MAX5422/MAX5423/MAX5424
The MAX5422/MAX5423/MAX5424 nonvolatile, linear-
taper, digital potentiometers perform the function of a
mechanical potentiometer, but replace the mechanics
with a simple 3-wire SPI™-compatible digital interface.
Each device performs the same function as a discrete
potentiometer or variable resistor and has 256 tap points.
The devices feature an internal, nonvolatile EEPROM
used to store the wiper position for initialization during
power-up. The 3-wire SPI-compatible serial interface
allows communication at data rates up to 5MHz, mini-
mizing board space and reducing interconnection com-
plexity in many applications.
The MAX5422/MAX5423/MAX5424 provide three nomi-
nal resistance values: 50kΩ (MAX5422), 100kΩ
(MAX5423), or 200kΩ (MAX5424). The nominal resistor
temperature coefficient is 35ppm/°C end-to-end and
only 5ppm/°C ratiometric. This makes the devices ideal
for applications requiring a low-temperature-coefficient
variable resistor, such as low-drift, programmable gain-
amplifier circuit configurations.
The MAX5422/MAX5423/MAX5424 are available in a
3mm x 3mm 8-pin TDFN package, and are specified
over the extended -40°C to +85°C temperature range.

Note 1:
The DNL and INL are measured with the potentiometer configured as a voltage-divider with H = V
DD
and L = GND. The
wiper terminal is unloaded and measured with a high-input-impedance voltmeter.
Note 2:
The DNL and INL are measured with the potentiometer configured as a variable resistor. H is unconnected and L = GND.
For the 5V condition, the wiper terminal is driven with a source current of 80µA for the 50kΩ configuration, 40µA for the
100kΩ configuration, and 20µA for the 200kΩ configuration. For the 3V condition, the wiper terminal is driven with a source
current of 40µA for the 50kΩ configuration, 20µA for the 100kΩ, and 10µA for the 200kΩ configuration.
Note 3:
The wiper resistance is measured using the source currents given in Note 2. For operation to V
DD
= 2.7V, see Maximum
Wiper Resistance vs. Temperature in the
Typical Operating Characteristics.
Note 4:
The device draws higher supply current when the digital inputs are driven with voltages between (V
DD
- 0.5V) and (GND +
0.5V). See Supply Current vs. Digital Input Voltage in the
Typical Operating Characteristics.
Note 5:
Wiper at midscale with a 10pF load (DC measurement). L = GND; an AC source is applied to H; and the W output is mea-
sured. A 3dB bandwidth occurs when the AC W/H value is 3dB lower than the DC W/H value.
Note 6:
The programming current operates only during power-up and NV writes.
Note 7:
Digital timing is guaranteed by design and characterization, and is not production tested.
Note 8:
Wiper-settling time is the worst-case 0% to 50% rise-time measured between consecutive wiper positions. H = V
DD
, L =
GND, and the wiper terminal is unloaded and measured with a 10pF oscilloscope probe.
