MCP4013T-202E

Microchip Tech · Digital Potentiometers · SOT-23-6

MCP4013T-202E from Microchip Tech, in a SOT-23-6. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 VDD power_in Positive power supply input, relative to VSS, ranging from 1.8V to 5.5V, with a decoupling capacitor to VSS recommended.
2 VSS power_in Device ground reference.
3 U/D input TTL-compatible increment/decrement input; an increment moves the wiper one step toward terminal A and a decrement moves it one step toward terminal B.
4 CS input TTL-compatible chip select input with internal pull-up; VIL enables serial commands, VIHH enables high-voltage serial commands, and a floating pin makes the U/D pin ignored.
5 W passive Potentiometer wiper terminal, the adjustable terminal, with no polarity relative to A or B, supporting positive and negative current and with voltage between VSS and VDD.
6 A passive Potentiometer terminal A, the fixed connection to the 0x3F end of the potentiometer, with no polarity, supporting positive and negative current and with voltage between VSS and VDD.
