The Story
An RP2040 board with hardware USB Device (plug) and software USB Host (socket)!
The USB Interposer from 8086 is a compact RP2040-based board with two USB ports, the USB 2 Type-A plug is connected to the hardware USB device and the USB socket is connected to GPIO pins allowing it to be used with Pico-PIO-USBÂ (a USB host/device implementation using PIO of Raspberry Pi Pico).
The board also has 2 LEDs on each side (red/amber), 3-pin SH sockets for UART and SWD debug, and a 4-pin SH socket (STEMMA QT/Qwiic) for I2C. The BOOT button is also available as a user button.
The USB Host port can be used with CircuitPython (USB HOST) or Arduino software.
