AC/DC CHARACTERISTICS (CONTINUED)
Electrical Specifications: Unless otherwise indicated, all parameters apply across the specified operating ranges.
T
A
= -40°C to +125°C, 2.1 kΩ, 5kΩ, 10 kΩ and 50 kΩ devices. Typical specifications represent values for V

Parameters Sym Min Typ Max Units Conditions
Note 1: Resistance is defined as the resistance between terminal A to terminal B.
2: INL and DNL are measured at V

3: MCP4011/13 only, test conditions are: I
W
= 1.9 mA, code = 00h.
4: MCP4012/14 only, test conditions are:
5: Resistor terminals A, W and B’s polarity with respect to each other is not restricted.
6: This specification by design.
7: Non-linearity is affected by wiper resistance (R
W
), which changes significantly over voltage and temperature. See
Section 6.0 “Resistor” for additional information.
8: For voltages below 2.7V, refer to Section 2.0 “Typical Performance Curves”.
9: The MCP4011 is externally connected to match the configurations of the MCP4012 and MCP4014 and then tested.
