Description
The Steg USB-UART protocol converter module provides a bridge between a USB host and a 12-pin Pmod™ compatible socket configured as a UART.
Steg supports two modes:
- PMOD UART to USB bridge
- Stand-alone USB to UART bridge device
Steg also provides 4 GPIO pins that can be read or written to with the (low-speed) USB HID protocol.
Steg is powered by the USB connection and does not provide power to the PMOD connector.
