The AD5241 / AD52421 provide a single-/dual-channel, 256-position, digitally controlled variable resistor (VR) device. These devices perform the same electronic adjustment function as a potentiometer, trimmer, or variable resistor. Each VR offers a completely programmable value of resistance between the A terminal and the wiper, or the B terminal and the wiper. For the AD5242, the fixed A-to-B terminal resistance of 10 kΩ, 100 kΩ, or 1 MΩ has a 1% channel-to-channel matching tolerance. The nominal temperature coefficient of both parts is 30 ppm/°C.Wiper position programming defaults to midscale at system power on. When powered, the VR wiper position is programmed by an I2C-compatible, 2-wire serial data interface. Both parts have two extra programmable logic outputs available that enable users to drive digital loads, logic gates, LED drivers, and analog switches in their system.The AD5241 / AD5242 are available in surface-mount, 14-lead SOIC and 16-lead SOIC packages and, for ultracompact solutions, 14-lead TSSOP and 16-lead TSSOP packages. All parts are guaranteed to operate over the extended temperature range of −40°C to +105°C.APPLICATIONS Multimedia, video, and audio Communications Mechanical potentiometer replacement Instrumentation: gain, offset adjustment Programmable voltage-to-current conversion Line impedance matching

The AD5243 and AD5248 provide a compact 3 mm × 4.9 mmpackaged solution for dual, 256-position adjustment applications.The AD5243 performs the same electronic adjustment functionas a 3-terminal mechanical potentiometer, and the AD5248performs the same adjustment function as a 2-terminal variableresistor. Available in four end-to-end resistance values (2.5 kΩ,10 kΩ, 50 kΩ, and 100 kΩ), these low temperature coefficientdevices are ideal for high accuracy and stability-variableresistance adjustments. The wiper settings are controllablethrough the I2C-compatible digital interface. The AD5248 hasextra package address decode pins, AD0 and AD1, allowingmultiple parts to share the same I2C, 2-wire bus on a PCB. Theresistance between the wiper and either endpoint of the fixedresistor varies linearly with respect to the digital code transferred into the RDAC latch. (The terms digital potentiometer, VR,and RDAC are used interchangeably.)Operating from a 2.7 V to 5.5 V power supply and consumingless than 6 µA allows the AD5243/AD5248 to be used inportable battery-operated applications.For applications that program the AD5243/AD5248 at thefactory, Analog Devices, Inc., offers device programmingsoftware running on Windows® NT/2000/XP operating systems.This software effectively replaces the need for external I2Ccontrollers, which in turn enhances the time to market ofsystems.

The AD539 is a low distortion analog multiplier having two identical signal channels (Y1 and Y2), with a common X input providing linear control of gain. Excellent ac characteristics up to video frequencies and a −3 dB bandwidth of over 60 MHz are provided. Although intended primarily for applications where speed is important, the circuit exhibits good static accuracy in computational applications. Scaling is accurately determined by a band-gap voltage reference and all critical parameters are laser-trimmed during manufacture.The full bandwidth can be realized over most of the gain range using the AD539 with simple resistive loads of up to 100 Ω. Output voltage is restricted to a few hundred millivolts under these conditions. The two channels provide flexibility. In single-channel applications, they can be used in parallel to double the output current, in series to achieve a square-law gain function with a control range of over 100 dB, or differentially to reduce distortion. Alternatively, they can be used independently, as in audio stereo applications, with low crosstalk between channels. Voltage-controlled filters and oscillators using the state-variable approach are easily designed, taking advantage of the dual channels and common control. The AD539 can also be configured as a divider with signal bandwidths up to 15 MHz.Power consumption is only 135 mW using the recommended ±5 V supplies. The AD539 is available in three versions: the J and K grades are specified for 0 to 70°C operation and S grade is guaranteed over the extended range of −55°C to +125°C. The J and K grades are available in either a hermetic ceramic SBDIP (D-16) or a low cost PDIP (N-16), whereas the S grade is available in ceramic SBDIP (D-16) or LCC (E-20-1). The S grade is available in MIL-STD-883 and Standard Military Drawing (DESC) Number 5962-8980901EA versions.APPLICATIONS Precise high bandwidth AGC and VCA systems Voltage-controlled filters Video signal processing High speed analog division Automatic signal-leveling Square-law gain/loss control

The AD5426 / AD5432 / AD5443 are CMOS 8-, 10-, and 12-bit current output digital-to-analog converters (DACs), respectively. These devices operate from a 2.5 V to 5.5 V power supply, making them suitable for battery-powered applications and many other applications.These DACs use a double buffered, 3-wire serial interface that is compatible with SPI, QSPI™, MICROWIRE™, and most DSP interface standards. In addition, a serial data out pin (SDO) allows for daisy-chaining when multiple packages are used. Data readback allows the user to read the contents of the DAC register via the SDO pin. On power-up, the internal shift register and latches are filled with 0s and the DAC outputs are at zero scale.As a result of manufacturing on a CMOS submicron process, the parts offer excellent 4-quadrant multiplication characteristics with large signal multiplying bandwidths of 10 MHz. The applied external reference input voltage, VREF, determines the full-scale output current. An integrated feedback resistor, RFB, provides temperature tracking and full-scale voltage output when combined with an external current to voltage precision amplifier.The AD5426 / AD5432 / AD5443 DACs are available in small, 10-lead MSOP packages.The EVAL-AD5443SDZ / EVAL-AD5446SDZ / EVAL-AD5453SDZ evaluation board is available for evaluating DAC performance.

The AD580 is a three-terminal, low cost, temperature compensated, bandgap voltage reference which provides a fixed 2.5 V output for inputs between 4.5 V and 30 V. A unique combination of advanced circuit design and laser-wafer trimmed thin-film resistors provide the AD580 with an initial tolerance of ±0.4%, a temperature stability of better than 10 ppm/°C and long-term stability of better than 250µV. In addition, the low quiescent current drain of 1.5 mA max offers a clear advantage over classical Zener techniques.The AD580 is recommended as a stable reference for all 8-, 10- and 12-bit D-to-A converters that require an external reference. In addition, the wide input range of the AD580 allows operation with 5 volt logic supplies making the AD580 ideal for digital panel meter applications or whenever only a single logic power supply is available. The AD580J, K, L and M are specified for operation over the 0°C to +70°C temperature range; the AD580S, T and U are specified for operation over the extended temperature range of -55°C to +125°C.

The AD581 is a 3-pin, temperature compensated, monolithic, band gap voltage reference that provides a precise 10.00 V output from an unregulated input level ranging from 12 V to 30 V. Laser wafer trimming (LWT) is used to trim both the initial error at +25°C as well as the temperature coefficient, resulting in high precision performance previously available only in expensive hybrids or oven regulated modules. The 5 mV initial error tolerance and 5 ppm/°C guaranteed temperature coefficient of the AD581L is available in a monolithic voltage reference.The band gap circuit design used in the AD581 offers several advantages over classical Zener breakdown diode techniques. Most important, no external components are required to achieve full accuracy and significant stability to low power systems. In addition, total supply current to the device, including the output buffer amplifier (which can supply up to 10 mA) is typically 750 μA. The long-term stability of the band gap design is equivalent to selected Zener reference diodes.The AD581 is recommended for use as a reference for 8-, 10- or 12-bit digital-to-analog converters (DACs) that require an external precision reference. The device is also ideal for all types of analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) up to 14-bit accuracy, either successive approximation or integrating designs, and can generally offer better performance than that provided by standard self-contained references.The AD581J, K, and L are specified for operation from 0°C to +70°C; the AD581S, T, and U are specified for the -55°C to +125°C range. All grades are packaged in a hermetically sealed three-terminal TO-5 metal can.PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS Laser trimming of both initial accuracy and temperature coefficient results in very low errors over temperature without the use of external components. The AD581L has a maximum deviation from 10.000 V of ±7.25 mV from 0°C to 70°C, whereas the AD581U guarantees ±15 mV maximum total error without external trims from −55°C to +125°C. Because the laser trimming is done on the wafer prior to separation into individual chips, the AD581 is extremely valuable to hybrid designers for its ease of use, lack of required external trims, and inherent high performance. The AD581 can also be operated in a 2-pin Zener mode to provide a precision −10 V reference with just one external resistor to the unregulated supply. The performance in this mode is nearly equal to that of the standard 3-pin configuration. Advanced circuit design using the band gap concept allows the AD581 to give full performance with an unregulated input voltage down to 13 V. With an external resistor, the device operates with a supply as low as 11.4 V. 5. The AD581 is available in versions compliant with MILSTD-883. Refer to the military datasheet for detailed specifications.

The charge pump output voltages may also be used to power external circuitry which requires dual supplies.The RS-232 channels are suitable for communications rates up to 100 kHz and the RS-422 channels are suitable for high speed communications up to 5 MHz. The RS-422 transmitter complementaryoutputs are closely matched and feature low timing skew between the complementary outputs. This is often an essential requirement to meet tight system timing specifications.All inputs feature ESD protection, all driver outputs feature high source and sink current capability and are internally protected against short circuits on the outputs. An epitaxial layer is used to guard against latch-up.The part is available in a 24-lead SOIC and 24-pin plastic DIP package.Applications DTE-DCE Interface Packet Switching Local Area Networks Data Concentration Data Multiplexers Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN)
