About this manual

The AD5243 and AD5248 are dual‑channel, 256‑position digital potentiometers offered in four end‑to‑end resistance values (2.5 kΩ, 10 kΩ, 50 kΩ, 100 kΩ). They operate from a single 2.7 V to 5.5 V supply, consume less than 6 µA, and feature a low temperature coefficient of 35 ppm/°C. The devices are supplied in a compact MSOP‑10 (3 mm × 4.9 mm) package and include optional address‑decode pins for multi‑device I²C buses.

The datasheet contains sections on electrical and timing characteristics, absolute maximum ratings, pin descriptions, typical performance curves, programming instructions, evaluation board details, and ordering information. It also provides a wiring diagram, pin‑out figures, and a summary of key specifications for quick reference.
