Frequently Asked Questions
How many wiper positions does MCP4011-103E/SN provide and what is the end-to-end resistance?
MCP4011-103E/SN offers 64 wiper positions across a 10 kΩ end-to-end resistance, providing approximately 156 Ω per step, giving fine-grained control for gain trimming, voltage dividers, and LCD contrast adjustment in embedded designs.
What control interface does MCP4011-103E/SN use, and is it compatible with a single GPIO from a microcontroller?
MCP4011-103E/SN uses a 2-wire increment/decrement interface (CS and UD pins) that can be driven by 2 GPIO outputs of any microcontroller, requiring no dedicated SPI or I2C peripheral and operating up to 5.5 V logic levels.
Does MCP4011-103E/SN retain its wiper position after power is cycled, and what package options are available for high-volume procurement?
Yes, MCP4011-103E/SN uses non-volatile memory to retain the last programmed wiper position after power-off, eliminating re-initialization code. It is available in an 8-pin SOIC package with a typical factory lead time of 6 weeks for volume orders.
