CAT50/58/59/523/524/525 linear-taper
digitally programmable potentiometers perform the same
function as a mechanical potentiometer or a variable
resistor. These devices consist of a fixed resistor and
a wiper contact with 32-tap points that are digitally
controlled through a 2-wire up/down serial interface.
The CAT5110 and CAT5125 are configured as poten-
tiometers. The CAT5118/19/23/24 are configured as
variable resistors.
Three resistance values are available: 10kΩ, 50kΩ and
100kΩ. All devices are available in space-saving 5-pin
and 6-pin SOT-23 packages. The CAT50/58/59
are also available in the SC70 package.

FunCTIOnAl DesCrIPTIOn
The CAT50/58/59/523/524/525 consist of
a fixed resistor and a wiper contact with 32-tap points
that are digitally controlled through a 2-wire up/down
serial interface. Three end-to-end resistance values are
available: 0kΩ, 50kΩ and 00kΩ.
The CAT50/525 is designed to operate as a
potentiometer. In this configuration, the low terminal of
the resistor array is connected to ground (pin 2).
The CAT58/523 performs as a variable resistor. In
this device, the wiper terminal and high terminal of the
resistor array are connected at pin 5. The CAT59/524
is a similar variable resistor, except the low terminal is
connected to pin 5.
DIGITAl InTerFACe OPerATIOn
The MiniPots have two modes of operation when the
serial interface is active: increment and decrement mode.
The serial interface is only active when CS is low.
The CS and U/D inputs control the position of the wiper
along the resistor array. When CS transitions from high
to low, the part will go into increment mode if U/D input
is high, and into decrement mode when U/D input is low.
Once the mode is set, the device will remain in that mode
until CS goes high again. A low-to-high transition at the
U/D pin will increment or decrement the wiper position
depending on the current mode (Figures and 2).
When the CS input transitions to high (serial interface
inactive), the value of the counter is stored and the wiper
position is maintained.
Note that when the wiper reaches the maximum (or
minimum) tap position, the wiper will not wrap around
to the minimum (or maximum) position.
POWer-On reseT
All parts in this family feature power-on reset (POR)
circuitry that sets the wiper position to midscale at power-
up. By default, the chip is in the increment mode.
