General Description
The DS3502 is a 7-bit, nonvolatile (NV) digital poten-
tiometer (POT) featuring an output voltage range of up to
15.5V. Programming is accomplished by an I
2
C-compat-
ible interface, which can operate at speeds of up to
400kHz. External voltages are applied at the RL and RH
inputs to define the lowest and highest potentiometer
outputs.

All voltages are referenced to ground. Currents entering the IC are specified positive and currents exiting the IC are negative.
I
CC
is specified with the following conditions: SCL = 400kHz, SDA pulled up, and RL, RW, RH floating.
I
STBY
is specified with SDA = SCL = V
CC
= 5.5V and resistor pins floating.
This is the minimum V
CC
voltage that causes NV memory to be recalled.
This is the time from V
CC
> V
POR
until initial memory recall is complete.
Integral nonlinearity is the deviation of a measured resistor setting value from the expected values at each particular resis-
tor setting. Expected value is calculated by connecting a straight line from the measured minimum setting to the mea-
sured maximum setting. INL = [V(RW)
i
- (V(RW)
0
]/LSB(ideal) - i, for i = 0...127.
Differential nonlinearity is the deviation of the step-size change between two LSB settings from the expected step size.
The expected LSB step size is the slope of the straight line from measured minimum position to measured maximum posi-
tion. DNL = [V(RW)
i+1
- (V(RW)
i
]/LSB(ideal) - 1, for i = 0...126.
ZS error = code 0 wiper voltage divided by one LSB (ideal).
FS error = (code 127 wiper voltage - V+) divided by one LSB (ideal).

C interface timing shown is for fast-mode (400kHz) operation. This device is also backward-compatible with I

C standard
mode timing.
CB—total capacitance of one bus line in picofarads.
EEPROM write time begins after a STOP condition occurs.
Pulses narrower than max are suppressed.
