Between • Power supplies each element are tap points connected to the wiper —V terminal through switches. The position of the wiper on CC = 2.7V to 5.5V—V+ = 2.7V to 5.5V the array is controlled by the user through the 2-wire —V– = -2.7V to -5.5V bus interface. Each potentiometer has associated with • Low power CMOS it a volatile Wiper Counter Register (WCR) and 4 —Standby current < 1µA nonvolatile Data Registers (DR0:DR3) that can be —Ideal for Battery Operated Applications directly written to and read by the user.
