Development Boards & Kits - AVR I/O Explorer USB
The is a I/O explorer USB board. It is a USB peripheral device that allows programmatic access from a personal computer to various external input/output I/O devices. Using the Adept software developer"s kit SDK and the Adept runtime system, it is possible to write application programs running under either the Microsoft Windows or Linux operating systems. This perform various kinds of I/O operations to devices on the I/O explorer board itself or through the I/O explorer to devices external to the computer. The I/O explorer provides a number of I/O devices on the board itself, as well as RC servo connectors and Pmod connectors that allow access to devices external to the I/O explorer. In addition to its use as a dedicated USB peripheral device, the I/O explorer can also be used as a microcontroller development board. It features two Atmel AVR microcontrollers, AT90USB646 and ATmega165P, one having USB device capability.
