The X9258US24I-2.7T1 also comes with a wide range of features and performance including wide dynamic range, linear response, fast settling time and low-drift operation. The X9258US24I-2.7T1 offers a low voltage range of 0.3V to 10V, a wide resistance range of 10KΩ to 5MΩ, and a maximum operating temperature of up to 150°C. Additionally, this product feature on-board diagnostics and extensive fail-safe protection.

The X9258US24I-2.7T1 digital potentiometer utilizes a simple architecture that provides high accuracy, repeatability and robust performance. The product is based on a standard CMOS process with five active signals and two sense signals that generate an adjustable voltage level along with a reference voltage. The output of the potentiometer is variable and is achieved by controlling the output tap formed by the five active signals. The reference voltage is the sum of the active signals, which is then converted to a voltage by an ADC.

In order to achieve the variable output, a small current is injected into the sense nodes, which is then duplicated across the five active signals. The Vref is kept constant so the output voltage remains stable. This highly accurate and repeatable process allows for precision data acquisition and process control.

The X9258US24I-2.7T1 digital potentiometer also provides digital output that can be controlled via an I2C or SPI interface. This digital interface simplifies the process of programming the X9258US24I-2.7T1 and eliminates the need for external digital-to-analog converters. The digital output allows for monitoring of the X9258US24I-2.7T1’s status, as well as fine tuning of the performance parameters.
