General Description
The DS1841 is a 7-bit, logarithmic, nonvolatile (NV) digi-
tal resistor that features an on-chip temperature sensor
and associated analog-to-digital converter (ADC). The
integrated temperature sensor indexes a 72-byte NV
lookup table (LUT) encompassing a temperature range
from -40°C to +100°C. The LUT output can drive the
resistor directly or be added to an NV initial-value regis-
ter (IVR) to drive the resistor. This flexible LUT-based
architecture allows the DS1841 to provide a tempera-
ture-compensated resistor output with arbitrary slope.
Programming is accomplished by an I

C-compatible
interface, which can operate at speeds of up to 400kHz.
