The AD5170 is a 256-position, two-time programmable, digital potentiometer 1 that employs fuse link technology, giving users two opportunities to permanently program the resistance setting. For users who do not need to program the digital potentiometer setting in memory more than once, the OTP feature is a cost-effective alternative to EEMEM. The AD5170 performs the same electronic adjustment function as mechanical potentiometers or variable resistors with enhanced resolution, solid-state reliability, and superior low temperature coefficient performance.
