DESCRIPTION
The CAT525 is a quad 8-bit digitally programmable potentiometer (DPPTM) configured for programmable voltage and DAC-like applications. Intended for final calibration of products such as camcorders, fax machines and cellular telephones on automated high volume production lines and systems capable of self calibration, it is also well suited for applications were equipment requiring periodic adjustment is either difficult to access or located in a hazardous environment. The CAT525 offers four independently programmable DPPs each having its own reference inputs and each capable of rail to rail output swing. The wipers are buffered by rail to rail op amps. Wiper settings, stored in non-volatile NVRAM memory, are not lost when the device is powered down and are automatically reinstated when power is returned. Each wiper can be dithered to FUNCTIONAL DIAGRAM

test new output values without effecting the stored settings and stored settings can be read back without disturbing the DPP's output. Control of the CAT525 is accomplished with a simple 3wire, Microwire-like serial interface. A Chip Select pin allows several CAT525's to share a common serial interface and communications back to the host controller is via a single serial data line thanks to the CAT525's TriStated Data Output pin. A RDY/BSY output working in concert with an internal low voltage detector signals proper operation of non-volatile NVRAM Memory Erase/ Write cycle. The CAT525 is available in the 0°C to 70°C commercial and -40°C to 85°C industrial operating temperature ranges and offered in 20-pin plastic DIP and surface mount packages. PIN CONFIGURATION

DEVICE OPERATION The CAT525 is a quad 8-bit configured digitally programmable potentiometer (DPP/CDPP) whose outputs can be programmed to any one of 256 individual voltage steps. Once programmed, these output settings are retained in non-volatile memory and will not be lost when power is removed from the chip. Upon power up the DPPs return to the settings stored in non-volatile memory. Each confitured DPP can be written to and read from independently without effecting the output voltage during the read or write cycle. Each output can also be adjusted without altering the stored output setting, which is useful for testing new output settings before storing them in memory. DIGITAL INTERFACE The CAT525 employs a 3 wire serial, Microwire-like control interface consisting of Clock (CLK), Chip Select (CS) and Data In (DI) inputs. For all operations, address and data are shifted in LSB first. In addition, all digital data must be preceded by a logic "1" as a start bit. The DPP address and data are clocked into the DI pin on the clock's rising edge. When sending multiple blocks of information a minimum of two clock cycles is required between the last block sent and the next start bit. Multiple devices may share a common input data line by selectively activating the CS control of the desired IC. Data Outputs (DO) can also share a common line because the DO pin is Tri-Stated and returns to a high

impedance when not in use. CHIP SELECT Chip Select (CS) enables and disables the CAT525's read and write operations. When CS is high data may be read to or from the chip, and the Data Output (DO) pin is active. Data loaded into the DPP wiper control registers will remain in effect until CS goes low. Bringing CS to a logic low returns all DPP outputs to the settings stored in non-volatile memory and switches DO to its high impedance Tri-State mode. Because CS functions like a reset the CS pin has been desensitized with a 30 ns to 90 ns filter circuit to prevent noise spikes from causing unwanted resets and the loss of volatile data. CLOCK The CAT525's clock controls both data flow in and out of the IC and non-volatile memory cell programming. Serial data is shifted into the DI pin and out of the DO pin on the clock's rising edge. While it is not necessary for the clock to be running between data transfers, the clock must be operating in order to write to non-volatile memory, even though the data being saved may already be resident in the DPP wiper control register. No clock is necessary upon system power-up. The CAT525's internal power-on reset circuitry loads data from non-volatile memory to the DPPs without using the external clock.
