FEATURES
Ultra-lowpower consumption, quiet, pumpless
design
Two digitally controlled, 256-position
potentiometers
Serial port provides means for setting and
reading both potentiometers
Resistors can be connected in series to
provide increased total resistance
20-pin TSSOP, 16-pin SOIC, and 14-pin DIP
packages are available.
Resistive elements are temperature
compensated to
±0.3 LSB relative linearity

DESCRIPTION
The DS1868 Dual Digital Potentiometer Chip consists of two digitally controlled solid-state
potentiometers. Each potentiometer is composed of 256 resistive sections. Between each resistive section
and both ends of the potentiometer are tap points which are accessible to the wiper. The position of the
