Analog Devices Inc. AD5161 SPI/I2C Selectable Digital Potentiometers

Analog Devices AD5161 SPI/I²C selectable digital potentiometers offer a compact 3mm × 4.9mm packaged solution for 256-position adjustment applications. The devices provide the same electronic adjustment function as mechanical potentiometers or variable resistors with enhanced resolution, solid-state reliability, and superior low-temperature coefficient performance. Operating from a 2.7V to 5.5V power supply and consuming less than 5μA, the AD5161 SPI/I²C selectable digital potentiometers are well-suited portable battery-operated applications.
