In my lab, it's always device driver hell—I don't have two systems that are identical. This is quite different from most corporate environments but typical of most homes. Multiple device drivers are a headache to maintain, and they cause other problems as well...

Half-Duplex RS-485 Transceivers Measure Just 2 By 2 mmThe small footprints of the MAX13485E and MAX13486E half-duplex RS-485 transceivers suit them well for space-constrained applications such as motor control and mobile sensors. The devices measure only 2 by 2 mm, saving more than 50% of the board space needed by other transceivers.

Digital Potentiometer Is Simple To ProgramThe CAT5126 Digitally Programmable Potentiometer (DPP) from Catalyst Semiconductor Inc. offers one-time wiper programmability via a simple two-wire interface. Designers can set the wiper's value after power-on and disable the interface to prevent further adjustment. Or, they can maintain the interface in the operating condition.
