DESCRIPTION
The wiper position of the MCP41XXX/42XXX varies linearly and is controlled via an industry-standard SPI interface. The devices consume <1 µA during static operation. A software shutdown feature is provided that disconnects the “A” terminal from the resistor stack and simultaneously connects the wiper to the “B” terminal. In addition, the dual MCP42XXX has a SHDN pin that performs the same function in hardware.
