Texas Instruments TPL1401 Digital Potentiometer (Digipot)
Texas Instruments TPL1401 Digital Potentiometer (Digipot) offers higher load regulation in voltage-divider applications as a result of an integrated buffered wiper. The TPL1401 makes in-factory calibration and trimming easier with integrated non-volatile memory (NVM) and a simple I2C...
