OVERVIEW
The DS1846 NV tri-potentiometer, memory, and MicroMonitor™ consists of two 10kW, 100-position
linear taper potentiometers, one 100kW, 256-position linear taper potentiometer; 256 bytes of EEPROM
memory; and a MicroMonitor. The device provides an ideal method for setting bias voltages and currents
in control applications using a minimum of circuitry.
