this section. The I
commands are formatted.
The MCP44XX supports four basic commands. The
location accessed determines the commands that are
supported.
For the Volatile Wiper Registers, these commands are:
• Write Data
• Read Data
• Increment Data
• Decrement Data
For the TCON Register, these commands are:
• Write Data
• Read Data
These commands have formats for both a single
command or continuous commands. These commands
are shown in
Each command has two operational states. These
operational states are referred to as:
• Normal Serial Commands
• High-Voltage Serial Commands

The MCP44XX’s Command Byte has three fields: the
Address, the Command Operation, and 2 Data bits
(see
defined (D8).
The device memory is accessed when the Master
sends a proper Command Byte to select the desired
operation. The memory location getting accessed is
contained in the Command Byte’s AD3:AD0 bits. The
action desired is contained in the Command Byte’s
C1:C0 bits, see
desired memory location will be read, written,
Incremented (wiper setting +1) or Decremented (wiper
setting -1). The Increment and Decrement commands
are only valid on the volatile wiper registers, and in
High Voltage commands to enable/disable WiperLock
Technology and Software Write Protect.
If the Address bits and Command bits are not a valid
combination, then the MCP44XX will generate a Not
Acknowledge pulse to indicate the invalid combination.

D9 and D8 are the most significant bits for the digital
potentiometer’s wiper setting. The 8-bit devices utilize
D8 as their MSb while the 7-bit devices utilize D7 (from
the data byte) as their MSb.
