MCP4261-104E/ML Description
MCP4261-104E/ML developed by Microchip Technology is a type of 7/8-bit single/dual SPI digital POT with non-volatile memory. It is a new CMOS digital and analog mixed-signal processing integrated circuit that replaces the traditional mechanical potentiometer (analog potentiometer). A digital potentiometer is controlled by a digital input and produces an analog output. Depending on the digital potentiometer, the maximum value of the wiper current can be from a few hundred microamps to several milliamperes. The digital potentiometer adopts numerical control to adjust the resistance value. It has the advantages of flexible use, high adjustment accuracy, no contact, low noise, not easy to be stained, anti-vibration, anti-interference, small size, long life, etc.
