MCP46XX PICtail Plus Daughter Board
Manufactured By:Microchip
Part Number:MCP46XXDM-PTPLS
The MCP46XX PICtail™ Plus Daughter Board (MCP46XXDM-PTPLS) demonstrates the features and abilities of Microchip’s MCP45XX and MCP46XX Digital Potentiometers. This board is designed to exclusively use the MCP46X1 devices. The MCP4661 uses an I2C™ interface and can be controlled via the PICkit Serial Analyzer interface or via the PICtail™ Plus interface. The operation of the MCP45XX devices is similar to the MCP46XX devices. Therefore, the MCP46XX PICtail™ Plus Daughter Board can be used as a development platform for either device family.
This board is designed to easily operate with any of the following:
- Explorer 16 Development Board (DM240001)
- PICkit™ Serial Analyzer (DV164122)
- Other PICDEM Demo Board that includes a PICtail Plus female connector
Features
- PICkit Serial Analyzer Interface
