CAT5113VI-00-GT3

Digital Potentiometers Overview

The CAT5113VI-00-GT3 is a single digital potentiometer IC from onsemi, featuring a 100-tap linear taper resistor array with a total resistance of 100 kΩ. It operates on a single supply voltage ranging from 2.5 V to 6.0 V and draws an ultra-low standby current of 10 nA. The device utilizes a three-wire serial interface (CS, U/D, INC) for wiper control and includes non-volatile EEPROM storage to retain the wiper position during power-down. Packaged in an SOIC-8 surface-mount format, it serves as an electronic replacement for mechanical potentiometers.

Digital Potentiometers Feature Summary

• 100-position linear taper potentiometer with 100 kΩ nominal resistance
• Non-volatile EEPROM memory retains wiper setting after power loss
• Ultra-low standby current consumption of 10 nA
• Single supply operation compatible with 2.5 V to 6.0 V logic levels

Digital Potentiometers Applications

• Automated product calibration
• Remote control adjustments
• Offset, gain, and zero control circuits
• Tamper-proof calibrations
• Programmable analog functions

Digital Potentiometers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific package suffix 'V' corresponds to the SOIC-8 form factor and confirm the resistance code '00' indicates the 100 kΩ variant. Ensure the ordering suffix matches the required shipping configuration, such as tape and reel quantities, as specified in the manufacturer's documentation.

Digital Potentiometers Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-resolution 100-step adjustment is required compared to lower-tap alternatives like the CAT5110. The non-volatile feature makes it suitable for systems requiring persistent settings without external battery backup. Verify that the 100 kΩ resistance value aligns with the impedance requirements of the target circuit application.

Digital Potentiometers Part Context

This part belongs to the CAT5113 family of 100-tap digital potentiometers. The 'VI' designation identifies the industrial temperature range (-40°C to +85°C), while the 'V' suffix specifies the SOIC-8 package type. The '00' suffix denotes the 100 kΩ resistance value within the series.

Digital Potentiometers Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements include other CAT5113 variants with different resistance values or packages, such as CAT5113YI-00-GT3 (TSSOP-8) or CAT5113ZI-00-T3 (MSOP-8). For applications requiring fewer taps, the CAT5110 series offers 32-tap options.
