    [SOLVED] INTERFACING MCP4162 with PIC16F886

    Perhaps if you explained the intended application/system in detail, there maybe a alternative path to a viable solution. You also should be aware that the typical wiper resistance is 75Ω, however it can be as high as 300Ω for the MCP4162. Reference the table below:

    Writing data to USB with FTDI chip/Writing too frequently causes error

    Perhaps a system driver issue. What OS is the computer system running? What revision is the FTDI driver? What version of Python? What version of the USB API? Have you verified the FTDI is genuine and not a counterfeit? FTDI FT232RL: real vs fake There have been several issues with FTDI...

    Which is pin 6 and pin 7 on MCP1407?

    As Frank indicated the only way to be certain, is to measure the separated drain terminals, however I suspect they are internally connected to provide an adequate path for the Peak Output Current of 6A in the smaller packages. You might also notice the TO-220-5 package only provide one OUT...
