Product details
Overview
X9314WM-3T1 from Intersil is a nonvolatile digitally controlled potentiometer (XDCP™) with 32 log-taper taps, 10kΩ end-to-end resistance, and three-wire up/down serial interface; it functions as a solid-state trimmer in analog signal conditioning circuits requiring power-up wiper recall and ±5V terminal voltage capability.
For engineers reviewing the X9314WM-3T1 datasheet, X9314WM-3T1 pinout, X9314WM-3T1 application, or X9314WM-3T1 equivalent, this device supports precision resistance trimming in industrial sensor interfaces, audio gain control, and DC bias adjustment where nonvolatile storage of wiper position and low standby current (<500µA) are critical design requirements.
Technical Context
The X9314WM-3T1 implements a 5-bit up/down counter driving a 32-position decoder to select one of 31 resistive elements in series; wiper movement is edge-triggered on INC with direction controlled by U/D, and nonvolatile storage occurs on CS↑ while INC = HIGH.
It operates across VCC = 3V to 5.5V, supports ±5V analog terminal voltages (VH/RH, VL/RL), and maintains ratiometric temperature coefficient of ±20 ppm/°C - enabling stable attenuation in voltage-divider configurations over -40°C to +85°C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| End-to-End Resistance | 10kΩ ±20% - defines full-scale analog range for voltage divider or gain-setting applications. |
| Taper Profile | Logarithmic - provides perceptually linear volume/gain control in audio and sensor signal chains. |
| Wiper Resistance | 40Ω typical - minimizes insertion error when used as variable resistor in feedback paths. |
| Nonvolatile Retention | 100 years - ensures factory-set or user-trimmed values persist across power cycles without backup power. |
| Standby Current | <500µA max - enables battery-powered systems to retain trim state during extended sleep modes. |
| VCC Range | 3V to 5.5V - compatible with both 3.3V and 5V logic and analog supply domains. |
| Terminal Voltage Range | ±5V referenced to VSS - supports bipolar signal routing without external level-shifting. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 8-lead MSOP (M8.118), RoHS-compliant, Pb-free plus anneal finish.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VH/RH | High terminal of resistor array | Fixed end of potentiometer; accepts up to +5V relative to VSS; polarity depends on U/D direction setting. |
| VL/RL | Low terminal of resistor array | Fixed end opposite VH/RH; accepts down to -5V relative to VSS; not ground-referenced by default. |
| VW/RW | Wiper output terminal | Variable tap point; connects to one of 32 positions; series resistance ~40Ω affects loading in high-impedance nodes. |
| VCC | Digital supply input | 3V–5.5V power for logic and memory; powers internal counter, decoder, and NV memory circuitry. |
| VSS | Ground reference | Common return for digital logic and analog terminals; must be low-impedance to minimize noise coupling. |
| U/D | Direction control input | Active-HIGH selects increment; LOW selects decrement; may be changed dynamically while CS = LOW. |
| INC | Edge-triggered wiper step input | Negative-edge triggered; each pulse moves wiper one tap; timing tCYC ≥ 4µs required for reliable operation. |
| CS | Chip select and store enable | LOW enables device; HIGH while INC = HIGH initiates nonvolatile store; transitions to standby after store completes. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Log-taper 32-tap resistor array | Enables smooth, perceptually uniform gain/volume control in audio and human-interface circuits. |
| Three-wire serial interface (U/D, INC, CS) | Requires no clock or data lines beyond basic GPIO; simplifies integration into microcontroller-based trimming systems. |
| Nonvolatile wiper position storage | Eliminates need for external EEPROM or MCU firmware to restore trim settings after power loss. |
| Make-before-break wiper switching | Prevents open-circuit transients during tap changes - critical for stability in closed-loop analog circuits. |
| ±5V analog terminal rating | Supports direct connection to bipolar op-amp stages or sensor outputs without level-shifting components. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar digitally controlled potentiometer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD5243BRMZ10 | 2-channel I²C interface, 10kΩ, 256 taps, 0.1% RAB tolerance; no log taper; requires external VDD/VSS decoupling. | Designed for dual-channel simultaneous adjustment; lacks native log taper and ±5V analog terminal support. | Select when multi-channel coordination or tighter resistance matching is required, and I²C infrastructure is available. |
| MCP41010-I/P | Single-channel SPI interface, 10kΩ, 256 linear taps, 20% RAB tolerance; VDD = 2.7–5.5V; wiper resistance 120Ω typical. | Linear taper only; higher wiper resistance increases insertion error in precision gain-setting networks. | Choose for SPI-based systems needing higher resolution (256 steps), accepting linear response and reduced analog voltage margin. |
Compared with AD5243BRMZ10 and MCP41010-I/P, the X9314WM-3T1 uniquely delivers log taper, ±5V analog terminal operation, and make-before-break switching in an 8-pin MSOP - making it optimal for audio and bipolar sensor trimming where waveform integrity and power-up repeatability are mandatory.

FAQ
What is the operating voltage range for the X9314WM-3T1?
The X9314WM-3T1 operates from VCC = 3V to 5.5V, supporting both 3.3V and 5V system rails. Its analog terminals (VH/RH, VL/RL) tolerate ±5V relative to VSS, enabling use in bipolar signal paths without level-shifting circuitry. This dual-voltage capability makes the X9314WM-3T1 suitable for mixed-signal applications where digital logic and analog signal conditioning share a common board.
Does the X9314WM-3T1 retain its wiper position after power cycling?
Yes, the X9314WM-3T1 stores wiper position in nonvolatile memory with 100-year data retention. Upon power-up, it automatically recalls the last stored value and configures the wiper accordingly. This behavior is inherent to the X9314WM-3T1 architecture and requires no external components or initialization code - a key advantage over volatile digital potentiometers.
Can the X9314WM-3T1 be used as a two-terminal variable resistor?
Yes, the X9314WM-3T1 can operate as a two-terminal variable resistor by connecting either VH/RH or VL/RL to VW/RW and using the remaining terminal as the second connection point. Its 40Ω typical wiper resistance and ±5V terminal rating ensure low insertion error and compatibility with high-impedance nodes - a verified configuration documented in the X9314WM-3T1 datasheet application notes.
What is the maximum allowable voltage across VH/RH and VL/RL for the X9314WM-3T1?
The absolute maximum voltage difference between VH/RH and VL/RL is 10V (ΔV = |VH/RH − VL/RL| ≤ 10V), with each terminal rated for −5V to +5V relative to VSS. This specification is explicitly defined in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table of the X9314WM-3T1 datasheet and ensures safe operation under transient conditions and mismatched supply scenarios.
Is the X9314WM-3T1 pin-compatible with other packages in the X9314 family?
No, the X9314WM-3T1 uses the 8-lead MSOP package (M8.118), which has different footprint dimensions and thermal characteristics than the 8-lead SOIC variant (M8.15). While electrical functionality and pin functions are identical across X9314 variants, PCB layout must be adapted for the MSOP body size and lead pitch - the X9314WM-3T1 is not a drop-in replacement for SOIC-packaged X9314 devices.
