Dual, Temperature-Controlled Resistors with Inter-
nally Calibrated Monitors and Password Protection
General Description
The DS1856 dual, temperature-controlled, nonvolatile
(NV) variable resistors with three monitors consists of
two 256-position, linear, variable resistors; three analog
monitor inputs (MON1, MON2, MON3); and a direct-to-
digital temperature sensor. The device provides an
ideal method for setting and temperature-compensating
bias voltages and currents in control applications using
minimal circuitry. The variable resistor settings are
stored in EEPROM memory and can be accessed over
the 2-wire serial bus.
Relative to other members of the family, the DS1856 is
essentially a DS1859 with a DS1852-friendly memory
map. In particular, the DS1856 can be configured so
the 128 bytes of internal Auxiliary EEPROM memory is
mapped into Main Device Table 00h and Table 01h,
maintaining compatibility between both the
DS1858/DS1859 and the DS1852. The DS1856 also
features password protection equivalent to the DS1852,
further enhancing compatibility between the two.

Note 9:
All voltages are referenced to ground.
I/O pins of fast-mode devices must not obstruct the SDA and SCL lines if V
CC
is switched off.
SDA and SCL are connected to V
CC
and all other input signals are connected to well-defined logic levels.
Full scale is user programmable. The maximum voltage that the MON inputs read is approximately full scale, even if the volt-
age on the inputs is greater than full scale.
This voltage defines the maximum range of the analog-to-digital converter voltage, not the maximum V
CC
voltage.
Absolute linearity is the difference of measured value from expected value at DAC position. The expected value is a
straight line from measured minimum position to measured maximum position.
Relative linearity is the deviation of an LSB DAC setting change vs. the expected LSB change. The expected LSB change
is the slope of the straight line from measured minimum position to measured maximum position.
See the
Typical Operating Characteristics.
A fast-mode device can be used in a standard-mode system, but the requirement t
SU:DAT
> 250ns must then be met. This
is automatically the case if the device does not stretch the LOW period of the SCL signal. If such a device does stretch the
LOW period of the SCL signal, it must output the next data bit to the SDA line t
RMAX
+ t
SU:DAT
= 1000ns + 250ns = 1250ns
before the SCL line is released.

Note 10:
After this period, the first clock pulse is generated.
Note 11:
The maximum t
HD:DAT
only has to be met if the device does not stretch the LOW period (t
LOW
) of the SCL signal.
Note 12:
A device must internally provide a hold time of at least 300ns for the SDA signal (see the V
IH MIN
of the SCL signal) to
bridge the undefined region of the falling edge of SCL.
