Overview

The Binho Nova brings Multi-Protocol USB Host Adapters into the 21st Century. No more fumbling through development with cumbersome, clunky, out-dated adapters. Let your productivity soar to new heights!

With support for I2C, SPI, UART, 1-WIRE, SWI protocols all in one slim, robust package, it may even be the last adapter you’ll ever need...

Description

The Binho Nova Multi-Protocol USB Host Adapter allows one to interface their computer directly to hardware circuits. This device is powered by the USB connection to the host PC and is also able to provide downstream power to test circuits.  

The Binho Nova features 5 signal pins, 1 x 3v3 pin, 1 x V​USB​ pin, and 3 x GND pins on its 10pin wire harness. The wire harness terminates with a female 1.27mm 2x5 IDC connector. In IO Mode, the 5 signal pins can be used for varying functions such as Digital Input, Digital Output, PWM Output, Digital Interrupt (on rising edge, falling edge, or change), Analog Input, or Analog Output. 

Additionally, the host adapter is able to utilize these pins to communicate on several digital buses: I2C, SPI, UART, (Dallas)1-Wire, and (Atmel) Single-Wire Interface. While in these modes of operation, remaining available pins can be assigned to other related or unrelated purposes such as gpio, interrupts, chip selects, PWM signals, or analog input or outputs. 

The Binho Nova is ideal for manual testing during firmware development and debugging as well as a perfect way to automate hardware testing and validation. A common use-case of this product in production environments is for EEPROM/Flash Memory programming along with functional testing activities.
