CAT5110TBI-50-T3

CAT5110TBI-50-T3 Description

The CAT5110TBI-50-T3 is a digital potentiometer from onsemi, designed to offer precise resistance control in a compact SOT23-6 package. This device features a 50kΩ resistance with a tolerance of ±20%, making it suitable for applications requiring adjustable resistance. The CAT5110TBI-50-T3 is configured as a rheostat, providing linear taper characteristics across its 32 taps. It operates within a supply voltage range of 2.7V to 5.5V and maintains a temperature coefficient of 200ppm/°C, ensuring stable performance over varying temperatures. The device is equipped with an Up/Down (U/D, CS) interface for easy control and adjustment. The memory type is volatile, meaning it retains settings only while power is applied. This digital potentiometer is packaged in a tape and reel format, facilitating surface mount assembly. Although the product is now obsolete, it remains unaffected by REACH regulations and has a moisture sensitivity level (MSL) of 1, indicating it is suitable for unlimited storage under standard conditions.
