MCP42050-I/P Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The MCP42050-I/P is a dual-channel digital potentiometer from Microchip Technology, offering 256 discrete resistance steps for precise control. It features a nominal resistance of 50 kOhms with a linear taper and a tolerance of ±30%. The device utilizes an industry-standard SPI serial interface for communication and control.

 

Designed for versatility, this digital potentiometer operates from a single supply voltage ranging from 2.7V to 5.5V. It is specified for an industrial operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. The MCP42050-I/P is available in a 14-pin PDIP package, suitable for through-hole mounting.

 

Key electrical characteristics include a typical temperature coefficient of 800ppm/°C and volatile memory type. The dual-channel configuration and cascade pin feature allow for flexible system design and potential daisy-chaining of multiple devices. This component is well-suited for applications requiring adjustable voltage division or resistance settings.
