Calculating R
The AD5259 features a patented R
nonvolatile memory. The tolerance is stored in the memory
during factory production and can be read by users at any time.
The knowledge of stored tolerance allows users to accurately
calculate R
mode, and open-loop applications where knowledge of abso-
lute resistance is critical.
The stored tolerance resides in the read-only memory and is
expressed as a percentage. The tolerance is stored in two memory
location bytes in sign magnitude binary form (see Figure 41).
The two EEPROM address bytes are 11110 (sign + integer)
and 11111 (decimal number). The two bytes can be indi-
vidually accessed with two separate commands (see Table 15).
Alternatively, readback of the first byte followed by the second
byte can be done in one command (see Table 16). In the latter
case, the memory pointer will automatically increment from
the first to the second EEPROM location (increments from
11110 to 11111) if read consecutively.

Sign + Integer Byte
In the first memory location, the MSB is designated for the
sign (0 = + and 1= −) and the seven LSBs are designated for
the integer portion of the tolerance. In the second memory
location, all eight data bits are designated for the decimal
portion of tolerance. Note the decimal portion has a limited
accuracy of only 0.1%. For example, if the rated R
and the data readback from Address 11110 shows 0001 1100,
and Address 11111 shows 0000 1111, then the tolerance can
be calculated as
