 A CircuitPython driver for the AD5245 digital potentiometer.
 
+The AD5245 Digital Potentiometer breakout board is a simple implementation of the
+Analog Devices' I2C, 10K-ohm chip. The potentiometer sports 256 resistance steps
+and can work with a power source from 2.7v to 5.5v. The pins act similarly to a
+passive resistive potentiometer, but require that voltages placed on any of the
+three pins not exceed the power supply voltage or drop below ground potential.
+
+The Cedar Grove AD5245 custom breakout board provides power and signal connections
+for I2C and the potentiometer chip. The AD5245 is also integrated with the
+AD9833 ADSR Precision Waveform Generator FeatherWing.
