I'm working on my first real-world project; It's a digital adjustable power supply.
I'm planning on using a digital potentiometer in it, and I've been reading a page in the playground utilizing the AD5206, a Digital Pot that has 6 outputs (http://arduino.cc/en/Tutorial/SPIDigitalPot).
That's a bit overkill for my situation (unless in the future I want to have multiple outputs on the supply), so I found what looks to be a similar version (it's similar and uses SPI like the AD5206). It's the MCP4131. Here's the datasheet:
Now, I've never used something that there isn't a prewritten library for, so this is a (fun) new experience for me :). I was wondering if you guys think I could adapt the library for the AD5206 for use with this "little brother".
If I could, how hard would it be? I've been sifting through the datasheet, and it might as well be an alien language for all the good those charts and diagrams are doing me.
Perhaps someone more skilled in this area could give me some advice? ;D
Thanks!
