Product details
Overview
ISL22343TFR20Z from Renesas (formerly Intersil) is a quad digitally controlled potentiometer (XDCP™) with 256-tap resolution, I²C interface, non-volatile wiper storage, dual supply support (VCC = 2.25–5.5V, V− = −2.25 to −5.5V), and 100kΩ end-to-end resistance, used for precision analog trimming in bipolar signal conditioning circuits.
For engineers reviewing the ISL22343TFR20Z datasheet, ISL22343TFR20Z pinout, ISL22343TFR20Z application, or ISL22343TFR20Z equivalent, key selection considerations include its QFN-20 package, ±45 ppm/°C end-to-end tempco, 70Ω typical wiper resistance, shutdown current <4µA, and compatibility with I²C buses supporting up to eight devices via A0–A2 address pins.
Technical Context
The ISL22343TFR20Z integrates four independent DCPs on a single monolithic CMOS die, each with volatile Wiper Registers (WRi) and non-volatile Initial Value Registers (IVRi), enabling power-up recall of preset wiper positions. Its dual-supply architecture supports true bipolar operation between V− and VCC.
It implements resistor arrays with CMOS switches operating in "make-before-break" mode, ensuring glitch-free wiper transitions. The I²C interface complies with standard-mode timing (fSCL ≤ 400kHz), supports addressable access to 4 IVRi + 11 general-purpose non-volatile registers, and features dedicated Access Control Register (ACR) for volatile/non-volatile register selection and shutdown control.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar digitally controlled potentiometer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD5243BRMZ100 | Single-supply only (2.7–5.5V); no V− pin; 100kΩ, 256-tap; SPI interface instead of I²C | Cannot support bipolar analog ranges; requires separate level-shifting for negative signals | Choose when system uses SPI infrastructure and operates only with unipolar supplies |
| MCP45HV51-104E/ST | High-voltage tolerant (up to ±18V across terminals); 100kΩ, 256-tap; I²C-compatible but no V− pin; uses single VDD | Lacks true dual-supply capability; relies on external biasing for bipolar operation | Prefer for high-voltage sensor interfaces where extended terminal voltage range outweighs need for integrated V− |

FAQ
What is the package type and footprint of the ISL22343TFR20Z?
The ISL22343TFR20Z uses a 20-lead QFN package measuring 5mm × 5mm (L20.5x5), with an exposed die pad internally connected to V−. Its footprint differs from the TSSOP variant (ISL22343TFV20Z) and requires PCB layout adherence to thermal guidelines in TB389-specifically, connecting the EPAD to the V− plane or leaving it floating.
Does the ISL22343TFR20Z support true bipolar analog operation?
Yes-the ISL22343TFR20Z supports true bipolar operation via dedicated VCC (2.25–5.5V) and V− (−2.25 to −5.5V) supplies. DCP terminals (RH/RL/RW) tolerate voltages from V− to VCC, enabling direct use in ±2.5V, ±5V, or other split-rail signal chains without external level shifting or charge pumps.
How does non-volatile wiper recall work on the ISL22343TFR20Z?
At power-up, the ISL22343TFR20Z automatically loads the contents of each non-volatile Initial Value Register (IVRi) into its corresponding volatile Wiper Register (WRi), positioning all four wipers to their last-saved state. This occurs after VCC exceeds 1.9V and completes within 5ms, eliminating need for host-initiated restore sequences.
Can the ISL22343TFR20Z be used in rheostat mode?
Yes-the ISL22343TFR20Z supports both three-terminal potentiometer and two-terminal rheostat configurations. In rheostat mode, either RH or RL is left unconnected while RW and the other terminal form a variable resistor; specifications such as RINL (±1 MI), RDNL (±0.04 MI), and TCR (±40 ppm/°C) apply directly to this usage.
What is the maximum I²C bus speed supported by the ISL22343TFR20Z?
The ISL22343TFR20Z supports standard-mode I²C operation up to 400kHz (fSCL). Its timing parameters-including tLOW (1300ns), tHIGH (600ns), and tAA (900ns)-are fully compliant with I²C specification v2.1. It does not support fast-mode (1MHz) or high-speed mode.
