Key Features

  • 5 kΩ end-to-end resistance with 64-position linear taper for fine analog adjustment
  • 2-wire (UP/DOWN) increment/decrement serial control interface
  • Compact SOT-23-6 package enabling space-efficient PCB designs
  • 2 kHz nominal bandwidth suitable for audio and signal conditioning
  • Single-supply operation and non-volatile wiper position support

Applications

MCP4013T-502E/CH is commonly used in portable consumer electronics, hearing aids, and battery-powered sensors where digitally adjustable bias or gain control is required in a small form factor. It is also used in industrial calibration circuits and audio equipment where repeatable analog adjustment via a 2-wire interface is preferred over mechanical trimmers.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many wiper positions does MCP4013T-502E/CH offer, and what is the minimum resistance step size for a 5 kΩ pot?

MCP4013T-502E/CH provides 64 positions across a 5 kΩ end-to-end resistance, giving a step size of approximately 78 Ω per increment. This resolution is suitable for fine analog gain or bias trimming in sensor interfaces and amplifier circuits.

Can MCP4013T-502E/CH replace a mechanical trimmer in an audio gain-control circuit operating at low frequencies?

Yes. The part's 2 kHz bandwidth and 5 kΩ resistance make it a suitable drop-in digital replacement for low-frequency audio trimmers. Its 2-wire increment/decrement interface enables microcontroller-driven gain adjustment without mechanical wear.

What are the lead-time and package considerations for MCP4013T-502E/CH when sourcing for high-volume production?

The factory lead time for MCP4013T-502E/CH is 15 weeks, which requires advance planning for high-volume builds. It ships in a SOT-23-6 tape-and-reel format with a lead-free (Pbfree: Yes, JESD-609 e3) rating, compatible with RoHS-compliant assembly lines.
