But it is not intended to replace all the other special purpose adapters (USB to UART, JTAG, ...) which probably can better solve specific task because their are: more stable, simpler, more powerful, faster, more stable, cheaper, or more available. | But it is not intended to replace all the other special purpose adapters (USB to UART, JTAG, ...) which probably can better solve specific task because their are: more stable, simpler, more powerful, faster, more stable, cheaper, or more available. | ||
