Signal Conditioning/Calibration <strong>and</strong> Control <strong>Products</strong><br />
X9460 Audio Logarithmic Digitally-Controlled Potentiometers with Zero Amplitude Wiper Switching<br />
Product Highlights<br />
• X9460 is a monolithic CMOS IC that incorporating two logarithmically<br />
tapered non-volatile DCPs<br />
• The XDCPs consist <strong>of</strong> a string <strong>of</strong> 31 polycrystalline resistors (total<br />
33K) with switches to connect the wiper to any <strong>of</strong> the taps<br />
• A 2-wire interface controls wiper position, or an up/down control<br />
can be programmed to change both pots or a single pot one position<br />
at a time<br />
• The DCPs are normally connected as voltage dividers for audio<br />
control applications<br />
Key Features<br />
• Dual ±2.7 to ±5V supply operation<br />
• Wiper switching at zero wiper voltage<br />
• Low 3µA st<strong>and</strong>by current<br />
• Dual DCP control for left <strong>and</strong> right channels<br />
• 0 to -62dB volume control in 32 steps<br />
• -100dB crosstalk rejection<br />
• -120dB signal-noise ratio<br />
• Slave address<br />
Benefits<br />
• Fits wide variety <strong>of</strong> applications<br />
• Noise-free changes in volume<br />
• Ideal for portable audio products<br />
• Versatile stereo volume/fader/mute controls<br />
• Wide dynamic range<br />
• Qualifies for high fidelity equipment<br />
• Design for 2 to 8 channels using only 2-wire control<br />
Description<br />
The X9460 integrates two digitally controlled potentiometer<br />
(XDCP) on a monolithic CMOS integrated circuit. The two<br />
XDCPs can be used as stereo gain controls in audio applications.<br />
Read/Write operations can directly access each channel<br />
independently or both channels simultaneously. Increment/<br />
Decrement can adjust each channel independently or both<br />
channels simultaneously.<br />
The X9460 contains a zero amplitude wiper switching circuit<br />
that delays wiper changes until the next zero crossing <strong>of</strong> the<br />
audio signal.<br />
The digitally controlled potentiometer is implemented using 31<br />
polysilicon resistors in a log array. Between each <strong>of</strong> the resistors<br />
are tap points connected to the wiper terminal through<br />
switches. The XDCPs are designed to minimize wiper noise to<br />
avoid pops <strong>and</strong> clicks during audio volume transitions. The<br />
position <strong>of</strong> the wiper on the array is controlled by the user<br />
through the 2-wire serial bus interface.<br />
Power up reset the wiper to the mute position.<br />
