Thanks, no rush, I have only just started using it and was starting to design the circuit - hence my search for a part. ---

In case it is of interest to you, I have located the manufacturer’s datasheet. It is at [https://en.ai-thinker.com/Uploads/file/20231016/20231016032622\_13559.pdf](https://en.ai-thinker.com/Uploads/file/20231016/20231016032622_13559.pdf). ---

Great, thank you. One slight problem, which does not affect my use of the part, when opened Fritzing reported an error “unable to create renderer for the file”: ![image](https://forum.fritzing.org/uploads/default/original/3X/a/f/afb4914e2ee7a59c26f5a9ce9f850df7b520d6eb.png) Will this be a problem for other users? ---

Huh, loaded perfectly fine in my machine. I’ll check again ---

The supplied .fzpz file works fine for me on Fritzing 1.0.6 as well: ![capture](https://forum.fritzing.org/uploads/default/original/3X/b/f/bf738032dd152e8efea543f77b7bfce0b1b3899b.jpeg) ![capture1](https://forum.fritzing.org/uploads/default/original/3X/6/b/6b7e5fb935f7c6a8877e17e82e5a3082356c63ce.jpeg) ![capture2](https://forum.fritzing.org/uploads/default/original/3X/1/f/1faea8c455e4f62457c19afd439f04fe026ab3b7.jpeg) It looks like you have a problem of some kind on your machine.Your machine looks to be having a problem reading or rendering the schematic svg file for some reason.

That explains it - I am running an old version (0.9.3), so I will update it to 1.0.6. ---

Okay, works fine now, version 1.0.6 on Windows 11 (my old version was from my Windows 10 machine). ---

Yes on 0.9.3b I get the same error, the schematic svg won’t render. Don’t know why because schematic looks normal. Peter
