Hi,

I have xicor X9C103 based potentiometer module, as per data sheet -5v to +5v can be
applied across the potentiometer, is it ok if I can apply 0 to 10v across the pot?

Secondly where I can find the xicor app notes pdf files?

Regards

the maximum voltage applicable to the potentiometer pins is 5V, although compatible with the +/- 5V range it is not possible to use it with 0-10 V range.

There is no evidence that I muted SoNsIvRi

you could use an opamp to get 0-10v range.

It can be used in a single supply application, as far as I can see from the data sheet. How about use it in a setting with a VH=5 volt and VL=ground. And simply use an opamp after with a gain of two

> in a setting with a VH=5 volt and VL=ground

Why not use then a DAC instead of digitally controlled potentiometer,
and an opamp as by SideshowBoB suggested?

Real use cases of digitally controlled potentiometer are rather seldom.

I have seen years ago some in the circuitry of a Laser-Receiver for
the Equalizers.

or, you can try this part from analog devices

Hi, I've worked for a long time with Digital potentiometers for designing custom gain instrumentation amplifiers/signal subtractors.
The main issue is the wide range of resistance variation among chips while the laser-trimmered R values inside the single device is amazing.
This make a DIGIPOT useful for creating analog Resistor nets for operational amplifiers with low % differences inside the chip.
Another problem, I rembember, was the difference with real potentiomenters about bipolar signals in relationship with the power supply of the DIGIPOT. Some devices are exclusively for single supply applications while others for dual supply.
Just for having an idea and if you have time, read the following introductive document from Analg Devices:

If you can't get the Xicor to work, take a look at the MCP41HVX1. It's specified for up to +36v or +/-18v. Page 24 of the data sheet shows the different digital ground configurations. I bought some samples, but have not had the time to test them out.

I know it may be late, but give a chance to the Microchip MCP41HVx1 digipots. They work flawlessly.

Interested and hopefully helpful in: DC brushed motor control (mainly R/C - PPM/PWM), analog audio, PIC (mikrobasic PRO). Feel free to ask, and if I can, I will help. But only on forum topics, any started private conversation will continue in a public topic.
