MCP4231-502E/ML Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The MCP4231-502E/ML from Microchip Technology is a dual-channel digital potentiometer designed for various control applications. It offers a nominal resistance of 5k Ohms with a wide tolerance of ±20% and features 129 discrete steps for precise adjustment.

 

This device utilizes an SPI serial interface for high-speed read and write operations to its wiper registers. It supports a wide operating voltage range from 1.8V to 5.5V, making it suitable for diverse power supply environments. The digital potentiometer operates within an extended temperature range of -40°C to +125°C.

 

Packaged in a 16-QFN (4x4) format with an exposed pad, the MCP4231-502E/ML is designed for surface mounting. Its configuration as a potentiometer and linear taper make it ideal for applications requiring adjustable voltage dividers or gain control. The device also features a volatile memory type for storing wiper settings.

 

Key electrical characteristics include a typical wiper resistance of 75 Ohms and a temperature coefficient of 150ppm/°C. The device supports split rail applications and includes features like brown-out reset protection and internal weak pull-up resistors on digital inputs.
