## Description
This **experimental** library provides a X9C base class, a X9C10X class and
four derived classes for specific digital potentiometer.

This function allows users e.g. to save the position returned by **store()** in EEPROM

Note: **begin()** changed in 0.2.0 as the implicit parameter position
was removed for the explicit function call to **setPosition()**.
If **setPosition()** is not called, the device uses the last stored
value as position. Unfortunately the position cannot be read from the device.
This will result in a mismatch between the internal position and the

Since 0.2.1 the function **uint8_t restoreInternalPosition(uint8_t position)**

#### Concept read position
If you need to make a robust system with X9C devices you can solder two devices "in parallel".
One to control whatever you need to control, and the other to create a feedback loop through analogRead().
Lets name them feedback device and control device.
The two devices should share the select, direction and pulse pins in hardware.
This way they will get the exact same pulses and signals and would therefore be in the exact same position
after initialization.
The feedback device would be a voltage divider, splitting 5 Volts in 100 level.
To read these levels you need at least an 8 bit ADC or better.
This setup would allow you to read the position in the control device 100% of the time.
The price is at least twice as high in terms of hardware, the performance will be less at some times
and the code will be slightly more complex
It might be possible to measure the voltage of the wiper of the control device.
However that might not always be easy or possible, due to voltage used, etc.
## Future
- update documentation
- concept of **read()** => put 2 X9C parallel and read one with analogRead().
- test different platforms
- add error codes ?
- add examples
