Bus Pirate

Description

The Bus Pirate is a low-level interface to:

  • 1-Wire
  • UART
  • I2C
  • SPI
  • JTAG
  • raw 2-wire
  • raw 3-wire
  • PC keyboard
  • HD44780 LCDs
  • MIDI

It includes an ADC and can bit bash these protocols at the wire level. It can also be put into UART bridge mode, acting as a simple serial port.
