General Description
The MAX5477/MAX5478/MAX5479 nonvolatile, dual,
linear-taper, digital potentiometers perform the function
of a mechanical potentiometer, but replace the
mechanics with a simple 2-wire digital interface. Each
device performs the same function as a discrete poten-
tiometer 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. A write-protect feature prevents accidental
overwrites of the EEPROM. The fast-mode I
2
C-compati-
ble serial interface allows communication at data rates
up to 400kbps, minimizing board space and reducing
interconnection complexity in many applications. Three
address inputs allow a total of eight unique address
combinations.
The MAX5477/MAX5478/MAX5479 provide three nomi-
nal resistance values: 10kΩ (MAX5477), 50kΩ
(MAX5478), or 100kΩ (MAX5479). The nominal resistor
temperature coefficient is 70ppm/°C end-to-end and
10ppm/°C ratiometric. The low temperature coefficient
makes the devices ideal for applications requiring a low-
temperature-coefficient variable resistor, such as low-
drift, programmable gain-amplifier circuit configurations.
The MAX5477/MAX5478/MAX5479 are available in 16-
pin 3mm x 3mm x 0.8mm TQFN and 14-pin 4.4mm x
5mm TSSOP packages. These devices operate over
the extended -40°C to +85°C temperature range.

Note 2:
All devices are production tested at T
A
= +25°C and are guaranteed by design and characterization for -40°C < T
A
< +85°C.
Note 3:
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 4:
The DNL and INL are measured with the potentiometer configured as a variable resistor. H_ is unconnected and L_ =
GND. For V
DD
= +5V, the wiper is driven with 400µA (MAX5477), 80µA (MAX5478), or 40µA (MAX5479). For V
DD
= +3V,
the wiper is driven with 200µA (MAX5477), 40µA (MAX5478), or 20µA (MAX5479).
Note 5:
The wiper resistance is measured using the source currents given in Note 3.
Note 6:
The devices draw current in excess of the specified 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 7:
Wiper at midscale with a 10pF load (DC measurement). L_ = GND, an AC source is applied to H_, and the W_ output is
measured. A 3dB bandwidth occurs when the AC W_/H_ value is 3dB lower than the DC W_/H_ value.
Note 8:
The programming current exists only during power-up and EEPROM writes.
Note 9:
The SCL clock period includes rise and fall times (t
R
= t
F
). All digital input signals are specified with t
R
= t
F
= 2ns and
timed from a voltage level of (V
IL
+ V
IH
) / 2.
Note 10:
Digital timing is guaranteed by design and characterization, and is not production tested.
Note 11:
This is measured from the STOP pulse to the time it takes the output to reach 50% of the output step size (divider mode). It
is measured with a maximum external capacitive load of 10pF.
Note 12:
An appropriate bus pullup resistance must be selected depending on board capacitance. Refer to the I
2
C-bus specifica-
tion document linked to this web address: www.semiconductors.philips.com/acrobat/literature/9398/39340011.pdf
Note 13:
The idle time begins from the initiation of the STOP pulse.
