TPL0501EVM Datasheet PDF - TI

The TPL0501EVM is an evaluation module for TPL0501, a single channel, linear taper digital potentiometer with 256 wiper positions. This device can be used as a three terminal potentiometer or as a two terminal rheostat. The TPL0501 has an end to end resistance of 100KR. The internal registers of the TPL0501 can be accessed using a SPI-compatible interface. The TPL0501 has a nominal temperature coefficient of 35ppm/°C. The TPL0501 is available in an 8pin SOT 23 and 8 microQFN package with a specified temperature range of -40°C to +125°C. The evaluation module is designed to operate with the Texas Instruments LaunchPad (MSP-EXP430G2). The evaluation module comes with a pre programmed MSP430G2553 microcontroller which is to be inserted in the DIP socket on the LaunchPad.

● Works with low cost MSP430 based LaunchPad platform

● Simple GUI to control EVM

● EVM can be operated in two different modes: adjustable voltage reference mode variable gain mode

● Board is entirely powered by USB

● 2.7V to 5.5V single supply operation

●It is important to operate this EVM within the input voltage range of 0V to 5.5V and the output voltage range of 0V to 5.5V. Exceeding the specified input range may cause damage to the EVM.

●The LaunchPad (MSP-EXP430G2) can be purchased separately.
