DESCRIPTION The CAT521 is a dual 8-Bit Memory DAC designed as an electronic replacement for mechanical potentiometers and trim pots.
Intended for final calibration of products such as camcorders, fax machines and cellular telephones on automated high volume production lines and systems capable of self calibration, it is also well suited for applications were equipment requiring periodic adjustment is either difficult to access or located in a hazardous environment.
The CAT521 consists of a programmable DAC with independent high and low reference inputs and is capable of a rail to rail output swing.
The output is buffered by a rail to rail OP AMP.
Output settings, stored in nonvolatile EEPROM memory, are not lost when the device is powered down and are automatically reinstated when power is returned.
The output can be dithered to test new output values without effecting the stored settings FUNCTIONAL DIAGRAM VDD and stored settings can be read back without disturbing the DAC’s output.
Control of the CAT521 is accomplished with a simple 3 wire serial interface.
A Chip Select pin allows several CAT521's to share a common serial interface and communications back to the host controller is via a single serial data line thanks to the CAT521’s Tri-Stated Data Output pin.
A RDY/BSY output working in concert with an internal low voltage detector signals proper operation of EEPROM Erase/Write cycle.
The CAT521 operates from a single 3–5 volt power supply.
The high voltage required for EEP...
