Product details
Overview
X9317WM8ZT1 from Renesas Electronics is a digitally controlled potentiometer (XDCP™) with 100 wiper tap points, nonvolatile wiper position storage, and 3-wire up/down serial interface. It implements a 99-element resistor array with temperature-compensated end-to-end resistance of 10kΩ ±20%, operates from 4.5V to 5.5V, and delivers low-power standby current <5µA. It serves as a solid-state replacement for mechanical potentiometers in precision analog trim applications such as LCD bias control and laser diode bias adjustment.
For engineers reviewing the X9317WM8ZT1 datasheet, X9317WM8ZT1 pinout, X9317WM8ZT1 application, or X9317WM8ZT1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its MSOP-8 package, nonvolatile memory retention (100 years), wiper resistance ≤400Ω at 5V, ratiometric temperature coefficient ±20ppm/°C, and guaranteed operation across 0°C to +70°C.
Technical Context
The X9317WM8ZT1 integrates a 7-bit up/down counter, decoder, and nonvolatile memory to control wiper position across 100 discrete taps on a 99-resistor ladder. Its "make-before-break" switching ensures glitch-free transitions during wiper movement, while the CS/INC/U/D interface enables deterministic, edge-triggered control without clock signal requirements.
It functions as either a three-terminal voltage divider (RH–RW–RL) or two-terminal variable resistor (RW–RL or RW–RH), with wiper terminal (RW) exhibiting typical series resistance of 200Ω and maximum 400Ω at VCC = 5V. The device recalls its last stored wiper position on power-up, eliminating need for host-initiated initialization.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| End-to-end resistance (RTOTAL) | 10kΩ ±20% - defines full-scale analog range and sets minimum load impedance compatibility |
| Wiper resistance (RW) | ≤400Ω at 5V - limits voltage error in high-precision divider configurations |
| Supply voltage (VCC) | 4.5V to 5.5V - compatible with standard 5V logic and analog rails; no 2.7V variant for this marking |
| Standby current (ISB) | <5µA - enables battery-backed or ultra-low-power systems to retain trim state indefinitely |
| Nonvolatile endurance | 100,000 data changes per bit - supports field calibration cycles over product lifetime |
| Ratiometric tempco | ±20ppm/°C - ensures stable voltage division ratio across temperature without external compensation |
| Resolution | 1% (1/99 step) - provides fine-grained analog adjustment granularity for trimming offset/gain |
| Operating temperature | 0°C to +70°C - qualified for commercial-grade embedded instrumentation and consumer electronics |
Pinout & Package
Package: 8-lead MSOP (M8.118), RoHS-compliant, moisture sensitivity level (MSL) 1, body dimensions 3.0mm × 3.0mm × 0.85mm.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (INC) | Increment clock input | Negative-edge-triggered control line; toggling moves wiper up/down based on U/D state |
| 2 (U/D) | Direction control input | Logic level determines wiper increment (HIGH) or decrement (LOW) on each INC edge |
| 3 (RH) | High terminal | Fixed end of resistor array; connects to highest potential node in voltage divider mode |
| 4 (VSS) | Ground reference | Return path for supply and signal; must be low-impedance to minimize noise coupling |
| 5 (RW) | Wiper output | Movable terminal; delivers interpolated voltage/current; series resistance ≤400Ω affects accuracy |
| 6 (RL) | Low terminal | Fixed end of resistor array; connects to lowest potential node (e.g., ground or negative rail) |
| 7 (CS) | Chip select | Active-low enable; HIGH stores current wiper position to nonvolatile memory when INC = HIGH |
| 8 (VCC) | Positive supply | Power rail for internal logic and resistor array; must be stabilized before asserting CS/INC |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Nonvolatile wiper storage | Retains last programmed position across power cycles; eliminates boot-time recalibration |
| 3-wire serial interface | Requires only CS, U/D, and INC signals-no clock or data lines-simplifies MCU GPIO usage |
| Temperature-compensated array | ±20ppm/°C ratiometric tempco ensures stable voltage division ratio over 0°C–70°C range |
| Make-before-break switching | Prevents open-circuit transients during wiper movement; critical for stable bias in sensitive analog circuits |
| Low-power CMOS design | Standby current <5µA enables integration into always-on subsystems without significant battery drain |
| 100-year data retention | Guaranteed nonvolatile memory integrity over full product lifecycle, including long-term storage |

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 | I²C interface, 256-tap resolution, 10kΩ, ±30% RTOTAL tolerance, higher wiper resistance (600Ω typ) | Requires I²C master; less precise voltage division due to wider resistance tolerance and higher RW | Choose when I²C bus availability simplifies system architecture and ±30% RTOTAL is acceptable |
| MCP41010-I/P | SPITM interface, 256-tap resolution, 10kΩ, ±20% RTOTAL, 125ppm/°C tempco, no nonvolatile store on power-up | Needs external EEPROM or host firmware to restore wiper position after power loss | Choose when SPI interface is preferred and host can manage wiper state persistence |
Compared with AD5170BRMZ-10 and MCP41010-I/P, the X9317WM8ZT1 offers superior ratiometric stability (±20ppm/°C vs. ≥125ppm/°C), guaranteed nonvolatile recall on power-up, and simpler 3-wire control-making it optimal for self-contained, calibration-critical analog trim where minimal host intervention is required.

FAQ
What is the operating voltage range for the X9317WM8ZT1?
The X9317WM8ZT1 operates from 4.5V to 5.5V, matching standard 5V logic and analog supply rails. It does not support the extended 2.7V–5.5V range found in other X9317 variants like X9317WM8Z-2.7T1. This fixed 5V range ensures consistent wiper resistance and noise performance across its specified commercial temperature range (0°C to +70°C).
Does the X9317WM8ZT1 retain its wiper position after power cycling?
Yes, the X9317WM8ZT1 stores the wiper position in nonvolatile memory and automatically recalls it on power-up. This behavior is guaranteed by design: once the wiper position is stored (by raising CS while INC is HIGH), it persists for up to 100 years and restores within 5µs of VCC stabilization, eliminating need for host-initiated reinitialization.
What package type is used for the X9317WM8ZT1?
The X9317WM8ZT1 uses an 8-lead MSOP package (JEDEC MO-187-AA compliant, drawing M8.118), measuring 3.0mm × 3.0mm × 0.85mm. It features gull-wing leads, RoHS-compliant matte tin plating, and MSL1 rating-enabling standard reflow assembly without moisture preconditioning.
How many wiper positions does the X9317WM8ZT1 support?
The X9317WM8ZT1 supports exactly 100 discrete wiper tap positions, corresponding to a 99-element resistor ladder. Each step represents 1% of full-scale resistance (1/99), enabling precise analog adjustment. The wiper cannot wrap around; it stops at tap 0 (RL) or tap 99 (RH), ensuring predictable endpoint behavior.
What is the maximum wiper current rating for the X9317WM8ZT1?
The X9317WM8ZT1 supports a maximum wiper current (IW) of ±4.4mA under normal operating conditions. Exceeding this limit risks accelerated wear of internal switches and may compromise long-term endurance. For current-sensing or high-current trim applications, external buffering or series limiting resistors are recommended to keep IW within specification.
