MCP4231-502E/P Description

Short technical summary and product information.

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

 

This device utilizes an SPI serial interface for communication, supporting high-speed read and write operations to its wiper registers. The operating voltage range is from 1.8V to 5.5V, making it suitable for a wide array of electronic designs. The typical wiper resistance is 75Ω, and it operates with a linear taper.

 

Packaged in a 14-DIP format, the MCP4231-502E/P is designed for through-hole mounting. It operates within an extended temperature range of -40°C to 125°C. The memory type is volatile, meaning wiper settings are lost upon power loss.
