DESCRIPTION
The X9221A integrates two digitally controlled potenti-
ometers (XDCP) on a monolithic CMOS integrated
microcircuit.
The digitally controlled potentiometer is implemented
using 63 resistive elements in a series array. Between
each element are tap points connected to the wiper
terminal through switches. The position of the wiper on
the array is controlled by the user through the 2-wire
bus interface. Each potentiometer has associated with
it a volatile Wiper Counter Register (WCR) and 2 non-
volatile Data Registers (DR0:DR1) that can be directly
written to and read by the user. The contents of the
WCR controls the position of the wiper on the resistor
array through the switches. Power up recalls the con-
tents of DR0 to the WCR.
The XDCP can be used as a three-terminal potentiom-
eter or as a two-terminal variable resistor in a wide
variety of applications including control, parameter
adjustments, and signal processing.

PIN DESCRIPTIONS
Host Interface Pins
Serial Clock (SCL)
The SCL input is used to clock data into and out of the
X9221A.
Serial Data (SDA)
SDA is a bidirectional pin used to transfer data into
and out of the device. It is an open drain output and
may be wire-ORed with any number of open drain or
open collector outputs. An open drain output requires
the use of a pull-up resistor. For selecting typical val-
ues, refer to the guidelines for calculating typical val-
ues on the bus pull-up resistors graph.
Address
The Address inputs are used to set the least signifi-
cant 4 bits of the 8-bit slave address. A match in the
slave address serial data stream must be made with
the Address input in order to initiate communication
with the X9221A

PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION
The X9221A is a highly integrated microcircuit incor-
porating two resistor arrays, their associated registers
and counters and the serial interface logic providing
direct communication between the host and the XDCP
potentiometers.
Serial Interface
The X9221A supports a bidirectional bus oriented pro-
tocol. The protocol defines any device that sends data
onto the bus as a transmitter and the receiving device
as the receiver. The device controlling the transfer is a
master and the device being controlled is the slave.
The master will always initiate data transfers and pro-
vide the clock for both transmit and receive operations.
Therefore, the X9221A will be considered a slave
device in all applications.
Clock and Data Conventions
Data states on the SDA line can change only during
SCL LOW periods (t
LOW
). SDA state changes during
SCL HIGH are reserved for indicating start and stop
conditions.
Start Condition
All commands to the X9221A are preceded by the
start condition, which is a HIGH to LOW transition of
SDA while SCL is HIGH (t
HIGH
). The X9221A continu-
ously monitors the SDA and SCL lines for the start
condition, and will not respond to any command until
this condition is met.
Stop Condition
All communications must be terminated by a stop con-
dition, which is a LOW to HIGH transition of SDA while
SCL is HIGH.

Acknowledge
Acknowledge is a software convention used to provide
a positive handshake between the master and slave
devices on the bus to indicate the successful receipt of
data. The transmitting device, either the master or the
slave, will release the SDA bus after transmitting eight
bits. The master generates a ninth clock cycle and dur-
ing this period the receiver pulls the SDA line LOW to
acknowledge that it successfully received the eight bits
of data. See Figure 7.
The X9221A will respond with an acknowledge after
recognition of a start condition and its slave address
and once again after successful receipt of the com-
mand byte. If the command is followed by a data byte
the X9221A will respond with a final acknowledge.
Array Description
The X9221A is comprised of two resistor arrays. Each
array contains 63 discrete resistive segments that are
connected in series. The physical ends of each array
are equivalent to the fixed terminals of a mechanical
potentiometer (V
H
/R
H
and V
L
/R
L
inputs).
At both ends of each array and between each resistor
segment is a FET switch connected to the wiper (V
W
/
R
W
) output. Within each individual array only one
switch may be turned on at a time. These switches are
controlled by the Wiper Counter Register (WCR). The
six least significant bits of the WCR are decoded to
select, and enable, one of sixty-four switches.
The WCR may be written directly, or it can be changed
by transferring the contents of one of four associated
data registers into the WCR. These data registers and
the WCR can be read and written by the host system.
Device Addressing
Following a start condition the master must output the
address of the slave it is accessing. The most signifi-
cant four bits of the slave address are the device type
identifier (refer to Figure 1 below). For the X9221A this
is fixed as 0101[B].
Figure 1. Slave Address
The next four bits of the slave address are the device
address. The physical device address is defined by the
state of the A0-A3 inputs. The X9221A compares the
serial data stream with the address input state; a suc-
cessful compare of all four address bits is required for
the X9221A to respond with an acknowledge.
Acknowledge Polling
The disabling of the inputs, during the internal nonvola-
tile write operation, can be used to take advantage of
the typical 5ms EEPROM write cycle time. Once the
stop condition is issued to indicate the end of the non-
volatile write command the X9221A initiates the inter-
nal write cycle. ACK polling can be initiated
immediately. This involves issuing the start condition
followed by the device slave address. If the X9221A is
still busy with the write operation no ACK will be
returned. If the X9221A has completed the write opera-
tion an ACK will be returned and the master can then
proceed with the next operation.

Instruction Structure
The next byte sent to the X9221A contains the instruc-
tion and register pointer information. The four most
significant bits are the instruction. The next four bits
point to one of two pots and when applicable they
point to one of four associated registers. The format is
shown below in Figure 2.
Figure 2. Instruction Byte Format
t
The four high order bits define the instruction. The
sixth bit (P0) selects which one of the two potentiome-
ters is to be affected by the instruction. The last two
bits (R1 and R0) select one of the four registers that is
to be acted upon when a register oriented instruction
is issued.
Four of the nine instructions end with the transmission
of the instruction byte. The basic sequence is illus-
trated in Figure 3. These two-byte instructions
exchange data between the WCR and one of the data
registers. A transfer from a data register to a WCR is
essentially a write to a static RAM. The response of
the wiper to this action will be delayed t
STPWV
. A trans-
fer from WCR’s current wiper position to a data regis-
ter is a write to nonvolatile memory and takes a
minimum of t
WR
to complete. The transfer can occur
between either potentiometer and their associated
registers or it may occur between both of the potenti-
ometers and one of their associated registers.
Four instructions require a three-byte sequence to
complete. These instructions transfer data between
the host and the X9221A; either between the host and
one of the data registers or directly between the host
and the WCR. These instructions are: Read WCR,
read the current wiper position of the selected pot;
Write WCR, change current wiper position of the
selected pot; Read Data Register, read the contents of
the selected nonvolatile register; Write Data Register,
write a new value to the selected data register. The
sequence of operations is shown in Figure 4.
The Increment/Decrement command is different from
the other commands. Once the command is issued
and the X9221A has responded with an acknowledge,
the master can clock the selected wiper up and/or
down in one segment steps; thereby, providing a fine
tuning capability to the host. For each SCL clock pulse
(t
HIGH
) while SDA is HIGH, the selected wiper will
move one resistor segment towards the V
H
/R
H
termi-
nal. Similarly, for each SCL clock pulse while SDA is
LOW, the selected wiper will move one resistor seg-
ment towards the V
L
/R
L
terminal. A detailed illustration
of the sequence and timing for this operation are
shown in Figures 5 and 6 respectively.

DETAILED OPERATION
Both XDCP potentiometers share the serial interface
and share a common architecture. Each potentiometer
is comprised of a resistor array, a wiper counter regis-
ter and four data registers. A detailed discussion of the
register organization and array operation follows.
Wiper Counter Register
The X9221A contains two wiper counter registers
(WCR), one for each XDCP potentiometer. The WCR
can be envisioned as a 6-bit parallel and serial load
counter with its outputs decoded to select one of sixty-
four switches along its resistor array. The contents of
the WCR can be altered in four ways: it may be written
directly by the host via the Write WCR instruction
(serial load); it may be written indirectly by transferring
the contents of one of four associated data registers
via the XFR Data Register instruction (parallel load); it
can be modified one step at a time by the Increment/
Decrement instruction; finally, it is loaded with the con-
tents of its data register zero (R0) upon power-up.
The WCR is a volatile register; that is, its contents are
lost when the X9221A is powered-down. Although the
register is automatically loaded with the value in R0
upon power-up, it should be noted this may be different
from the value present at power-down.
Data Registers
Each potentiometer has four nonvolatile data registers.
These can be read or written directly by the host and
data can be transferred between any of the four data
registers and the WCR. It should be noted all opera-
tions changing data in one of these registers is a non-
volatile operation and will take a maximum of 10ms.
If the application does not require storage of multiple
settings for the potentiometer, these registers can be
used as regular memory locations that could possibly
store system parameters or user preference data.

as a potentiometer.
(2) Relative Linearity is utilized to determine the actual change in voltage between two successive tap positions when used as a poten-

POWER-UP TIMING
Notes: (5) This parameter is periodically sampled and not 100% tested.
(6) tPUR and tPUW are the delays required from the time VCC is stable until the specified operation can be initiated. These parameters
are periodically sampled and not 100% tested.
Power Up Requirements (Power up sequencing can affect correct recall of the wiper registers)
The preferred power-on sequence is as follows: First VCC, then the potentiometer pins. It is suggested that VCC
reach 90% of its final value before power is applied to the potentiometer pins. The VCC ramp rate specification
should be met, and any glitches or slope changes in the VCC line should be held to <100mV if possible. Also, VCC
should not reverse polarity by more than 0.5V.
