# Binho Supernova

## Connection to the Test Circuit <a href="#connection-to-the-test-circuit" id="connection-to-the-test-circuit"></a>

The *Binho Supernova Multi-Protocol USB Host Adapter* features an array of connectors including an I2C qwiic 4-pin port, a versatile 2x15 pins connector for I2C/UART/SPI/GPIO functions, and a duo of I3C dedicated 10-pin ports segmented for low and high voltage.

Now you're ready to begin interacting with the device. See the following QuickStart Guides in this section to learn how to interact with the device via your preferred interface.

### Examples of circuit setups

Below are shown two examples of circuit setups where the Binho Supernova host adapter is being used to interact with I3C targets. This illustrates how simple can be to implement a hardware setup and start rapidly to test/develop devices.
