The CAT5419 serial clock input pin is used to clock
all data transfers into or out of the device.
SDA:
Serial Data
The CAT5419 bidirectional serial data pin is used
to transfer data into and out of the device. The
SDA pin is an open drain output and can be wire-
OR'd with the other open drain or open collector
outputs.
A0, A1, A2, A3: Device Address Inputs
These inputs set the device address when
addressing multiple devices. A total of sixteen
devices can be addressed on a single bus.
A match in the slave address must be made
with the address input in order to initiate
communication with the CAT5419.

DEVICE OPERATION
The CAT5419 is two resistor arrays integrated with 2-
wire serial interface logic, four 6-bit wiper control registers
and sixteen 6-bit, non-volatile memory data registers.
Each resistor array contains 63 separate resistive
elements connected in series. The physical ends of
each array are equivalent to the fixed terminals of a
mechanical potentiometer (R
H
and R
L
). R
H
and R
L
are
symmetrical and may be interchanged. The tap positions
between and at the ends of the series resistors are
connected to the output wiper terminals (R
W
) by a
CMOS transistor switch. Only one tap 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 2-wire 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.
