That's a good move. I have no problem with the board's small
connector. I just wanted to be able to plug in a USB device, so an
adapter seemed like a good idea.

That's what I was looking for. I was thinking of a j-link but I don't
like the idea of paying a ton of money for their DLL SDK. I'm mostly a
PC programmer and I will want to interact with the USB on the PC side.
Is there an open API for this MPE USB device? I understand that you
can likely use it as a high-speed COM port but I want a way to get to
RDI debugging commands.
