The AD5290YRMZ100 is a 256-position High Performance Compact Digital Potentiometer that can be used as a programmable resistor or resistor divider. It performs the same electronic adjustment function as mechanical potentiometers, variable resistors and trimmers, with enhanced resolution, solid-state reliability and superior temperature stability. With digital rather than manual control, the AD5290 provides layout flexibility and allows closed-loop dynamic controllability.
