Product details
Overview
X9317US8IZ-2.7T1 from Renesas Electronics is a digitally controlled potentiometer (XDCP™) with 100 wiper tap points, nonvolatile wiper position storage, and 50 kΩ end-to-end resistance. It operates from 2.7 V to 5.5 V, consumes <5 µA standby current, and uses a 3-wire up/down interface for voltage divider or variable resistor applications in precision analog trimming circuits.
For engineers reviewing the X9317US8IZ-2.7T1 datasheet, X9317US8IZ-2.7T1 pinout, X9317US8IZ-2.7T1 application, or X9317US8IZ-2.7T1 equivalent, this page delivers verified specifications, SOIC-8 package details, real-world use cases in DC bias adjustment and laser diode control, and two confirmed alternative parts with functional and application-level distinctions.
Technical Context
The X9317US8IZ-2.7T1 implements a 99-element resistor array with make-before-break wiper switching, enabling glitch-free tap transitions. Its 7-bit counter drives a decoder that selects one of 100 discrete wiper positions, each corresponding to a 1% resolution step across the full resistance range.
Wiper position is stored in nonvolatile memory upon CS↑ while INC = HIGH, ensuring automatic recall at power-up. The device supports both three-terminal potentiometer (voltage divider) and two-terminal variable resistor (current control) configurations, with RH/RL terminals rated for ±6 V and RW wiper resistance specified at 400–1000 Ω depending on supply voltage.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| End-to-end Resistance (RTOTAL) | 50 kΩ ±20% - defines maximum adjustable resistance range for gain/offset trim circuits |
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.7 V to 5.5 V - enables direct compatibility with 3.3 V and 5 V systems without level-shifting |
| Standby Current | <5 µA - ensures minimal power impact in battery-powered or always-on analog subsystems |
| Wiper Resistance (RW) | 400–1000 Ω at VCC = 2.7 V - directly affects insertion loss and signal integrity in high-impedance feedback paths |
| Resolution | 1% (100 taps) - provides fine-grained analog tuning suitable for laser diode bias calibration |
| Nonvolatile Memory Endurance | 100,000 write cycles - supports repeated field calibration without wear-out concerns |
| Temperature Range | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial-grade operation in embedded control and sensing environments |
Pinout & Package
Package: 8-lead narrow-body SOIC (M8.15E), RoHS-compliant, surface-mountable with standard JEDEC MS-012 footprint.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (INC) | Increment clock input | Negative-edge-triggered control line; toggling moves wiper up/down per U/D state |
| 2 (U/D) | Direction control input | Logic level determines wiper movement direction during INC transition |
| 3 (RH) | High terminal | Fixed end of resistor array; connects to higher-potential node in voltage divider |
| 4 (VSS) | Ground reference | Primary return path for internal logic and analog array; must be low-impedance |
| 5 (RW) | Wiper output | Movable terminal; delivers tapped voltage or adjustable resistance point to external circuit |
| 6 (RL) | Low terminal | Fixed end of resistor array; connects to lower-potential or ground-referenced node |
| 7 (CS) | Chip select | Active-low enable; initiates wiper movement when LOW, triggers NV store on rising edge with INC = HIGH |
| 8 (VCC) | Supply voltage | Power rail for logic and analog sections; supports 2.7–5.5 V operation with <5 µA standby draw |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Solid-state potentiometer architecture | Eliminates mechanical wear, contact bounce, and environmental drift-ideal for sealed or high-vibration systems |
| Nonvolatile wiper position storage | Ensures repeatable startup behavior without host MCU initialization; critical for safety-critical bias settings |
| Temperature-compensated resistor array | ±300 ppm/°C total resistance TC and ±20 ppm/°C ratiometric TC preserve voltage division accuracy over temperature |
| Make-before-break wiper switching | Prevents open-circuit transients during tap changes-essential for stable feedback loops in amplifiers and regulators |
| Low-noise performance | –120 dBV noise floor (1 kHz ref) minimizes injection into sensitive analog signal paths like sensor front-ends |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar digitally controlled potentiometer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD5241BRMZ50 | Single-channel, I²C interface; 50 kΩ; 256-tap resolution; 2.7–5.5 V operation | Requires I²C master and address configuration; lacks nonvolatile store-on-power-up default behavior | Preferred when system already uses I²C bus and higher resolution (0.39%) is needed over simplicity of up/down interface |
| MCP41050-I/P | Single-channel, SPI interface; 50 kΩ; 256-tap resolution; 2.7–5.5 V; volatile wiper register only | No nonvolatile memory-wiper resets to mid-scale on power-up unless host reinitializes | Chosen where SPI is available and host MCU handles calibration persistence; avoids NV memory wear limits |
Compared with AD5241BRMZ50 and MCP41050-I/P, the X9317US8IZ-2.7T1 offers deterministic power-up behavior without host intervention, simpler 3-wire control timing, and guaranteed 100-year data retention-making it optimal for unattended or safety-critical analog trimming where reliability and zero-initialization overhead matter most.

FAQ
What is the operating voltage range for the X9317US8IZ-2.7T1?
The X9317US8IZ-2.7T1 operates from 2.7 V to 5.5 V, supporting both 3.3 V and 5 V systems without external regulation. This extended low-voltage capability enables direct integration into battery-powered or energy-constrained designs while maintaining full functionality-including nonvolatile store and 100-tap resolution-across the entire range.
Does the X9317US8IZ-2.7T1 retain its wiper position after power cycling?
Yes, the X9317US8IZ-2.7T1 stores the last wiper position in nonvolatile memory and automatically recalls it on power-up. This behavior is inherent to the device architecture and requires no host MCU intervention, making X9317US8IZ-2.7T1 ideal for applications where consistent startup conditions are essential-such as laser driver bias or sensor calibration offsets.
How many wiper positions does the X9317US8IZ-2.7T1 support, and what is its resolution?
The X9317US8IZ-2.7T1 supports exactly 100 discrete wiper positions across its 50 kΩ resistor array, yielding 1% resolution per step. This is implemented via a 99-element linear array and a 7-bit counter-driven decoder, with each tap representing a fixed 1/99 increment of the total end-to-end resistance-enabling predictable, repeatable analog adjustments.
What package type is used for the X9317US8IZ-2.7T1, and is it RoHS-compliant?
The X9317US8IZ-2.7T1 uses an 8-lead narrow-body SOIC package (JEDEC MS-012, drawing M8.15E) with 1.27 mm lead pitch. It is fully RoHS-compliant, featuring 100% matte tin plating and Pb-free molding compounds, and is qualified for standard reflow profiles including Pb-free peak temperatures per IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020.
Can the X9317US8IZ-2.7T1 be used as both a potentiometer and a rheostat?
Yes, the X9317US8IZ-2.7T1 supports both configurations: as a three-terminal potentiometer (RH–RW–RL) for voltage division, and as a two-terminal variable resistor (e.g., RH–RW or RW–RL) for current control. Its internal architecture allows either mode without modification, and the datasheet provides validated circuit examples for both-including laser diode biasing and adjustable voltage regulators.
