Product details
Overview
ISL23328TFRUZ-TK from Renesas Electronics (formerly Intersil) is a dual, volatile, 128-tap digitally controlled potentiometer with I²C interface, 100kΩ total resistance, 1.7V–5.5V analog supply (VCC), and independent 1.2V–5.5V logic supply (VLOGIC). It operates across –40°C to +125°C and is used for precision gain/offset trimming in battery-powered instrumentation and power supply margining.
For engineers reviewing the ISL23328TFRUZ-TK datasheet, ISL23328TFRUZ-TK pinout, ISL23328TFRUZ-TK application, or ISL23328TFRUZ-TK equivalent, this page delivers verified specifications, validated pin functions, confirmed dual-DCP operation mode, real-world use cases in sensor trimming and RF bias control, and two technically documented alternative parts with explicit functional and application-level distinctions.
Technical Context
The ISL23328TFRUZ-TK integrates two independent DCP cores on a single monolithic CMOS die, each with an 8-bit volatile wiper register (WR0/WR1) directly accessible via I²C. Wiper positioning uses make-before-break switching, ensuring monotonic resistance transitions and glitch-free voltage divider output during tap changes.
Its dual-supply architecture separates analog (VCC) and digital (VLOGIC) domains: VLOGIC enables direct interfacing with 1.2V microcontrollers without level shifters, while VCC powers the resistor array and supports up to 5.5V DCP terminal voltages. Shutdown mode forces end-to-end open circuit and internally connects RW to RL via a 2kΩ resistor.

| A0–A2 | Slave address inputs | Hardwired LSBs of 7-bit I²C address; allow up to eight devices on same bus without address conflict |
| RH0, RL0, RW0 | DCP0 high/low/wiper terminals | Form three-terminal potentiometer or two-terminal rheostat; RH0/RL0 define 100kΩ end-to-end resistance |
| RH1, RL1, RW1 | DCP1 high/low/wiper terminals | Independent second DCP channel; matched to DCP0 within ±2 LSB for ratiometric applications |
| VCC | Analog supply input | Powers resistor array and wiper switches; sets maximum allowable voltage across DCP terminals |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual 128-tap DCPs | Enables simultaneous gain and offset calibration in single-supply op-amp circuits without inter-channel crosstalk |
| Volatile wiper registers (WR0/WR1) | Allows dynamic runtime reconfiguration via I²C; power-on defaults to mid-scale (64) for safe startup |
| Independent VLOGIC supply | Eliminates need for external level shifters when interfacing with 1.2V/1.8V microcontrollers or FPGAs |
| Shutdown mode (SHDN bit) | Reduces system power by disconnecting DCP resistors and forcing RW–RL path, preventing leakage into sensitive nodes |
| ±0.15 LSB DNL / ±0.15 LSB INL | Ensures monotonicity and linearity critical for closed-loop control systems where non-monotonic behavior causes instability |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar digitally controlled potentiometer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD5242BRUZ100 | Single 100kΩ DCP, I²C interface, 2.7V–5.5V VDD only (no separate VLOGIC), 200ppm/°C tempco | Lacks dual-channel capability and 1.2V logic compatibility; higher tempco reduces stability in wide-temperature sensor calibrations | Select when only one DCP is needed and host MCU operates at ≥2.7V logic levels |
| MCP45HV51-103E/ST | Dual 10kΩ DCP, SPI interface, 4.5V–22V high-voltage operation, no VLOGIC pin | Requires SPI host and level-shifting for low-voltage MCUs; 10kΩ value increases current draw in high-impedance bias networks | Select for high-voltage bias control (e.g., laser diode drivers) where SPI is preferred and >5.5V operation is required |
Compared with AD5242BRUZ100 and MCP45HV51-103E/ST, the ISL23328TFRUZ-TK uniquely combines dual 100kΩ channels, 1.2V–5.5V VLOGIC flexibility, and ±2 LSB channel matching-making it the only option for compact, low-power, ratiometric trimming in battery-operated industrial sensors and RF subsystems.

FAQ
What is the default wiper position of ISL23328TFRUZ-TK at power-on?
At power-on, both wiper registers (WR0 and WR1) of the ISL23328TFRUZ-TK reset to 64 (0x40 hexadecimal), placing each wiper at the mid-scale position (64th tap) of its respective 128-tap resistor string. This ensures predictable, centered operation for voltage dividers and rheostats during system initialization without requiring host firmware intervention.
Does ISL23328TFRUZ-TK support true 1.2V I²C bus operation?
Yes, ISL23328TFRUZ-TK fully supports 1.2V I²C bus operation via its dedicated VLOGIC pin, which sets input thresholds and powers the digital interface independently of VCC. The datasheet specifies VIH = 0.7 × VLOGIC and VIL = 0.3 × VLOGIC, confirming reliable recognition of 1.2V logic highs and lows without external level shifting.
Can ISL23328TFRUZ-TK be used in rheostat mode?
Yes, ISL23328TFRUZ-TK supports rheostat configuration by connecting either RH or RL to the wiper (RW) and using the remaining terminal as the variable resistance node. In this mode, the device delivers monotonic resistance from 0Ω to 100kΩ with ±0.15 MI differential non-linearity, validated across VCC = 1.7V–5.5V and –40°C to +125°C.
What is the maximum wiper current rating for ISL23328TFRUZ-TK?
The absolute maximum wiper current for ISL23328TFRUZ-TK is ±6mA for short durations (≤10 seconds), but the recommended operating limit is ±3mA. Exceeding ±3mA risks increased wiper resistance drift and accelerated wear; design should ensure worst-case current through RW remains within this bound under all VCC and tap-position conditions.
How does shutdown mode affect the wiper position in ISL23328TFRUZ-TK?
In shutdown mode (SHDN bit = 0 in ACR register), ISL23328TFRUZ-TK disconnects the DCP resistor array from both RH and RL terminals and internally connects RW to RL via a 2kΩ series resistor. The wiper register values (WR0/WR1) remain unchanged, and upon exit from shutdown, the wipers return to their pre-shutdown positions after a 1.5µs recall time.
