Product details
Overview
X9317WM8IZ-2.7T1 from Renesas Electronics is a digitally controlled potentiometer (XDCP™) with 100 wiper tap points, nonvolatile wiper position storage, and 2.7V–5.5V supply operation. It implements a 99-element resistor array with temperature-compensated end-to-end resistance (±20% tolerance), 10 kΩ total resistance, and low standby current (<5 µA). It serves as a three-terminal voltage divider or two-terminal variable resistor in precision analog trimming applications.
For engineers reviewing the X9317WM8IZ-2.7T1 datasheet, X9317WM8IZ-2.7T1 pinout, X9317WM8IZ-2.7T1 application, or X9317WM8IZ-2.7T1 equivalent, this device supports industrial-grade (-40°C to +85°C) operation in MSOP-8 packaging, features a 3-wire up/down serial interface, and delivers ±1 MI absolute linearity and -120 dBV noise performance for high-fidelity bias and gain control.
Technical Context
The X9317WM8IZ-2.7T1 integrates a 7-bit up/down counter, decoder, and nonvolatile memory to control wiper position across 100 discrete taps. Its resistor array uses temperature-compensated elements yielding ±300 ppm/°C total resistance drift and ±20 ppm/°C ratiometric coefficient - critical for stable voltage division under thermal variation.
Wiper movement follows make-before-break switching, ensuring continuity during transitions, while CS-controlled nonvolatile store enables power-up recall of last-set position. The device operates with VCC = 2.7V–5.5V, supports 1 µs INC-to-RW response, and maintains <400 Ω wiper resistance at 2.7V supply - enabling reliable low-voltage analog tuning.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| End-to-end Resistance | 10 kΩ ±20% - defines full-scale analog range for voltage divider or current-limiting configurations. |
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.7 V to 5.5 V - enables direct compatibility with 3.3 V and 5 V systems without level-shifting. |
| Wiper Tap Resolution | 100 positions (0–99) - provides 1% step resolution for fine-grained analog adjustment. |
| Standby Current | <5 µA - minimizes quiescent power in battery-powered or always-on trim circuits. |
| Absolute Linearity | ±1 MI (Minimum Increment) - ensures ≤1% deviation from ideal voltage division across full range. |
| Wiper Resistance | 400 Ω max at 2.7 V - limits signal path error and loading effect in low-voltage sensor interfaces. |
| Nonvolatile Endurance | 100,000 data changes per bit - supports long-term field calibration without wear-out concerns. |
| Operating Temperature | -40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial ambient conditions without derating. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 8-lead MSOP (M8.118), RoHS-compliant, moisture sensitivity level (MSL) 1, thermal resistance θJA = 145°C/W.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (INC) | Increment clock input | Negative-edge-triggered control signal; toggling moves wiper up/down based on U/D state. |
| 2 (U/D) | Direction control input | Logic level selects wiper movement direction (HIGH = up, LOW = down) during INC transition. |
| 3 (RH) | High terminal | Fixed end of resistor array; connects to higher-potential node in voltage divider configuration. |
| 4 (VSS) | Ground reference | System ground return for internal logic and resistor array; must be low-impedance. |
| 5 (RW) | Wiper output | Movable terminal; delivers tapped voltage/current; series resistance ≤400 Ω at 2.7 V. |
| 6 (RL) | Low terminal | Fixed end of resistor array; connects to lower-potential node (e.g., ground or negative rail). |
| 7 (CS) | Chip select | Active-low enable; HIGH initiates nonvolatile store when INC is also HIGH; LOW enables control. |
| 8 (VCC) | Power supply | 2.7–5.5 V analog/digital supply; powers internal logic, memory, and resistor array. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Nonvolatile wiper position storage | Retains last-set tap position across power cycles; eliminates need for external EEPROM or MCU initialization. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar digitally controlled potentiometer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD5170BRMZ-10 | 256-tap I²C interface; 10 kΩ; 2.7–5.5 V; ±30% RTOTAL tolerance; no nonvolatile store in basic version. | Requires I²C host and external EEPROM for persistent settings; higher resolution but less deterministic startup behavior. | Choose AD5170BRMZ-10 if I²C bus availability and finer 0.39% step resolution outweigh need for guaranteed power-up repeatability. |
| MCP41010-I/P | 100-tap SPI interface; 10 kΩ; 2.7–5.5 V; ±20% RTOTAL; volatile wiper register only (no NV memory). | Needs MCU firmware to reload wiper position at boot; lacks autonomous power-up recall capability. | Choose MCP41010-I/P where SPI is preferred and system-level initialization can guarantee repeatable startup state. |

FAQ
What is the guaranteed power-up behavior of the X9317WM8IZ-2.7T1?
The X9317WM8IZ-2.7T1 automatically recalls the last stored wiper position from nonvolatile memory within 5 µs after VCC stabilizes. This behavior is guaranteed across its full -40°C to +85°C operating range and requires no external initialization. The X9317WM8IZ-2.7T1 achieves deterministic startup without MCU intervention, making it ideal for safety-critical or unattended systems where analog settings must be preserved across power loss.
Does the X9317WM8IZ-2.7T1 support true 3-wire operation without additional control lines?
Yes, the X9317WM8IZ-2.7T1 operates exclusively with three digital control lines: CS (chip select), U/D (up/down direction), and INC (increment clock). No separate reset, write-enable, or address lines are required. Its 3-wire interface is self-synchronizing and deterministic - each negative edge on INC advances the wiper one tap in the direction set by U/D while CS is low. This eliminates protocol overhead and reduces MCU GPIO count compared to SPI or I²C DCPs.
How does the X9317WM8IZ-2.7T1 handle wiper movement during rapid successive INC toggles?
The X9317WM8IZ-2.7T1 uses make-before-break switching during wiper transitions, meaning multiple taps connect briefly to RW during movement. When toggled rapidly, the effective RTOTAL may temporarily drop due to parallel conduction paths - a known behavior documented in the datasheet's "Principles of Operation" section. For stable analog performance, allow ≥2 µs between INC edges (tCYC), and avoid multi-step adjustments in time-critical signal paths unless transient loading is acceptable.
What is the maximum allowable voltage across RH and RL terminals of the X9317WM8IZ-2.7T1?
The X9317WM8IZ-2.7T1 specifies RH and RL terminal voltage range as 0 V to VCC (i.e., VSS ≤ VRH/RL ≤ VCC), with absolute maximum rating of +6 V relative to VSS. Applying voltage beyond VCC risks exceeding internal junction limits and may cause irreversible damage. In practice, the device is intended for use within its supply rails - for example, with RH = VCC and RL = VSS in standard voltage divider configurations - and is not rated for floating or reverse-biased terminal operation.
Can the X9317WM8IZ-2.7T1 be used in AC-coupled signal paths?
No, the X9317WM8IZ-2.7T1 is designed strictly for DC and low-frequency analog biasing - not AC signal routing. Its potentiometer capacitances (CH = CL = 10 pF, CW = 25 pF) and lack of specified AC bandwidth or THD performance preclude use in audio or RF signal paths. However, it is well-suited for setting DC operating points in amplifier stages, regulator feedback networks, and sensor excitation circuits where stable, low-drift DC levels are required - precisely the role defined for the X9317WM8IZ-2.7T1 in its datasheet Applications section.
