Quad Digital Controlled Potentiometers (XDCP™) Low Noise/Low Power/I2C
Bus/256 Taps
The X95840 integrates four digitally controlled
potentiometers (XDCP) on a monolithic CMOS integrated
circuit.
The digitally controlled potentiometers are implemented with
a combination of resistor elements and CMOS switches. The
position of the wipers are controlled by the user through the
I2C bus interface. Each potentiometer has an associated
volatile Wiper Register (WR) and a non-volatile Initial Value
Register (IVR), that can be directly written to and read by the
user. The contents of the WR controls the position of the
wiper. At power up the device recalls the contents of the four
DCP’s IVR to the corresponding WRs.
Features
• Four Potentiometers in One Package
• 256 Resistor Taps-0.4% Resolution
• I2C Serial Interface
- Three address pins, up to eight devices/bus
• Wiper Resistance: 70 Typical @ 3.3V
• Non-Volatile Storage of Wiper Position
• Standby Current < 5µA Max
• Power Supply: 2.7V to 5.5V
The DCPs can be used as three-terminal potentiometers or
as two-terminal variable resistors in a wide variety of
applications including control, parameter adjustments, and
signal processing.

NOTES:
1. Typical values are for TA = 25°C and 3.3V supply voltage.
2. LSB: [V(RW)255 - V(RW)0] / 255. V(RW)255 and V(RW)0 are V(RW) for the DCP register set to FF hex and 00 hex respectively. LSB is the
incremental voltage when changing from one tap to an adjacent tap.
3. ZS error = V(RW)0 / LSB.
4. FS error = [V(RW)255 - VCC] / LSB.
5. DNL = [V(RW)i - V(RW)i-1] / LSB-1, for i = 1 to 255. i is the DCP register setting.
6. INL = [V(RW)i – (i • LSB – V(RW)0)]/LSB for i = 1 to 255.
7. VMATCH = [V(RWx)i - V(RWy)i] / LSB, for i = 0 to 255, x = 0 to 3 and y = 0 to 3.
Max V RW i – Min V RW i
10 6
- ----------------8. TC V = -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Max V RW i + Min V RW i 2 125°C
for i = 16 to 240 decimal, T = -40°C to 85°C. Max( ) is the maximum value of the wiper voltage and Min ( ) is the minimum value of the wiper
voltage over the temperature range.
9. MI = |R255 - R0| / 255. R255 and R0 are the measured resistances for the DCP register set to FF hex and 00 hex respectively.
10. Roffset = R0 / MI, when measuring between RW and RL.
Roffset = R255 / MI, when measuring between RW and RH.
11. RDNL = (Ri - Ri-1) / MI, for i = 32 to 255.
12. RINL = [Ri - (MI • i) - R0] / MI, for i = 32 to 255.
13. RMATCH = (Ri,x - Ri,y) / MI, for i = 0 to 255, x = 0 to 3 and y = 0 to 3.

Max Ri – Min Ri
10
14. TC R = ---------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------- Max Ri + Min Ri 2 125°C
for i = 32 to 255, T = -40°C to 85°C. Max( ) is the maximum value of the resistance and Min ( ) is the minimum value of the resistance over the
temperature range.
15. This parameter is not 100% tested.
16. tWC is the minimum cycle time to be allowed for any non-volatile Write by the user, unless Acknowledge Polling is used. It is the time from a
valid STOP condition at the end of a Write sequence of a I2C serial interface Write operation, to the end of the self-timed internal non-volatile
write cycle.

Principles of Operation
Memory Description
The X95840 in as integrated circuit incorporating four DCPs
with their associated registers, non-volatile memory, and a I2C
serial interface providing direct communication between a host
and the potentiometers and memory.
The X95840 contains eight non-volatile bytes. they are
accessed by I2C interface operations with Address Bytes 0
through 7 decimal. The first four non-volatile bytes at
addresses 0, 1, 2, and 3, contain the initial value loaded at
power-up into the volatile Wiper Registers (WRs) of DCP0,
DCP1, DCP2, and DCP3 respectively. Bytes at addresses 4, 5,
and 6 are available to the user as general purpose registers.
The byte at address 7 is reserved; the user should not write to
it, and its value should be ignored if read.
DCP Description
Each DCP is implemented with a combination of resistor
elements and CMOS switches. The physical ends of each DCP
are equivalent to the fixed terminals of a mechanical
potentiometer (RH and RL pins). The RW pin of each DCP is
connected to intermediate nodes, and is equivalent to the
wiper terminal of a mechanical potentiometer. The position of
the wiper terminal within the DCP is controlled by an 8-bit
volatile Wiper Register (WR). Each DCP has its own WR.
When the WR of a DCP contains all zeroes (WR: 00h),
its wiper terminal (RW) is closest to its “Low” terminal (RL).
When the WR of a DCP contains all ones (WR: FFh), its
wiper terminal (RW) is closest to its “High” terminal (RH). As
the value of the WR increases from all zeroes (00h) to all ones
(255 decimal), the wiper moves monotonically from the
position closest to RL to the closest to RH. At the same time,
the resistance between RW and RL increases monotonically,
while the resistance between RH and RW decreases
monotonically.
While the X95840 is being powered up, all four WRs are reset
to 80h (128 decimal), which locates RW roughly at the center
between RL and RH. Soon after the power supply voltage
becomes large enough for reliable non-volatile memory
reading, the X95840 reads the value stored on four different
non-volatile Initial Value Registers (IVRs) and loads them into
their corresponding WRs.
The WRs and IVRs can be read or written directly using the
I2C serial interface as described in the following sections.

The volatile WR, and the non-volatile Initial Value Register
(IVR) of a DCP are accessed with the same Address Byte.
A volatile byte at address 8 decimal, controls what byte is read
or written when accessing DCP registers: the WR, the IVR, or
both.
When the byte at address 8 is all zeroes, which is the default at
power up:
• A read operation to addresses 0, 1, 2 or 3 outputs the value
of the non-volatile IVRs.
• A write operation to addresses 0, 1, 2, or 3 writes the same
value to the WR and IVR of the corresponding DCP.
When the byte at address 8 is 80h (128 decimal):
• A read operation to addresses 0, 1, 2, or 3 outputs the value
of the volatile WR.
• A write operation to addresses 0, 1, 2, or 3 only writes to the
corresponding volatile WR.
It is not possible to write to an IVR without writing the same
value to its corresponding WR.
00h and 80h are the only values that should be written to
address 8. All other values are reserved and must not be
written to address 8.

X95840
To access the general purpose bytes at addresses 4, 5, or 6,
the value at address 8 must be all zeros.
The X95840 is pre-programed with 80h in the four IVRs.
All I2C interface operations must be terminated by a STOP
condition, which is a LOW to HIGH transition of SDA while SCL
is HIGH (See Figure 15). A STOP condition at the end of a
read operation, or at the end of a write operation to volatile
bytes only places the device in its standby mode. A STOP
condition during a write operation to a non-volatile byte,
initiates an internal non-volatile write cycle. The device enters
its standby state when the internal non-volatile write cycle is
completed.

command until this condition is met (See Figure 15). A START
condition is ignored during the power up sequence and during
internal non-volatile write cycles.
An ACK, Acknowledge, is a software convention used to
indicate a successful data transfer. The transmitting device,
either master or slave, releases the SDA bus after transmitting
eight bits. During the ninth clock cycle, the receiver pulls the
SDA line LOW to acknowledge the reception of the eight bits of
data (See Figure 16).
WR: Wiper Register, IVR: Initial value Register.
I2C Serial Interface
The X95840 supports a bidirectional I2C 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 always initiates data
transfers and provides the clock for both transmit and receive
operations. Therefore, the X95840 operates as a slave device
in all applications.
All communication over the I2C interface is conducted by
sending the MSB of each byte of data first.
The X95840 responds with an ACK after recognition of a
START condition followed by a valid Identification Byte, and
once again after successful receipt of an Address Byte. The
X95840 also responds with an ACK after receiving a Data Byte
of a write operation. The master must respond with an ACK
after receiving a Data Byte of a read operation
A valid Identification Byte contains 1010 as the four MSBs, and
the following three bits matching the logic values present at
pins A2, A1, and A0. The LSB in the Read/Write bit. Its value is
“1” for a Read operation, and “0” for a Write operation. See
Table 2.
Protocol Conventions
Data states on the SDA line can change only during SCL LOW
periods. SDA state changes during SCL HIGH are reserved for
indicating START and STOP conditions (See Figure 15). On
power up of the X95840 the SDA pin is in the input mode.
All I2C interface operations must begin with a START
condition, which is a HIGH to LOW transition of SDA while SCL
is HIGH. The X95840 continuously monitors the SDA and SCL
lines for the START condition and does not respond to any

Write Operation
A Write operation requires a START condition, followed by a
valid Identification Byte, a valid Address Byte, a Data Byte, and
a STOP condition. After each of the three bytes, the X95840
responds with an ACK. At this time, if the Data Byte is to be
written only to volatile registers, then the device enters its
standby state. If the Data Byte is to be written also to nonvolatile memory, the X95840 begins its internal write cycle to
non-volatile memory. During the internal non-volatile write
cycle, the device ignores transitions at the SDA and SCL pins,
and the SDA output is at a high impedance state. When the
internal non-volatile write cycle is completed, the X95840
enters its standby state (See Figure 17).
The byte at address 00001000 bin (8 decimal) determines if
the Data Byte is to be written to volatile and/or non-volatile
memory. See “Memory Description” on page 9.
Data Protection
The WP pin has to be at logic HIGH to perform any Write
operation to the device. When the WP is active (LOW) the
device ignores Data Bytes of a Write Operation, does not
respond to the Data Bytes with an ACK, and instead, goes to
its standby state waiting for a new START condition.
FN8213 Rev 2.00
July 5, 2006
A STOP condition also acts as a protection of non-volatile
memory. A valid Identification Byte, Address Byte, and total
number of SCL pulses act as a protection of both volatile and
non-volatile registers. During a Write sequence, the Data Byte
is loaded into an internal shift register as it is received. If the
Address Byte is 0, 1, 2, 3, or 8 decimal, the Data Byte is
transferred to the appropriate Wiper Register (WR) or to the
Access Control Register, at the falling edge of the SCL pulse
that loads the last bit (LSB) of the Data Byte. If the Address
Byte is between 0 and 6 (inclusive), and the Access Control
Register is all zeros (default), then the STOP condition initiates
the internal write cycle to non-volatile memory.
Read Operation
A Read operation consist of a three byte instruction followed by
one or more Data Bytes (See Figure 18). The master initiates
the operation issuing the following sequence: a START, the
Identification byte with the R/W bit set to “0”, an Address Byte,
a second START, and a second Identification byte with the R/W
bit set to “1”. After each of the three bytes, the X95840
responds with an ACK. Then the X95840 transmits Data Bytes
as long as the master responds with an ACK during the SCL
cycle following the eight bit of each byte. The master
terminates the read operation (issuing a STOP condition)
following the last bit of the last Data Byte (See Figure 18).

X95840
The Data Bytes are from the memory location indicated by an
internal pointer. This pointer initial value is determined by the
Address Byte in the Read operation instruction, and
increments by one during transmission of each Data Byte.
After reaching the memory location 08h (8 decimal) the pointer
“rolls over” to 00h, and the device continues to output data for
each ACK received.
