Negative Power-Supply Input. For single-supply operation, connect V

SS

to GND. For dual-

supply operation, -2.5V

SPI/UD

Interface-Mode Select. Select serial SPI interface when SPI/UD = 1. Select serial up/down
interface when SPI/UD = 0.

Serial SPI Interface Data Input (SPI/UD = 1)

DIN(U/D)

Up/Down Control Input (SPI/UD = 0). With DIN(U/D) low, a high-to-low SCLK(INC) transition
decrements the wiper position. With DIN(U/D) high, a high-to-low SCLK(INC) transition
increments the wiper position.

Serial SPI Interface Clock Input (SPI/UD = 1)

11

SCLK(INC)

Wiper-Increment Control Input (SPI/UD = 0). With CS low, the wiper position moves in the
direction determined by the state of DIN(U/D) on a high-to-low transition.
