CAUTION

ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily

accumulate on the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection. Although

the AD8323 features proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may occur on

devices subjected to high-energy electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD precautions are

recommended to avoid performance degradation or loss of functionality.

Mnemonic

Description

1

DATEN

Data Enable Low Input. This port controls the 8-bit parallel data latch and shift register. A Logic

0-to-1 transition transfers the latched data to the attenuator core (updates the gain) and simulta-

neously inhibits serial data transfer into the register. A 1-to-0 transition inhibits the data latch

(holds the previous gain state) and simultaneously enables the register for serial data load.

2

SDATA

Serial Data Input. This digital input allows for an 8-bit serial (gain) word to be loaded into the

internal register with the MSB (Most Significant Bit) first.

3

CLK

Clock Input. The clock port controls the serial attenuator data transfer rate to the 8-bit master-

slave register. A Logic 0-to-1 transition latches the data bit and a 1-to-0 transfers the data bit to

the slave. This requires the input serial data word to be valid at or before this clock transition.

GND

Common External Ground Reference.

5, 9, 10, 19,

Common Positive External Supply Voltage. A 0.1

µF capacitor must decouple each pin.

PD

Logic “0” powers down the part. Logic “1” powers up the part.

7

SLEEP

Low Power Sleep Mode. In the Sleep mode, the AD8323’s supply current is reduced to 4 mA. A
