The digitally controlled potentiometer is implemented using 63 resistive elements in a series array. Between each element are tap points connected to the wiper terminal through switches. The position of the wiper on the array is controlled by the user through the 2-wire bus interface. Each potentiometer has associated with it a volatile Wiper Counter Register (WCR) and 2 nonvolatile Data Registers (DR0:DR1) that can be directly written to and read by the user. The contents of the WCR controls the position of the wiper on the resistor array through the switches. Power up recalls the contents of DR0 to the WCR. The XDCP can be used as a three-terminal potentiometer or as a two-terminal variable resistor in a wide variety of applications including control, parameter adjustments, and signal processing.

Serial Data (SDA) SDA is a bidirectional pin used to transfer data into and out of the device. It is an open drain output and may be wire-ORed with any number of open drain or open collector outputs. An open drain output requires the use of a pull-up resistor. For selecting typical values, refer to the guidelines for calculating typical values on the bus pull-up resistors graph. Address The Address inputs are used to set the least significant 4 bits of the 8-bit slave address. A match in the slave address serial data stream must be made with the Address input in order to initiate communication with the X9221A Potentiometer Pins VH/RH(VH0/RH0-VH1/RH1), VL/RL (VL0/RL0-VL1/RL1) The VH/RH and VL/RL inputs are equivalent to the terminal connections on either end of a mechanical potentiometer. VW/RW (VW0/RW0-VW1/RW1) The wiper outputs are equivalent to the wiper output of a mechanical potentiometer.

Serial Interface The X9221A supports a bidirectional bus oriented protocol. The protocol defines any device that sends data onto the bus as a transmitter and the receiving device as the receiver. The device controlling the transfer is a master and the device being controlled is the slave. The master will always initiate data transfers and provide the clock for both transmit and receive operations. Therefore, the X9221A will be considered a slave device in all applications. Clock and Data Conventions Data states on the SDA line can change only during SCL LOW periods (tLOW). SDA state changes during SCL HIGH are reserved for indicating start and stop conditions. Start Condition All commands to the X9221A are preceded by the start condition, which is a HIGH to LOW transition of SDA while SCL is HIGH (tHIGH). The X9221A continuously monitors the SDA and SCL lines for the start condition, and will not respond to any command until this condition is met. Stop Condition All communications must be terminated by a stop condition, which is a LOW to HIGH transition of SDA while SCL is HIGH. 3 FN8163.1 September 14, 2005 X9221A Acknowledge Acknowledge is a software convention used to provide a positive handshake between the master and slave devices on the bus to indicate the successful receipt of data. The transmitting device, either the master or the slave, will release the SDA bus after transmitting eight bits. The master generates a ninth clock cycle and during this period the receiver pulls the SDA line LOW to acknowledge that it successfully received the eight bits of data. See Figure 7. The X9221A will respond with an acknowledge after recognition of a start condition and its slave address and once again after successful receipt of the command byte. If the command is followed by a data byte the X9221A will respond with a final acknowledge. Array Description The X9221A is comprised of two resistor arrays. Each array contains 63 discrete resistive segments that are connected in series. The physical ends of each array are equivalent to the fixed terminals of a mechanical potentiometer (VH/RH and VL/RL inputs). At both ends of each array and between each resistor segment is a FET switch connected to the wiper (VW/RW) output. Within each individual array only one switch may be turned on at a time. These switches are controlled by the Wiper Counter Register (WCR). The six least significant bits of the WCR are decoded to select, and enable, one of sixty-four switches. The WCR may be written directly, or it can be changed by transferring the contents of one of four associated data registers into the WCR. These data registers and the WCR can be read and written by the host system. Device Addressing Following a start condition the master must output the address of the slave it is accessing. The most significant four bits of the slave address are the device type identifier (refer to Figure 1 below). For the X9221A this is fixed as 0101[B]. Figure 1. Slave Address Device Type Identifier 0 1 0 1 A3 A2 A1 A0 Proceed Device Address Proceed The next four bits of the slave address are the device address. The physical device address is defined by the state of the A0-A3 inputs. The X9221A compares the serial data stream with the address input state; a successful compare of all four address bits is required for the X9221A to respond with an acknowledge. Acknowledge Polling The disabling of the inputs, during the internal nonvolatile write operation, can be used to take advantage of the typical 5ms EEPROM write cycle time. Once the stop condition is issued to indicate the end of the nonvolatile write command the X9221A initiates the internal write cycle. ACK polling can be initiated immediately. This involves issuing the start condition followed by the device slave address. If the X9221A is still busy with the write operation no ACK will be returned. If the X9221A has completed the write operation an ACK will be returned and the master can then proceed with the next operation. Flow 1.

The four most significant bits are the instruction. The next four bits point to one of two pots and when applicable they point to one of four associated registers. The format is shown below in Figure 2. Figure 2. Instruction Byte Format t transfer from WCR’s current wiper position to a data register is a write to nonvolatile memory and takes a minimum of tWR to complete. The transfer can occur between either potentiometer and their associated registers or it may occur between both of the potentiometers and one of their associated registers. Four instructions require a three-byte sequence to complete. These instructions transfer data between the host and the X9221A; either between the host and one of the data registers or directly between the host and the WCR. These instructions are: Read WCR, read the current wiper position of the selected pot; Write WCR, change current wiper position of the selected pot; Read Data Register, read the contents of the selected nonvolatile register; Write Data Register, write a new value to the selected data register. The sequence of operations is shown in Figure 4. The Increment/Decrement command is different from the other commands. Once the command is issued and the X9221A has responded with an acknowledge, the master can clock the selected wiper up and/or down in one segment steps; thereby, providing a fine tuning capability to the host. For each SCL clock pulse (tHIGH) while SDA is HIGH, the selected wiper will move one resistor segment towards the VH/RH terminal. Similarly, for each SCL clock pulse while SDA is LOW, the selected wiper will move one resistor segment towards the VL/RL terminal. A detailed illustration of the sequence and timing for this operation are shown in Figures 5 and 6 respectively. Potentiometer Select I3 I2 I1 I0 0 P0 R1 R0 Instructions Register Select The four high order bits define the instruction. The sixth bit (P0) selects which one of the two potentiometers is to be affected by the instruction. The last two bits (R1 and R0) select one of the four registers that is to be acted upon when a register oriented instruction is issued. Four of the nine instructions end with the transmission of the instruction byte. The basic sequence is illustrated in Figure 3. These two-byte instructions exchange data between the WCR and one of the data registers. A transfer from a data register to a WCR is essentially a write to a static RAM. The response of the wiper to this action will be delayed tSTPWV. A Figure 3.

Each potentiometer is comprised of a resistor array, a wiper counter register and four data registers. A detailed discussion of the register organization and array operation follows. Wiper Counter Register The X9221A contains two wiper counter registers (WCR), one for each XDCP potentiometer. The WCR can be envisioned as a 6-bit parallel and serial load counter with its outputs decoded to select one of sixtyfour switches along its resistor array. The contents of the WCR can be altered in four ways: it may be written directly by the host via the Write WCR instruction (serial load); it may be written indirectly by transferring the contents of one of four associated data registers via the XFR Data Register instruction (parallel load); it can be modified one step at a time by the Increment/ Decrement instruction; finally, it is loaded with the contents of its data register zero (R0) upon power-up. Figure 8. Detailed Potentiometer Block Diagram The WCR is a volatile register; that is, its contents are lost when the X9221A is powered-down. Although the register is automatically loaded with the value in R0 upon power-up, it should be noted this may be different from the value present at power-down. Data Registers Each potentiometer has four nonvolatile data registers. These can be read or written directly by the host and data can be transferred between any of the four data registers and the WCR. It should be noted all operations changing data in one of these registers is a nonvolatile operation and will take a maximum of 10ms. If the application does not require storage of multiple settings for the potentiometer, these registers can be used as regular memory locations that could possibly store system parameters or user preference data.
