DESCRIPTION
The X9258 integrates 4 digitally controlled
potentiometers (XDCP) on a monolithic CMOS
integrated circuit.
The digitally controlled potentiometer is implemented
using 255 resistive elements in a series array.
Between each element are tap points connected to the
wiper terminal through switches. The position of the
wiper on the array is controlled by the user through the
2-wire bus interface. Each potentiometer has
associated with it a volatile Wiper Counter Register
(WCR) and 4 nonvolatile Data Registers (DR0:DR3)
that can be directly written to and read by the user.
The contents of the WCR controls the position of the
wiper on the resistor array though the switches. Power
up recalls the contents of DR0 to the WCR.
The XDCP can be used as a three-terminal
potentiometer or as a two-terminal variable resistor in
a wide variety of applications including control,
parameter adjustments, and signal processing.

PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION
The X9258 is a highly integrated microcircuit
incorporating four resistor arrays and their associated
registers and counters and the serial interface logic
providing direct communication between the host and
the DCP potentiometers.
Serial Interface—2-Wire
The X9258 supports a bidirectional bus oriented
protocol. The protocol defines any device that sends
data onto the bus as a transmitter and the receiving
device as the receiver. The device controlling the
transfer is a master and the device being controlled is
the slave. The master will always initiate data transfers
3
FN8168.4
August 30, 2006
X9258
and provide the clock for both transmit and receive
operations. Therefore, the X9258 will be considered a
slave device in all applications.
Clock and Data Conventions
Data states on the SDA line can change only during
SCL LOW periods (t
LOW
). SDA state changes during
SCL HIGH are reserved for indicating start and stop
conditions.
Start Condition
All commands to the X9258 are preceded by the start
condition, which is a HIGH to LOW transition of SDA
while SCL is HIGH (t
HIGH
). The X9258 continuously
monitors the SDA and SCL lines for the start condition
and will not respond to any command until this
condition is met.
Stop Condition
All communications must be terminated by a stop
condition, which is a LOW to HIGH transition of SDA
while SCL is HIGH.
Acknowledge
Acknowledge is a software convention used to provide
a positive handshake between the master and slave
devices on the bus to indicate the successful receipt of
data. The transmitting device, either the master or the
slave, will release the SDA bus after transmitting eight
bits. The master generates a ninth clock cycle and
during this period the receiver pulls the SDA line LOW
to acknowledge that it successfully received the eight
bits of data.
The X9258 will respond with an acknowledge after
recognition of a start condition and its slave address
and once again after successful receipt of the
command byte. If the command is followed by a data
byte the X9258 will respond with a final acknowledge.
Array Description
The X9258 is comprised of four resistor arrays. Each
array contains 255 discrete resistive segments that
are connected in series. The physical ends of each
array are equivalent to the fixed terminals of a
mechanical potentiometer (V
H
/R
H
and V
L
/R
L
inputs).
At both ends of each array and between each resistor
segment is a CMOS switch connected to the wiper
(V
W
) output. Within each individual array only one
switch may be turned on at a time. These switches are
controlled by the Wiper Counter Register (WCR). The
8 bits of the WCR are decoded to select, and enable,
one of 256 switches.
Device Address
The WCR may be written directly, or it can be changed
by transferring the contents of one of four associated
data registers into the WCR. These data registers and
the WCR can be read and written by the host system.
Device Addressing
Following a start condition the master must output the
address of the slave it is accessing. The most
significant four bits of the slave address are the device
type identifier (refer to Figure 1). For the X9258 this is
fixed as 0101[B].
Figure 1. Slave Address
Device Type
Identifier

A3
A2
A1
A0
The next four bits of the slave address are the device
address. The physical device address is defined by
the state of the A0 - A3 inputs. The X9258 compares
the serial data stream with the address input state; a
successful compare of all four address bits is required
for the X9258 to respond with an acknowledge. The
A
0
- A
3
inputs can be actively driven by CMOS input
signals or tied to V
CC
or V
SS
.
Acknowledge Polling
The disabling of the inputs, during the internal
nonvolatile write operation, can be used to take
advantage of the typical 5ms nonvolatile write cycle
time. Once the stop condition is issued to indicate the
end of the nonvolatile write command the X9258
initiates the internal write cycle. ACK polling can be
initiated immediately. This involves issuing the start
condition followed by the device slave address. If the
X9258 is still busy with the write operation no ACK will
be returned. If the X9258 has completed the write
operation an ACK will be returned and the master can
then proceed with the next operation.

Four of the nine instructions end with the transmission
of the instruction byte. The basic sequence is
illustrated in Figure 3. These two-byte instructions
exchange data between the Wiper Counter Register
and one of the data registers. A transfer from a Data
Register to a Wiper Counter Register is essentially a
write to a static RAM. The response of the wiper to this
action will be delayed t
WRL
. A transfer from the Wiper
Counter Register (current wiper position), to a data
register is a write to nonvolatile memory and takes a
minimum of t
WR
to complete. The transfer can occur
between one of the four potentiometers and one of its
associated registers; or it may occur globally, wherein
the transfer occurs between all of the potentiometers
and one of their associated registers.
Four instructions require a three-byte sequence to
complete. These instructions transfer data between
the host and the X9258; either between the host and
one of the data registers or directly between the host
and the Wiper Counter Register. These instructions
are: Read Wiper Counter Register (read the current
wiper position of the selected pot), Write Wiper
Counter Register (change current wiper position of the
selected pot), Read Data Register (read the contents
of the selected nonvolatile register) and Write Data
Register (write a new value to the selected data
register). The sequence of operations is shown in
Figure 4.

Instruction Structure
The next byte sent to the X9258 contains the
instruction and register pointer information. The four
most significant bits are the instruction. The next four
bits point to one of the two pots and when applicable
they point to one of four associated registers. The
format is shown below in Figure 2.

The four high order bits define the instruction. The
next two bits (R1 and R0) select one of the four

select which one of the four potentiometers is to be
affected by the instruction.
