Product details
Overview
X9317ZV8I from Renesas Electronics is a digitally controlled potentiometer (XDCP™) implementing a 99-element resistor array with 100 discrete wiper tap positions, nonvolatile wiper position storage, and 3-wire up/down serial interface. It operates as a three-terminal voltage divider or two-terminal variable resistor for precision analog trimming in DC-coupled signal paths.
For engineers reviewing the X9317ZV8I datasheet, X9317ZV8I pinout, X9317ZV8I application, or X9317ZV8I equivalent, this device supports low-noise bias control, gain/offset trim, and laser diode current regulation with ±20% end-to-end resistance tolerance, ±300 ppm/°C total resistance temperature coefficient, and <5 µA standby current.
Technical Context
The X9317ZV8I integrates a 7-bit up/down counter, decoder, and nonvolatile memory to control wiper position across 100 taps. Its "make-before-break" switching ensures continuity during wiper transitions, while the resistor array provides ratiometric tracking with ±20 ppm/°C ratiometric temperature coefficient.
Control logic responds to CS (chip select), U/D (direction), and edge-triggered INC inputs. Wiper position is stored in nonvolatile memory only when CS rises while INC is high-enabling deterministic power-up behavior without unintended writes during initialization.

Pinout & Package
Package: 8-lead TSSOP (RoHS-compliant, JEDEC MO-153 AC, M8.173 drawing). Dimensions: 4.40 mm × 3.0 mm × 1.20 mm max height. Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL): 1 (unlimited floor life).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (INC) | Increment clock input | Negative-edge-triggered control line; toggling moves wiper one tap in direction set by U/D |
| 2 (U/D) | Direction control input | Logic level determines wiper increment (+) or decrement (–) on each INC edge |
| 3 (RH) | High terminal | Fixed end of resistor array; connects to higher potential in voltage divider mode |
| 4 (VSS) | Ground reference | Return path for supply and signal; must be low-impedance for stable wiper voltage |

| 6 (RL) | Low terminal | Fixed end of resistor array; connects to lower potential or ground in voltage divider mode |
| 7 (CS) | Chip select | Active-low enable; rising edge with INC high initiates nonvolatile store; high state disables interface |
| 8 (VCC) | Supply voltage | 2.7–5.5 V CMOS rail; powers logic and resistor array; decoupling required within 1 cm |
Key Features

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, 10 kΩ nominal, ±30% RTOTAL tolerance, 100-year data retention | Requires I²C host; higher resolution but looser resistance tolerance; no 3-wire compatibility | Select when I²C bus is available and finer 0.39% steps are needed over 100-tap granularity |
| MCP41010-I/P | SPI interface, 257-tap resolution, 10 kΩ nominal, ±20% RTOTAL, 100-year retention, 5.5 V max VDD | Requires SPI master; incompatible control protocol; same package footprint but different pinout | Choose for SPI-based systems needing identical resistance range and industrial temp grade, accepting interface redesign |
Compared with AD5170BRMZ-10 and MCP41010-I/P, the X9317ZV8I offers deterministic 3-wire simplicity, lower interface pin count, and guaranteed make-before-break operation-making it optimal for cost-sensitive, space-constrained designs where minimal GPIO usage and analog continuity are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum wiper current rating for the X9317ZV8I?
The X9317ZV8I supports a maximum wiper current (IW) of ±4.4 mA under all operating conditions. This limit applies regardless of VCC voltage or wiper position and is defined by the absolute maximum rating for RH/RW/RL terminals. Exceeding this current may cause irreversible damage to the internal switching network or resistor elements. The X9317ZV8I is intended for signal-level trimming-not power-level adjustment-and should not be used in series with loads drawing more than 4.4 mA.
Does the X9317ZV8I require an external pull-up or pull-down resistor on its control pins?
No, the X9317ZV8I does not require external pull-up or pull-down resistors on CS, U/D, or INC inputs. Its input leakage current is specified at ±10 µA across the full temperature range, and VIH/VIL thresholds are defined relative to VCC (VIH ≥ 0.7×VCC, VIL ≤ 0.1×VCC). Microcontroller GPIOs configured with standard push-pull outputs can drive these inputs directly. External resistors are unnecessary unless system-level noise immunity or fail-safe default states are required beyond the device's native specifications.
How does the X9317ZV8I handle power-up sequencing to prevent unintended wiper movement?
The X9317ZV8I requires proper power-up sequencing to avoid spurious wiper shifts: VCC and VSS must be applied before any signals on CS, U/D, or INC. The datasheet specifies that CS and INC should be held high during power ramp-up. If CS or INC transitions low before VCC stabilizes, the internal counter may misinterpret noise as valid commands. The X9317ZV8I achieves wiper stability within 5 µs after VCC reaches final value, but reliable operation depends on adhering to the recommended sequence-no internal power-on reset circuit overrides incorrect timing.
Can the X9317ZV8I be used in a 2.7 V-only system without de-rating performance?
Yes, the X9317ZV8I is fully specified for operation down to 2.7 V, including all electrical parameters: wiper resistance (≤1000 Ω), active current (≤80 µA), and timing (tCYC ≤ 2 µs). Its 2.7–5.5 V supply range is explicitly tested and guaranteed across the full –40°C to +85°C temperature range. Unlike earlier variants limited to 4.5–5.5 V, the X9317ZV8I maintains full functionality-including nonvolatile store and 100-tap resolution-at minimum VCC, making it suitable for modern low-voltage embedded systems.
What is the significance of the "make-before-break" switching behavior in the X9317ZV8I?
The "make-before-break" switching ensures that the new wiper tap connects before the previous one disconnects-preventing momentary open-circuit conditions during position changes. This behavior is critical in feedback networks (e.g., op-amp gain-setting resistors) where an open circuit could cause output saturation or latch-up. In the X9317ZV8I, this feature is implemented in hardware and guaranteed across all 100 taps and temperature ranges, eliminating the need for external glitch suppression or software debouncing.
