Digital potentiometer is a variable resistor which uses digital signals and switches instead of mechanical action and used for trimming and scaling analog signals. Digital potentiometer is an electronic device that is used to restore the conservative passive potentiometer. To design the digital potentiometer IC parameters are considered. For protection from environmental factors digital potentiometer is encapsulated.
The demand is increasing for digital potentiometer IC market as the digital potentiometer IC is less vulnerable to vibration and less accessible to tampering.
Digital potentiometer is used for audio level control, for sensor trimming, in optical networks, for level adjustment in filters and in automotive electronics. Digital potentiometer is a mixed type signal device, the analog part consists of three terminal component known as potentiometer and the digital part consists of registers, interface and control.
The advantage of digital potentiometer is that they can be controlled in closed loop and it is not sensitive to dust, moisture or dirt particles which can kill the mechanical part if it intruded.
Drivers for Digital Potentiometer IC Market: Increasing demand of Digital Potentiometer IC Market due to the small size of digital potentiometer IC
Digital potentiometers are smaller than mechanical potentiometer due to which it is easy to carry the digital potentiometer IC. As the size of the digital potentiometer is smaller, it can fit in tiny IC packages. Due to smaller size the usage of digital potentiometer increases which increases the demand for digital potentiometer IC market.
Less exposure to tampering and vibration are estimated to increase the demand for digital potentiometer IC market
Digital potentiometer IC are less vulnerable to physical tampering and vibration due to the features of digital potentiometer IC. Digital Potentiometer being an IC offers more features than mechanical potentiometer. Digital potentiometer offers high resolution, stability, and reliability which is driving the growth of digital potentiometer IC market.
Restraints Digital Potentiometer IC Market: Digital Potentiometer resistance is only valid when the correct DC supply voltage is present
One of the limitation which restricts the growth of digital potentiometer market is that the digital potentiometer resistance is valid if proper supply voltage is given to it.
