3.4
This is the SPI port chip select pin and is used to exe-
cute a new command after it has been loaded into the
shift register. This pin has a Schmitt Trigger input.
3.5
This is the SPI port clock pin and is used to clock-in
new register data. Data is clocked into the SI pin on the
rising edge of the clock and out the SO pin on the falling
edge of the clock. This pin is gated to the CS pin (i.e.,
the device will not draw any more current if the SCK pin
is toggling when the CS pin is high). This pin has a
Schmitt Trigger input.
3.6
This is the SPI port serial data input pin. The command
and data bytes are clocked into the shift register using
this pin. This pin is gated to the CS pin (i.e., the device
will not draw any more current if the SI pin is toggling
when the CS pin is high). This pin has a Schmitt Trigger
input.
3.7
This is the SPI port serial data output pin used for
daisy-chaining more than one device. Data is clocked
out of the SO pin on the falling edge of clock. This is a
push-pull output and does not go to a high-impedance
state when CS is high. It will drive a logic-low when CS
is high.
3.8
The Reset pin will set all potentiometers to mid-scale
(Code 80h) if this pin is brought low for at least 150 ns.
This pin should not be toggled low when the CS pin is
low. It is possible to toggle this pin when the SHDN pin
is low. In order to minimize power consumption, this pin
has an active pull-up circuit. The performance of this
circuit is shown in Figure 2-12. This pin will draw negli-
gible current at logic level ‘0’ and logic level ‘1’. Do not
leave this pin floating.

3.9
The Shutdown pin has a Schmitt Trigger input. Pulling
this pin low will put the device in a power-saving mode
where A terminal is opened and the B and W terminals
are connected for all potentiometers. This pin should
not be toggled low when the CS pin is low. In order to
minimize power consumption, this pin has an active
pull-up circuit. The performance of this circuit is shown
in Figure 2-12. This pin will draw negligible current at
logic level ‘0’ and logic level ‘1’. Do not leave this pin
floating.
