Introduction

This solution is a simple solution for connecting external GPIO, UART, PWM, I2C, SPI master, SPI slave protocol devices to Android phones or tablet via USB. Supports USB host mode above Android 3.1, Android applications can realize data communication via USB, users do not need to perform any additional actions, including obtaining Android root permissions, additional development kits or special kernel drivers. In addition, users do not have to worry about Android system upgrades, no software migration, simple to use, and easy to develop. The figure below shows its internal block diagram.
