AD5206 with Arduino Nano Power Supply

Hello everyone,
I'm new to the world of Arduino and have a question:
I want to control eight AD5206 Digitpods via SPI with my Arduino Nano. Can I connect all eight Digitpods to the 3.3V pin of the Arduino, or do I need an additional power supply?

Welcome to the forum

How much current does each of the pots use ?

Thank you,

Honestly, I'm not quite sure which value from the datasheet is relevant.

Idd and Iss of the power supply are 60 µm.

It ought to be safe even with 10k pots provided You don't feed the controller via max Vin. 50k or 100k pots makes it more safe.

Sorry, I don't quite understand. I want to power the potentiometers with the voltage from the Arduino Nano.

Could someone please help me? The question is whether I can power eight AD5206 with the 3.3V pin of the Arduino Nano. So, I would connect the 3.3V pin of the Arduino to the VDD of the AD5206.
