MCP41010-I from Microchip Tech, in a SOIC-8. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.
Pinout
| Pin | Name | Type | Function |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | CS | input | SPI Chip Select (Schmitt Trigger input); command execution is triggered when CS transitions from low to high after 16 clock cycles are clocked while CS is low. |
| 2 | SCK | input | SPI Serial Clock (Schmitt Trigger input); data is clocked into SI on rising edges of SCK; pin is gated to CS and draws no current when CS is high. |
| 3 | SI | input | SPI Serial Data Input (Schmitt Trigger input); command and data bytes are clocked into the shift register on rising edges of SCK; pin is gated to CS. |
| 4 | VSS | power_in | Ground; power supply reference at 0V. |
| 5 | PA0 | passive | Potentiometer Terminal A connection; analog node with voltage range 0V to VDD with no polarity restriction. |
| 6 | PW0 | passive | Potentiometer Wiper connection; analog node with voltage range 0V to VDD; maximum wiper current ±1 mA per specification. |
| 7 | PB0 | passive | Potentiometer Terminal B connection; analog node with voltage range 0V to VDD with no polarity restriction. |
| 8 | VDD | power_in | Positive power supply input; operating voltage range 2.7V to 5.5V per specification. |
