Working Principle

The AD7376ARWZ50 is based on a variable resistor integrated circuit (IC) technology. The variable resistor IC consists of two switches, which are actuated by a wiper motion. A voltage is applied across the resistor, which causes a current to flow through the resistance. The amount of current flowing is controlled by adjusting the wiper position of the digital potentiometer.

The wiper position is adjusted by a digital signal, which is generated by a digital control unit. This unit can either be connected directly to the control panel of the device or through a serial bus. The wiper position and the corresponding resistance can then be adjusted in real time to provide accurate control of the process parameters.

Conclusion

The AD7376ARWZ50 is a reliable, cost effective and easy to use digital potentiometer that is suitable for a wide range of industrial and medical instrumentation applications. It is based on a variable resistor IC technology, which provides precise control of the resistance in real time, allowing it to be used in a variety of data acquisition and transducer calibration tasks.
