CAT5241
Quad Digital
Potentiometer (POT)
with 64 Taps
and I2C Interface
Description
The CAT5241 is four Digital POTs integrated with control logic and
16 bytes of NVRAM memory. Each digital POT consists of a series of
63 resistive elements connected between two externally accessible end
points. The tap points between each resistive element are connected to
the wiper outputs with CMOS switches. A separate 6-bit control
register (WCR) independently controls the wiper tap switches for each
digital POT. Associated with each wiper control register are four 6-bit
non-volatile memory data registers (DR) used for storing up to four
wiper settings. Writing to the wiper control register or any of the
non-volatile data registers is via a I2C serial bus. On power-up, the
contents of the first data register (DR0) for each of the four
potentiometers is automatically loaded into its respective wiper
control register (WCR).
The CAT5241 can be used as a potentiometer or as a two terminal,
variable resistor. It is intended for circuit level or system level
adjustments in a wide variety of applications.

Pin Descriptions
SCL: Serial Clock
The CAT5241 serial clock input pin is used to clock all
data transfers into or out of the device.
SDA: Serial Data
The CAT5241 bidirectional serial data pin is used to
transfer data into and out of the device. The SDA pin is an
open drain output and can be wire-OR’d with the other open
drain or open collector outputs.
A0, A1, A2, A3: Device Address Inputs
These inputs set the device address when addressing
multiple devices. A total of sixteen devices can be addressed
on a single bus. A match in the slave address must be made
with the address input in order to initiate communication
with the CAT5241.
RH, RL: Resistor End Points
The four sets of RH and RL pins are equivalent to the
terminal connections on a mechanical potentiometer.
RW: Wiper
The four RW pins are equivalent to the wiper terminal of
a mechanical potentiometer.
Device Operation
The CAT5241 is four resistor arrays integrated with I2C
serial interface logic, four 6-bit wiper control registers and
sixteen 6-bit, non-volatile memory data registers. Each
resistor array contains 63 separate resistive elements
connected in series. The physical ends of each array are
equivalent to the fixed terminals of a mechanical
potentiometer (RH and RL). RH and RL are symmetrical and
may be interchanged. The tap positions between and at the
ends of the series resistors are connected to the output wiper
terminals (RW) by a CMOS transistor switch. Only one tap
point for each potentiometer is connected to its wiper
terminal at a time and is determined by the value of the wiper
control register. Data can be read or written to the wiper
control registers or the non-volatile memory data registers
via the I2C bus. Additional instructions allow data to be
transferred between the wiper control registers and each
respective potentiometers non-volatile data registers. Also,
the device can be instructed to operate in an
“increment/decrement” mode.

Serial Bus Protocol
The following defines the features of the I2C bus protocol:
1. Data transfer may be initiated only when the bus is
not busy.
2. During a data transfer, the data line must remain
stable whenever the clock line is high. Any
changes in the data line while the clock is high
will be interpreted as a START or STOP condition.
The device controlling the transfer is a master, typically a
processor or controller, and the device being controlled is the
slave. The master will always initiate data transfers and
provide the clock for both transmit and receive operations.
Therefore, the CAT5241 will be considered a slave device
in all applications.
START Condition
The START Condition precedes all commands to the
device, and is defined as a HIGH to LOW transition of SDA
when SCL is HIGH. The CAT5241 monitors the SDA and
SCL lines and will not respond until this condition is met.
STOP Condition
A LOW to HIGH transition of SDA when SCL is HIGH
determines the STOP condition. All operations must end
with a STOP condition.
Device Addressing
The bus Master begins a transmission by sending a
START condition. The Master then sends the address of the
particular slave device it is requesting. The four most
significant bits of the 8-bit slave address are fixed as 0101
for the CAT5241 (see Figure 6). The next four significant
bits (A3, A2, A1, A0) are the device address bits and define
which device the Master is accessing. Up to sixteen devices
may be individually addressed by the system. Typically,
+5 V and ground are hard-wired to these pins to establish the
device’s address.
After the Master sends a START condition and the slave
address byte, the CAT5241 monitors the bus and responds
with an acknowledge (on the SDA line) when its address
matches the transmitted slave address.
Acknowledge
After a successful data transfer, each receiving device is
required to generate an acknowledge. The Acknowledging
device pulls down the SDA line during the ninth clock cycle,
signaling that it received the 8 bits of data.
The CAT5241 responds with an acknowledge after
receiving a START condition and its slave address. If the
device has been selected along with a write operation, it
responds with an acknowledge after receiving each 8-bit
byte.
When the CAT5241 is in a READ mode it transmits 8 bits
of data, releases the SDA line, and monitors the line for an
acknowledge. Once it receives this acknowledge, the
CAT5241 will continue to transmit data. If no acknowledge
is sent by the Master, the device terminates data transmission
and waits for a STOP condition.

Write Operation
In the Write mode, the Master device sends the START
condition and the slave address information to the Slave
device. After the Slave generates an acknowledge, the
Master sends the instruction byte that defines the requested
operation of CAT5241. The instruction byte consist of a
four-bit opcode followed by two register selection bits and
two pot selection bits. After receiving another acknowledge
from the Slave, the Master device transmits the data to be
written into the selected register. The CAT5241
acknowledges once more and the Master generates the
STOP condition, at which time if a non-volatile data register
is being selected, the device begins an internal programming
cycle to non-volatile memory. While this internal cycle is in
progress, the device will not respond to any request from the
Master device.
Acknowledge Polling
The disabling of the inputs can be used to take advantage
of the typical write cycle time. Once the stop condition is
issued to indicate the end of the host’s write operation, the
CAT5241 initiates the internal write cycle. ACK polling can
be initiated immediately. This involves issuing the start
condition followed by the slave address. If the CAT5241 is
still busy with the write operation, no ACK will be returned.
If the CAT5241 has completed the write operation, an ACK
will be returned and the host can then proceed with the next
instruction operation.

Instructions and Register Description
Slave Address Byte
The first byte sent to the CAT5241 from the master/
processor is called the Slave Address Byte. The most
significant four bits of the slave address are a device type
identifier. These bits for the CAT5241 are fixed at 0101[B]
(refer to Figure 8).
The next four bits, A3 A0, are the internal slave address
and must match the physical device address which is defined
by the state of the A3 A0 input pins for the CAT5241 to
successfully continue the command sequence. Only the
device which slave address matches the incoming device
address sent by the master executes the instruction. The A3
A0 inputs can be actively driven by CMOS input signals
or tied to VCC or VSS.
Instruction Byte
The next byte sent to the CAT5241 contains the
instruction and register pointer information. The four most
significant bits used provide the instruction opcode I [3:0].
The P1 and P0 bits point to one of four Wiper Control
Registers. The least two significant bits, R1 and R0, point to
one of the four data registers of each associated
potentiometer. The format is shown in Figure 9.

Wiper Control and Data Registers
Wiper Control Register (WCR)
The CAT5241 contains four 6-bit Wiper Control
Registers, one for each potentiometer. The Wiper Control
Register output is decoded to select one of 64 switches along
its resistor array. The contents of the WCR can be altered in
four ways: it may be written by the host via Write Wiper
Control Register instruction; it may be written by
transferring the contents of one of four associated Data
Registers via the XFR Data Register instruction, it can be
modified one step at a time by the Increment/decrement
instruction (see Instruction section for more details).
Finally, it is loaded with the content of its data register zero
(DR0) upon power-up.
The Wiper Control Register is a volatile register that loses
its contents when the CAT5241 is powered-down. Although
the register is automatically loaded with the value in DR0
upon power-up, this may be different from the value present
at power-down.
Data Registers (DR)
Each potentiometer has four 6-bit non-volatile Data
Registers. These can be read or written directly by the host.
Data can also be transferred between any of the four Data
Registers and the associated Wiper Control Register. Any
data changes in one of the Data Registers is a non-volatile
operation and will take a maximum of 5 ms.
If the application does not require storage of multiple
settings for the potentiometer, the Data Registers can be used
as standard memory locations for system parameters or user
preference data.
Instructions
Four of the nine instructions are three bytes in length.
These instructions are:
Read Wiper Control Register – read the current wiper
position of the selected potentiometer in the WCR
Write Wiper Control Register – change current wiper
position in the WCR of the selected potentiometer
Read Data Register – read the contents of the selected
Data Register
Write Data Register – write a new value to the
selected Data Register.

The basic sequence of the three byte instructions is
illustrated in Figure 11. These three-byte instructions
exchange data between the WCR and one of the Data
Registers. The WCR controls the position of the wiper. The
response of the wiper to this action will be delayed by tWRL.
A transfer from the WCR (current wiper position), to a Data
Register is a write to non-volatile memory and takes a
maximum of tWR to complete. The transfer can occur
between one of the four potentiometers and one of its
associated registers; or the transfer can occur between all
potentiometers and one associated register.
Four instructions require a two-byte sequence to
complete, as illustrated in Figure 10. These instructions
transfer data between the host/processor and the CAT5241;
either between the host and one of the data registers or
directly between the host and the Wiper Control Register.
These instructions are:
XFR Data Register to Wiper Control Register
This transfers the contents of one specified Data
Register to the associated Wiper Control Register.
XFR Wiper Control Register to Data Register
This transfers the contents of the specified Wiper
Control Register to the specified associated Data
Register.
Global XFR Data Register to Wiper Control
Register
This transfers the contents of all specified Data Registers
to the associated Wiper Control Registers.
Global XFR Wiper Counter Register to Data
Register
This transfers the contents of all Wiper Control Registers
to the specified associated Data Registers.
Increment/Decrement Command
The final command is Increment/Decrement (Figures 6
and 12). The Increment/Decrement command is different
from the other commands. Once the command is issued and
the CAT5241 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 (tHIGH) while SDA is
HIGH, the selected wiper will move one resistor segment
towards the RH terminal. Similarly, for each SCL clock
pulse while SDA is LOW, the selected wiper will move one
resistor segment towards the RL terminal.
