This is a development platform for the Vinculum-II (VNC2) USB Host/Device controller, combining the Vinculo motherboard with the VNC2 Debug/Programming module. The Vinculum-II supports dual USB Host/Device interfaces, FIFO, SPI, I2C, PWM, and UART.  On board is a 10 bit, 8 channel ADC and 38 GPIO which are available for quick prototyping. This development platform features a free software development suite including a full featured C compiler, real time operating system, and USB Host/Device software stack for HID, CDC, HUB, printer and BOMS (FAT file system). The new starter kit (VNCLO-START1) provides a cost-effective rapid development solution at a cost effective price.
The VNC2 debugger/programmer module consists of a miniature board with a USB miniB connector, which provides USB connectivity to Vinculum-II IDE development tools running on a PC. This module can be used to program and debug firmware running on the VNC2 device.
