Does this cable have FTDI chip? I am having trouble conjecting SparkFun Thing Dev board to Arduino. I have looked all over on the site and find nothing that mentions that capability. I am assuming so since it is shown with the board but want to confirm.
Thanks in advance.

No. USB micro-B Cable - 6 Foot does not have an in-built FTDI chip. This one has: https://www.sparkfun.com/products/9717
No, the cabledoes not have one…see the link above for one that does
The Thing Dev, however, “The SparkFun ESP8266 Thing Dev is a development board that has been solely designed around the ESP8266, with an integrated FTDI USB-to-Serial chip.” has one on-board
