GENERAL OVERVIEW  
Figure 2. AD5173  
The AD5172/AD5173 are dual channel, 256-position, one-time  
programmable (OTP) digital potentiometers1 that employ fuse  
link technology to achieve memory retention of resistance  
setting. OTP is a cost-effective alternative to EEMEM for users  
who do not need to program the digital potentiometer setting in  
memory more than once. This device performs the same elec-  
tronic adjustment function as mechanical potentiometers or  
variable resistors with enhanced resolution, solid-state reliabil-  
ity, and superior low temperature coefficient performance.  
Unlike traditional OTP digital potentiometers, the AD5172/  
AD5173 have a unique temporary OTP overwrite feature that  
allows for new adjustments even after the fuse has been blown.  
However, the OTP setting is restored during subsequent power-  
up conditions. This feature allows users to treat these digital  
potentiometers as volatile potentiometers with a programmable  
preset.  
For applications that program the AD5172/AD5173 at the  
factory, Analog Devices offers device programming software  
running on Windows® NT®, 2000, and XP® operating systems.  
This software effectively replaces any external I2C controllers,  
thus enhancing the time-to-market of the users systems.  
The AD5172/AD5173 are programmed using a 2-wire, I2C  
compatible digital interface. Unlimited adjustments are allowed  
before permanently setting the resistance value. During OTP  
activation, a permanent blow fuse command freezes the wiper  
position (analogous to placing epoxy on a mechanical trimmer).  
1The terms digital potentiometer, VR, and RDAC are used interchangeably.

Typical specifications represent average readings at 27°C and VDD = 7 V.  
2 Resistor position nonlinearity error, R-INL, is the deviation from an ideal value measured between the maximum resistance and the minimum resistance wiper  
positions. R-DNL measures the relative step change from ideal between successive tap positions. Parts are guaranteed monotonic.  
3 VAB = VDD, Wiper (VW) = no connect.  
4 INL and DNL are measured at VW with the RDAC configured as a potentiometer divider similar to a voltage output D/A converter. VA = VDD and VB = ± V. DNL  
specification limits of ±ꢀ LSB maximum are guaranteed monotonic operating conditions.  
7 Resistor terminals A, B, W have no limitations on polarity with respect to each other.  
6 Guaranteed by design and not subject to production test.  
Measured at the A terminal. The A terminal is open circuited in shutdown mode.  
8 PDISS is calculated from (IDD × VDD). CMOS logic level inputs result in minimum power dissipation.  
9 All dynamic characteristics use VDD = 7 V.

ESD CAUTION  
ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4±±± V readily accumulate on  
the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection. Although this product features  
proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may occur on devices subjected to high energy  
electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD precautions are recommended to avoid performance  
degradation or loss of functionality.

The AD5172/AD5173 is a 256-position, digitally controlled  
variable resistor (VR) that employs fuse link technology to  
achieve memory retention of resistance setting.

An internal power-on preset places the wiper at midscale  
during power-on. If the OTP function has been activated, the  
device powers up at the user-defined permanent setting.  
Figure 36. Rheostat Mode Configuration  
Assuming a 10 kΩ part is used, the wipers first connection  
starts at the B terminal for data 0x00. Because there is a 50 Ω  
wiper contact resistance, such a connection yields a minimum  
of 100 Ω (2 × 50 Ω) resistance between terminals W and B. The  
second connection is the first tap point, which corresponds to  
139 Ω (RWB = RAB/256 + 2 × RW = 39 Ω + 2 × 50 Ω) for data  
0x01. The third connection is the next tap point, representing  
178 Ω (2 × 39 Ω + 2 × 50 Ω) for data 0x02, and so on. Each LSB  
data value increase moves the wiper up the resistor ladder until  
the last tap point is reached at 10,100 Ω (RAB + 2 × RW).  
ONE-TIME PROGRAMMING (OTP)  
Prior to OTP activation, the AD5172/AD5173 presets to mid-  
scale during initial power-on. After the wiper is set at the  
desired position, the resistance can be permanently set by  
programming the T bit high along with the proper coding (see  
Table 5 and Table 6). Note that fuse link technology requires 6 V  
to blow the internal fuses to achieve a given setting. The user is  
allowed only one attempt at blowing the fuses. Once program-  
ming is completed, the power supply voltage must be reduced to  
the normal operating range of 2.7 V to 5.5 V.

S
The device control circuit has two validation bits, E1 and E0,  
that can be read back to check the programming status (see  
Table 7). Users should always read back the validation bits to  
ensure that the fuses are properly blown. After the fuses have  
been blown, all fuse latches are enabled upon subsequent  
power-on; therefore, the output corresponds to the stored  
setting. Figure 35 shows a detailed functional block diagram.

the wiper terminal, plus the B terminal contact. The 8-bit data  
in the RDAC latch is decoded to select one of the 256 possible

output resistance between W and B is  
Typical device-to-device matching is process lot dependent and  
may vary by up to 30ꢀ. Because the resistance element is pro-  
cessed using thin film technology, the change in RAB with  
temperature has a very low 35 ppm/°C temperature coefficient.

where D is the decimal equivalent of the binary code loaded in  
the 8-bit RDAC register, RAB is the end-to-end resistance, and  
RW is the wiper resistance contributed by the on resistance of  
the internal switch.  
The digital potentiometer easily generates a voltage divider at  
wiper-to-B and wiper-to-A proportional to the input voltage at  
A-to-B. Unlike the polarity of VDD to GND, which must be posi-  
tive, voltage across A-B, W-A, and W-B can be at either polarity.  
In summary, if RAB = 10 kΩ and the A terminal is open-  
circuited, the output resistance RWB is set for the RDAC latch  
codes, as shown in Table 5.

Zero-Scale (Wiper Contact Resistance)  
If ignoring the effect of the wiper resistance for approximation,  
connecting the A terminal to 5 V and the B terminal to ground  
produces an output voltage at the wiper-to-B starting at 0 V up  
to 1 LSB less than 5 V. Each LSB of voltage is equal to the  
voltage applied across terminal AB divided by the 256 positions  
of the potentiometer divider. The general equation defining the  
output voltage at VW with respect to ground for any valid input  
voltage applied to terminals A and B is  
Note that in the zero-scale condition, a finite wiper resistance of  
100 Ω is present. Care should be taken to limit the current flow  
between W and B in this state to a maximum pulse current of  
no more than 20 mA. Otherwise, degradation or possible  
destruction of the internal switch contact can occur.  
Similar to the mechanical potentiometer, the resistance of the  
RDAC between the wiper W and terminal A also produces a  
digitally controlled complementary resistance, RWA. When these  
terminals are used, the B terminal can be opened. Setting the  
resistance value for RWA starts at a maximum value of resistance  
and decreases as the data loaded in the latch increases in value.

For RAB = 10 kΩ and the B terminal open-circuited, the

as shown in Table 6.  
Operation of the digital potentiometer in the divider mode  
results in a more accurate operation over temperature. Unlike  
the rheostat mode, the output voltage is dependent mainly on  
the ratio of the internal resistors RWA and RWB and not the abso-  
lute values. Thus, the temperature drift reduces to 15 ppm/°C.

ESD PROTECTION  
POWER SUPPLY CONSIDERATIONS  
All digital inputs—SDA, SCL, AD0, and AD1— are protected  
with a series input resistor and parallel Zener ESD structures, as  
shown in Figure 39 and Figure 40.  
To minimize the package pin count, both the one-time pro-  
gramming and normal operating voltage supplies are applied to  
the same VDD terminal of the AD5172/AD5173. The AD5172/  
AD5173 employ fuse link technology that requires 6 V to blow  
the internal fuses to achieve a given setting. The user is allowed  
only one attempt at blowing the fuses. Once programming is  
completed, power supply voltage must be reduced to the normal  
2.7 V to 5.5 V operating range. Such dual voltage requirements  
require isolation between the supplies. The fuse programming  
supply (either an on-board regulator or rack-mount power sup-  
ply) must be rated at 6 V and must be able to provide a 100 mA  
transient current for 400 ms for successful one-time program-  
ming. Once programming is complete, the 6 V supply must be  
removed to allow normal operation at 2.7 V to 5.5 V at regular  
microamp current levels. Figure 42 shows the simplest imple-  
mentation using a jumper. This approach saves one voltage  
supply, but draws additional current and requires manual  
configuration.

Because the ESD protection diodes limit the voltage compliance  
at terminals A, B, and W (see Figure 41), it is important to  
power VDD/GND before applying any voltage to terminals A, B,  
and W. Otherwise, the diode will be forward biased such that  
VDD is powered unintentionally and may affect the rest of the  
users circuit. The ideal power-up sequence is GND, VDD, the  
digital inputs, and then VA/VB/VW. The relative order of  
powering VA, VB, VW, and the digital inputs is not important as  
long as they are powered after VDD/GND.

Poor PCB layout introduces parasitics that may affect the fuse  
programming. Therefore, it is recommended to add a 1 µF  
tantalum capacitor in parallel with a 1 nF ceramic capacitor as  
close as possible to the VDD pin. These capacitors help ensure  
OTP programming success by providing proper current densi-  
ties. This combination of capacitor values provides both a fast  
response for high frequency transients and a larger supply of  
current for extended spikes. Typically, C1 minimizes any  
transient disturbances and low frequency ripple, while C2  
reduces high frequency noise.

The 6 V supply must be removed once OTP is completed.  
LAYOUT CONSIDERATIONS  
It is a good practice to employ compact, minimum lead length  
layout design. The leads to the inputs should be as direct as  
possible with a minimum conductor length. Ground paths  
should have low resistance and low inductance.  
For users who operate their systems at 2.7 V, use of the  
bidirectional low threshold P-Ch MOSFETs is recommended  
for the supplys isolation. As shown in Figure 44, this assumes  
that the 2.7 V system voltage is applied first, and that the P1 and  
P2 gates are pulled to ground, thus turning on P1 and  
subsequently P2. As a result, VDD of the AD5172/AD5173  
approaches 2.7 V. When the AD5172/AD5173 setting is found,  
the factory tester applies the 6 V to VDD; the 6 V is also applied  
to the gates of P1 and P2 to turn them off. The OTP command  
is executed at this time to program the AD5172/AD5173; the  
2.7 V source is therefore protected. Once the OTP is completed,  
the tester withdraws the 6 V and the AD5172/AD5173s setting  
is fixed permanently.  
Note that the digital ground should also be joined remotely to  
the analog ground at one point to minimize the ground bounce.

AD5172/AD5173 achieves the OTP function through blowing  
internal fuses. Users should always apply the 6 V one-time  
program voltage requirement at the first program command.  
Failure to comply with this requirement may lead to the change  
of fuse structures, rendering programming inoperable.

EVALUATION SOFTWARE/HARDWARE  
Figure 46. AD5172/AD5173 Computer Software Interface  
There are two ways of controlling the AD5172/AD5173. Users  
can either program the devices with computer software or with  
external I2C controllers.  
The AD5172/AD5173 starts at midscale after power-up prior to  
OTP programming. To increment or decrement the resistance,  
the user may simply move the scrollbars on the left. To write  
any specific value, the user should use the bit pattern in the  
upper screen and press the Run button. The format of writing  
data to the device is shown in Table 7. Once the desired setting  
is found, the user may press the Program Permament button to  
blow the internal fuse links.  
SOFTWARE PROGRAMMING  
Due to the advantages of the one-time programmable feature,  
users may consider programming the device in the factory  
before shipping the final product to end-users. ADI offers a  
device programming software that can be implemented in the  
factory on PCs running Windows 95 or later. As a result,  
external controllers are not required, which significantly  
reduces development time. The program is an executable file  
that does not require any programming languages or user  
programming skills. It is easy to set up and to use. Figure 46  
shows the software interface. The software can be downloaded  
from www.analog.com.  
To read the validation bits and data out from the device, the  
user simply presses the Read button. The format of the read bits  
is shown in Table 8.  
To apply the device programming software in the factory, users  
must modify a parallel port cable and configure Pins 2, 3, 15,  
and 25 for SDA_write, SCL, SDA_read, and DGND, respectively,  
for the control signals (Figure 47). Users should also lay out the  
PCB of the AD5172/AD5173 with SCL and SDA pads, as shown  
in Figure 48, such that pogo pins can be inserted for factory  
programming.

AD5172/AD5173  
I2C COMPATIBLE 2-WIRE SERIAL BUS  
The 2-wire I2C serial bus protocol operates as follows:  
After acknowledging the instruction byte, the last byte in  
write mode is the data byte. Data is transmitted over the  
serial bus in sequences of nine clock pulses (eight data bits  
followed by an acknowledge bit). The transitions on the  
SDA line must occur during the low period of SCL and  
remain stable during the high period of SCL (see  
Figure 49).  
1. The master initiates data transfer by establishing a START  
condition, which is when a high-to-low transition on the  
SDA line occurs while SCL is high (see Figure 50 and  
Figure 51). The following byte is the slave address byte,  
which consists of the slave address followed by an R/ bit  
W
(this bit determines whether data is read from or written to  
the slave device). The AD5172 has a fixed slave address  
byte, whereas the AD5173 has two configurable address  
bits, AD0 and AD1 (see Figure 50 and Figure 51).  
3. In the read mode, the data byte follows immediately after  
the acknowledgment of the slave address byte. Data is  
transmitted over the serial bus in sequences of nine clock  
pulses (a slight difference from the write mode, where there  
are eight data bits followed by an acknowledge bit). Simi-  
larly, the transitions on the SDA line must occur during the  
low period of SCL and remain stable during the high  
period of SCL (see Figure 52 and Figure 53).  
The slave whose address corresponds to the transmitted  
address responds by pulling the SDA line low during the  
ninth clock pulse (this is termed the acknowledge bit). At  
this stage, all other devices on the bus remain idle while the  
selected device waits for data to be written to or read from  
Note that the channel of interest is the one that is  
previously selected in the write mode. In the case where  
users need to read the RDAC values of both channels, they  
must program the first channel in the write mode and then  
change to the read mode to read the first channel value.  
After that, the user must change back to the write mode  
with the second channel selected and read the second  
channel value in the read mode. It is not necessary for users  
to issue the Frame 3 data byte in the write mode for subse-  
quent readback operation. Refer to Figure 52 and Figure 53  
for the programming format.  
its serial register. If the R/ bit is high, the master reads  
from the slave device. If the R/ bit is low, the master  
W
writes to the slave device.  
W
2. In the write mode, the second byte is the instruction byte.  
The first bit (MSB) of the instruction byte is the RDAC  
subaddress select bit. A logic low selects channel 1; a logic  
high selects channel 2.  
The second MSB, SD, is a shutdown bit. A logic high causes  
an open circuit at terminal A while shorting the wiper to  
terminal B. This operation yields almost 0 Ω in rheostat  
mode or 0 V in potentiometer mode. It is important to note  
that the shutdown operation does not disturb the contents  
of the register. When brought out of shutdown, the previ-  
ous setting is applied to the RDAC. Also, during shutdown,  
new settings can be programmed. When the part is  
returned from shutdown, the corresponding VR setting is  
applied to the RDAC.  
Following the data byte, the validation byte contains two  
validation bits, E0 and E1. These bits signify the status of  
the one-time programming (see Figure 52 and Figure 53).  
4. After all data bits have been read or written, a STOP  
condition is established by the master. A STOP condition is  
defined as a low-to-high transition on the SDA line while  
SCL is high. In write mode, the master pulls the SDA line  
high during the 10th clock pulse to establish a STOP  
condition (see Figure 50 and Figure 51). In read mode, the  
master issues a No Acknowledge for the ninth clock pulse  
(i.e., the SDA line remains high). The master then brings  
the SDA line low before the 10th clock pulse, which goes  
high to establish a STOP condition (see Figure 52 and  
Figure 53).  
The third MSB, T, is the OTP programming bit. A logic  
high blows the poly fuses and programs the resistor setting  
permanently.  
The fourth MSB must always be at Logic 0.  
The fifth MSB, OW, is an overwrite bit. When raised to a  
logic high, OW allows the RDAC setting to be changed  
even after the internal fuses have been blown. However,  
once OW is returned to a logic zero, the position of the  
RDAC returns to the setting prior to overwrite. Because  
OW is not static, if the device is powered off and on, the  
RDAC presets to midscale or to the setting at which the  
fuses were blown, depending on whether or not the fuses  
have been permanently set already.  
A repeated write function gives the user flexibility to update the  
RDAC output a number of times after addressing and instruc-  
ting the part only once. For example, after the RDAC has  
acknowledged its slave address and instruction bytes in the  
write mode, the RDAC output is updated on each successive  
byte. If different instructions are needed, the write/read mode  
has to start again with a new slave address, instruction, and data  
byte. Similarly, a repeated read function of the RDAC is also  
allowed.  
The remainder of the bits in the instruction byte are don’t  
cares (see Figure 50 and Figure 51).

Figure 54 shows four AD5173s on the same serial bus. Each has  
a different slave address because the states of their AD0 and  
AD1 pins are different. This allows each device on the bus to be  
written to or read from independently. The master device  
output bus line drivers are open-drain pull-downs in a fully I2C  
compatible interface.
