The Binho Nova Multi-Protocol USB Host Adapter connects your computer directly to hardware circuits via I2C, SPI, UART, and GPIO. Powered over USB, it can also supply downstream power to test circuits. No microcontroller programming required — control hardware devices directly from your computer.

Uses the standard USB Communications Device Class (CDC) driver for plug-and-play compatibility with most modern operating systems. Supports CircuitPython via Blinka, giving you access to a huge library of sensor and component drivers.
