CAT5118TBI-00GT3

Digital Potentiometers Overview

The CAT5118TBI-00GT3 is a digitally programmable potentiometer manufactured by onsemi. It features a single potentiometer configuration with 32 taps and a resistance value of 10 kOhms. The device utilizes a linear taper and operates within a supply voltage range of 2.7 V to 5.5 V, consuming 25 uA of current. It communicates via a 2-wire serial interface and employs volatile arc brush memory. The component is housed in an SOT-23-5 package, suitable for surface mount technology, and functions reliably across temperatures from -40°C to +85°C.

Digital Potentiometers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix '00' against official datasheets to confirm the exact resistance value, as standard variants often use '10'. Confirm availability status, as this series may be discontinued or subject to limited stock depending on the distributor region.

Digital Potentiometers Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact, low-power digital potentiometer is required for applications needing up/down control without non-volatile storage. Ensure the system design accounts for volatile memory behavior upon power loss.

Digital Potentiometers Part Context

This part belongs to the CAT5118 family of MiniPot Digitally Programmable Potentiometers. These devices are designed to replace mechanical potentiometers in space-constrained applications requiring digital control over resistance values.

Digital Potentiometers Replacement Considerations

Check for direct substitutes within the CAT5118 series or compatible 32-tap digital potentiometers from other manufacturers if this specific variant is unavailable.
