1 percent typical resistor tolerance. The ultra-low tolerance allows the ISL22317 to be used as a true variable resistor, enabling users to set standard and non-standard resistor values for open-loop applications.
The ISL22317 is an excellent choice for designs that require specific current and resistor values such as test and measurement circuits, medical devices, backlight controls, or adjusting specific resistances in analog circuits. The patent-pending architecture of the ISL22317 allows it to track an external resistor within 10ppm/oC, improving overall system accuracy for temperatures up to 125oC.
The ISL22317 reduces programming time and development costs by letting users select accurate pre-determined resistor values, and use calculated resistor values in schematics. In addition, it allows one to use the known value of one system to calibrate other systems. The device employs an easy-to-use I2C interface to program accurate resistor settings >1 million times in the integrated EEPROM memory.
Technical Features and Benefits
The ISL22317 also features a zero-compensated wiper resistance in rheostat mode. By negating wiper resistance, overall accuracy is improved, especially at the low tap positions where the ratio of wiper resistance to actual resistance is much higher. This enables users to do schematic calculations based on an actual 1 percent value, instead of competitive solutions that have >±20 percent tolerance of the resistor string in addition to wiper resistance error.
The product also features:
o 128-Tap Positions
o I2C Serial Interface
o Pin Selectable Slave Address
o 10k-ohm, 50k-ohm and 100k-ohm total resistance options
o Monotonic over-temperature
o Non-volatile EEPROM storage of wiper position
o Single 2.7V to 5.5V supply
o -40oC to 125oC operating temperature range
Packaging, Pricing, and Availability
The ISL22317 is available in 3mmx3mm TDFN Package - 0.75mm max thickness, 0.65mm pitch. Versions with 10k-ohms, 50k-ohms, and 100k-ohms are available; 1,000-unit pricing is $1.80.
