INTRODUCTION
WHAT IS THE MCP46XXEV EVALUATION BOARD?
This chapter provides an overview of the MCP46XXEV Evaluation Board and covers
the following topics:
• What is the MCP46XXEV Evaluation Board?
• What the MCP46XXEV Evaluation Board kit includes
The MCP46XXEV Evaluation Board allows the system designer to quickly evaluate the
operation of Microchip Technology’s MCP4661 Digital Potentiometer device. This
device is similar to the following devices:
• MCP4531
• MCP4532
• MCP4541
• MCP4542
• MCP4551
• MCP4552
• MCP4562
• MCP4631
• MCP4632
• MCP4641
• MCP4642
• MCP4651
• MCP4652
• MCP4661
• MCP4662
The board uses the TSSOP20EV generic PCB and has been populated for the
MCP4661. The 6-pin header (PICkit™ serial) has been jumpered to the MCP4661’s
appropriate pins. This allows the PICkit serial to communicate with the device.
Additional blank PCBs may be ordered by using the order number: TSSOP20EV. Each
TSSOP20EV kit contains 5 PCBs.
Figure 1-1 shows the top view of the populated TSSOP20EV PCB which creates the
MCP46XXEV Evaluation Board.
