Programmable USB Hub: A USB hub with per-port power and data

Back this job: https://www.crowdsupply.com/capable-robot-components/programmable-usb-hub

Programmable USB Hub becomes part of the Microchip Get Launched layout competitors!

In enhancement to being a 4-port USB 2 High-Speed center, this Programmable USB center is:
A CircuitPython based advancement board
A bridge in between your computer system and also I2C (by means of Sparkfun Qwiic adapters), GPIO, and also SPI (using its mikroBUS header).
A power supply, supplying 6 A of 5 V power to downstream gadgets as well as 13 mA resolution surveillance (per-port). Port power is switchable and also separately limitable.
A USB to TTL Serial adapter.
A versatile ingrained electronic devices examination as well as advancement device. USB information sets are independently switchable, enabling you to imitate tool elimination as well as insertion using software application.
Mountable.
Functionally versatile. Open up resource python motorists on the upstream host and also Python firmware on the interior MCU enable the habits of this USB center to be conveniently transformed to fit your application as well as setting.

The Capable Robot Programmable USB center is housed in a durable extruded light weight aluminum room.
Inside installed LED light pipelines straight condition details from 10 RGB LEDs to the front panel for very easy monitoring of center state.
The back of the unit reveals the upstream USB link and also a USB port to interact and also re-program with the inner MCU. Subjected are 2 I2C buses (through Sparkfun Qwiic adapters), the Programmable USB center’s UART, and also 2x GPIO. Input power is given to the center by a securing Molex port.

4x Downstream USBG. Information lines to each USB port can be detached by means of software application commands. This enables wayward USB gadgets to be “unplugged” essentially as well as re-enumerated.
USB electronic signals can be improved to assist drive long cable televisions.
