1. Introduction
DIGIPOT Click is an accessory board
in
in
mikroBus™
form factor. It features
MCP4161
- a single-channel digital potenti-
ometer with 8-bit resolution (256 wiper
steps) and industry-standard SPI serial
interface. The resistance value of the digital
potentiometer goes up to 10kΩ. It features
outstanding AC/DC characteristics and low
power consumption. It can be used in audio
equipment, servo-motor control, battery
charging and control, LCD contrast control,
programmable filters etc.

Once you have soldered the headers your
board is ready to be placed into desired
mikroBUS™ socket. Make sure to align the
cut in the lower-right part of the board
with the markings on the silkscreen at the
mikroBUS™ socket. If all the pins are aligned
board is ready to be placed into desired
mikroBUS™ socket. Make sure to align the
cut in the lower-right part of the board
with the markings on the silkscreen at the
mikroBUS™ socket. If all the pins are aligned
correctly, push the board all the way
into the socket.

4. Driving the board
There are four screw terminals available for
further connections: PA, PB, PW and GND.
Data is sent to the board using industry
standard SPI communication interface.
On-board controller converts the received
digital value to the appropriate linearly
proportional resistance value.

Turn the board upward again. Make sure
to align the headers so that they are
perpendicular to the board, then solder the
pins carefully.

Turn the board upside down, so that
bottom side is facing you upwards. Place
shorter parts of the header pins in the
both soldering pad locations.
