Analog Devices AD5241/AD5242 Digital Potentiometer Products Handbook
The AD5241 and AD5242 are 256‑position, I²C‑compatible digital potentiometers offering single‑ or dual‑channel operation. They provide programmable resistance values, extra logic outputs, and a self‑contained shutdown feature, suitable for multimedia, communications, instrumentation, and voltage‑to‑current conversion applications.
The handbook includes detailed specifications such as 8‑bit resolution, 30 ppm/°C temperature coefficient, supply ranges of 2.7 V–5.5 V, and operating temperatures from –40 °C to +105 °C. It also contains functional block diagrams, pin descriptions, timing diagrams, and typical performance curves for various package options.
