AD5272 - 100K with Raspberry Pi 3 model B+ - using i2c

I am testing this AD5272 digital variable resistor and was really not easy to find any info on how to write to the registers in the ic to change resistance.

Data sheet - https://www.analog.com/media/en/technical-documentation/data-sheets/AD5272_5274.pdf

This is how it work in python,

bus.write_i2c_block_data(Address,First byte,[2nd byte up to 32])

------

import smbus

bus = smbus.SMBus(1)

# This write 0x1c and 0x03 to device with address 0x2c. This unlocks the register
bus.write_i2c_block_data(0x2c,0x1c,[0x03])

# This set the wiper to 0 - get around 30Ohms 
bus.write_i2c_block_data(0x2c,0x04,[0x00])

# This set the wiper to 1023 - get 100K 

bus.write_i2c_block_data(0x2c,0x07,[0xff])

I bought this model from DigiKey - AD5272BRMZ-100-RL7CT-ND 

TO solder this I bought a 10MOSP breakout board - LCQT-MSOP10 

Also bought low temperature soldering paste - Chip Quik Inc. / TS391LT 

Used the oven at home to bake it following the graph below.

Used 2.0mm GOOT Desolder Braid to remove soldering bridges
