X9241AUVZ

Digital Potentiometers Overview

The X9241AUVZ is a quad digital potentiometer IC from the XDCP series, manufactured by Renesas Electronics. It integrates four independent potentiometers within a single 20-pin TSSOP package. Each channel offers 64 tap positions with linear taper characteristics and non-volatile memory to retain wiper settings during power cycles. The device operates on a single 5V supply and utilizes an I2C serial interface for control. Key electrical specifications include a resistance tolerance of ±20% and a typical temperature coefficient of ±300ppm/°C.

Digital Potentiometers Feature Summary

• Quad configuration with four independent 10kΩ potentiometers
• Non-volatile EEPROM storage retains wiper position after power loss
• I2C compatible serial interface for digital control
• 64 tap resolution per channel with linear taper

Digital Potentiometers Applications

• Audio volume and tone control circuits
• Programmable gain amplifier adjustments
• Voltage reference trimming
• System calibration and offset adjustment

Digital Potentiometers Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized distributors or direct manufacturer channels. Confirm RoHS compliance status as historical data indicates variations across production batches. Check for moisture sensitivity labeling prior to surface mount assembly processes.

Digital Potentiometers Selection Notes

Select this model when a compact quad digital potentiometer solution is required. Ensure the 10kΩ resistance value aligns with circuit impedance requirements. Verify that the I2C address configuration supports the system bus topology without conflicts.

Digital Potentiometers Part Context

This component belongs to the X9241A family of CMOS digital potentiometers. It serves as a solid-state alternative to mechanical potentiometers in applications requiring remote adjustment or automated calibration. The UV suffix denotes the 20-lead Thin Shrink Small Outline Package (TSSOP).

Digital Potentiometers Replacement Considerations
