The MAX5460–MAX5468 linear-taper digital potentiometersperform the same function as a mechanical potentiometeror a variable resistor. These devices consist of afixed resistor and a wiper contact with 32-tap points thatare digitally controlled through a 2-wire serial interface.The MAX5462/MAX5465/MAX5468 are configured aspotentiometers. The rest of the devices in this family areconfigured as variable resistors. See Pin Configurationsfor part functionality.Three resistance values are available: 10kΩ (MAX5466/MAX5467/MAX5468), 50kΩ (MAX5463/MAX5464/MAX5465), and 100kΩ (MAX5460/MAX5461/MAX5462).The MAX5460–MAX5465 (100kΩ and 50kΩ) are availablein space-saving 5-pin and 6-pin SC70 packages.The MAX5466/MAX5467/MAX5468 (10kΩ) are availablein 5-pin and 6-pin SOT23 packages.ApplicationsGain AdjustmentLCD Screen AdjustmentLine Impedance MatchingMechanical Potentiometer ReplacementVolume Control
