AD5245
Arduino library for I2C single channel digital potentiometer AD5245.
The library is experimental and not tested with hardware yet.
Description
The AD5245 is a single channel digital potentiometer which comes in 5 kΩ, 10 kΩ, 50 kΩ, 100 kΩ and can be set in 256 steps.
Indicative step size.
| value | step size |
|---|---|
| 5 kΩ | 19.53 Ω |
| 10 kΩ | 39.06 Ω |
| 50 kΩ | 195.3 Ω |
| 100 kΩ | 390.6 Ω |
An important property of the device is that it defaults to the mid-scale position at startup. One can use AD5245_MIDPOINT == 128 to reset to the mid-scale position.
Related
This library is based upon the AD524X library, and triggered by this issue:

I2C address
The AD5245 has one address line to configure the I2C address.
| Address(dec) | Address(Hex) | AD0 |
|---|---|---|
| 44 | 0x2C | GND |
| 45 | 0x2D | +5V |
The maximum I2C speed is 400 KHz.
Interface
#include AD5245.h"
The library has a number of functions which are all quite straightforward. One can get / set the value of the potentiometer.
- AD5245(uint8_t address, TwoWire *wire = &Wire) constructor
- bool begin(uint8_t sda, uint8_t scl) ESP32 a.o initializing of Wire.
- bool begin() for UNO.
- bool isConnected() See if address set in constructor is on the bus.
- uint8_t reset() sets potentiometer to midpoint = 128. (startup default)
- uint8_t write(uint8_t value) set to value 0 .. 255.
- uint8_t read() read value from cache.
- uint8_t readDevice() read value from device.
- uint8_t shutDown() check datasheet, not tested yet, use at own risk.
Error codes
| define | value |
|---|---|
| AD5245_OK | 0 |
| AD5245_ERROR | 100 |
Operation
The examples show the basic working of the functions.
Future
- sync with AD520X library
- sync with AD524X library
- reset ==> midScaleReset() ? AD524X alike
