The AD5116 provides a nonvolatile digital potentiometer solution for 64-position adjustment applications, offering guaranteed low resistor tolerance errors of ±8% and up to ±6 mA current density in the A, B, and W pins. The low resistor tolerance, low nominal temperature coefficient, and high bandwidth simplify open-loop applications, as well as tolerance matching applications.
The new low A-W and B-W resistance feature minimizes the wiper resistance in the extremes of the resistor array to typically 45 Ω.
A simple push button interface allows manual control with just two external push button switches. The AD5116 is designed with a built-in adaptive debouncer that ignores invalid bounces due to contact bounce (commonly found in mechanical switches). The debouncer is adaptive, accommodating a variety of push buttons.
The AD5116 can automatically save the last wiper position into EEPROM, making it suitable for applications that require a power-up in the last wiper position, for example, audio equipment.
The AD5116 is available in a 2 mm × 2 mm 8-lead LFCSP package. The part is guaranteed to operate over the extended industrial temperature range of −40°C to +125°C.

Desperate Housewives Review: Who Killed Herself?by Christina Tran at . Comments
Promos for "Searching" teased that another Wisteria Lane housewife would be pulling a Mary Alice.
Misleading as always, this preview led us believe the victim would be one of our main characters. Would it be Renee? No, most definitely it would be too soon to see her go. Susan? Too obvious. Though she's struggling with her dialysis and is searching for a kidney donor, Susan is far from the suicidal type.
Then, there's Beth, the wife of a murderer and the daughter of a very disappointed mother.
When Paul confirmed he killed her Aunt Martha, Beth stared in awe as Paul creepily smiled proudly. Then, her mother, Felicia, tells her she's never done anything right and is a complete disappointment. Poor Beth. She always tried to do the right thing and even in her last few moments of life, Beth wanted to find meaning in her life by helping Susan.Now that she's out of the picture, how will her death affect those that pushed her over the edge? More importantly, will her kidney go to Susan? What about Bree and her need to find purpose in her life by helping one of her best friends?
As for Susan and Mike and their series of unfortunate events, they were just trying to celebrate their July anniversary a little early after hearing bad news from Susan's doctor. I got the point after the first couple of incidents; nothing was going to go right. The unnecessary scene with the civil war reenactment actors seemed a little strange and random. Toward the end, though, Susan and Mike shared a sweet and memorable moment about her not giving up her life and wanting to enjoy every moment of every day.
Meanwhile, Gaby's jealousy of Lee and Bob's adopted daughter's violin talent seemed out of place. At first, I didn't think she would be so quick to pressure Juanita into anything and would even be a little appreciative of her daughter's talent (by the way, Celia's still not in sight)... even if it was armpit farting!
I was so happy to see Juanita tapping her way into making her mom proud.
Elsewhere, Lynette convinces a non-maternal Renee to reconsider adopting a baby. I hope that the writers have much more in store for Vanessa Williams because this storyline felt out of character and boring for someone like Renee – she's never expressed any interest in being a mother. It's hard to believe that a few minutes of seeing Lynette tearing up about Preston and Porter's moving out and growing up would change her mind.
Lastly, I'm concerned for Bree and didn't know that she was feeling so lost. By the way, why did it seem like Bree was hesitant about being the donor after being told she was told she was one of the two matches found for Susan? I get that she was maybe in disbelief at first, but it really felt and sounded like she wasn't too thrilled to hear the good news. I wonder if Bree can still help Susan and how she will mend herself back to the Bree we all know.
Overall, this episode was somewhat predictable and slow-paced. With Beth's death, a slew of questions remain that will greatly affect many of our main characters. I'm hoping that the next episode will move much quicker and we'll get the answers we need as we inch closer to the season finale.
I miss the first seasons of DH... at least Beth is gone!
And yeah Renee did a good job on the room, but I thought she just wanted it because Bob and Lee were letting someone else do it... So I feel like she was more of just proving to them that she could decorate the room, after all she is a designer.
Why not let Renee adopt an older child? As the adoptive mother of an older child (a 17 year old boy, 20 years ago) I know that there is a great need for people willing to adopt older children and if you prepare yourself, it can be a very rewarding endeavor. Also this would be a very good way to promote adoption of older children.
Never expressed a want for a child? Did you not see the episode where she did the bedroom for Bob and Lee? She didnt say anything explicitly but it was obvious what she wanted, and they built it up for a few episodes. That was totally NOT out of place or random.
I knew it would be Beth.

Paul Ryan: The Sequester Is Going To Happen Because The Democrats Have 'No Leadership'
Grace Wyler
February 17, 2013 | 3:32 PM
Republican House Budget Chair Paul Ryan laid the blame on Democrats Sunday for failing to avoid the sequester, accusing the Senate and the White House of showing "no leadership" on budget issues.
"There's no leadership on the other side of the aisle and therefore no agreement," Ryan said in an interview with ABC's This Week. "The Senate hasn't passed a bill to replace the sequester. The president gave a speech showing that he'd like to replace it, but he hasn't put any details out there. So that is why I conclude I believe it's going to take place."

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) - The Federal Bureau of Investigation is conducting an independent investigation of the fatal shooting of a popular 13-year-old boy by a sheriff's deputy in Northern California.
Sheriff Steve Freitas said he will cooperate fully with federal investigators and welcomes their participation in the probe of Andy Lopez's killing on Tuesday afternoon. The shooting has generated numerous protests and marches in the suburban town of Santa Rosa, with many residents questioning the deputy's decision to fire on the youth.
In a statement late Friday afternoon, Freitas expressed sympathy to the Lopez family and thanked the Santa Rosa community for keeping protests peaceful.

If you are of a certain age, retired, without an office and somewhat bored. I have an idea for you. Join an acting group, class, whatever you want to call it. What you need is an experienced leader to guide you and a dozen or so pleasant people who will commit to the venture.
Read Whole Story
Children and grandchildren, friends, people to see, places to go, things to do. I have NOT given up.
At home I never went to religious school and was not bar mitzvahed. We went as a family to services on the high holy days. My father always said, 'we go to be counted.' We went as part of the team.
A messy world? Oh, yes. But do some good and enjoy. Nothing wrong with that.
About 10 years ago my internist told me that my blood test showed kidney numbers beyond normal. He said it in passing and I let it pass. I have no interest into possible lurking calamities.
When I was 80, I wrote a personal memoir. This is what I said about old age: 'I am an old man. Eighty has got to be old. But, if in good health with all the joints and the brain working, what is the big deal?' Now, at 87, I wouldn't say that today.
A few maxims have become embedded in my psyche and have helped me live a better life. They are few and they are not old favorites like 'a rolling stone gathers no moss' or 'a penny saved is a penny earned.'
My lovely and adored wife, Iris, would have been a survivor in prehistoric times. What our neanderthal ancestors needed to evade the sabre tooth tiger and the massive mastodon she has in spades.
Nothing is more satisfying than connecting, truly connecting, with another soul or group of souls. Mostly, however, we skim the surface, maintain our poise, do not penetrate or reveal.
Thought I wouldn't get around to that, did you? Did you really think I would ignore a third of our time? Perhaps you thought I would have nothing to contribute. Wrong. Eighty-seven years, hundreds of conversations, a thousand articles.
Tennis has been very important in my life. And I'm not even particularly good at it. When I was eight, away at camp, a racquet was put into my hands. It felt so right. I won the tennis medal there every year until my last.
When David Koch lavishes funds on the opera, ballet and Lincoln Center, he is increasing inequality, as he is by lowering his taxes, some of which goes to government programs for the poor.
In my sixties, I got an MFA degree at NYU in creative writing. My day job was investing in the stock market for clients. That paid the rent but, after 40 years, it began to wear thin. Writing was -- is -- where it's at. How else to make sense of this world?
It seems to me that my contemporaries and I knew so much more when we were growing up than do my grandchildren and their friends. I mean general knowledge -- history, politics, the complicaations of life.
We New Yorkers are a generous bunch. Mostly we know where we want to help. Some of us, however, are unsure of where to aim their dollars. These organizations are worthy of your investigation.
I am a user of technology at the lowest level. We have voice-mail but can't access messages from afar. We have GPS in our car but neither my wife Iris nor I know how to use it.
Peter, my baby, my teenager, my tennis partner for 30 years, who now vigorously covers 90 percent of the court when we are doubles parfners. Peter -- old? I mean really old? Like me? Yes, as I see the child in the man, I can see the elderly in the man, now strong in his middle years.
Every Wednesday from 8 to 10 a.m. i have a tennis game with my two sons and a fourth. Spring to fall, we play on the public courts in Central Park around 95th Street. In the winter, we play indoors at Midtown Tennis Club, 8th Avenue and 27th Street.
If you could read only two pages of The New York Times, which would you choose? I would choose the front page and the obituary page. When I come home from a trip, I dash through the papers and scan those two pages. I have to know who, among my friends and acquaintances, kicked the bucket.
I am part of a NYC lunch group that has met for lunch once a month for the past fifteen years and is still going strong. There are six of us, all in our mid-eighties. Some of us have been friends for 72 years; others, a mere 50 years.
Voter ID laws could be noxious for the people of our country. That is their purpose. But they could also be a gift. Make that happen.
For two smart guys, surrounded by supposed smart advisers, this is the dumbest presidential campaign I have ever witnessed. And I go back to FDR.
At other ages I was defined by what I did. Schoolboy, father, husband, stockbroker, writer. Now, if there was only one thing you could know about me -- just one -- I would choose that you know I'm 85.
It is no shocking revelation that American politics has degenerated into incivility. Gone are the days when House Speaker Tip O'Neill and President Ro...
