This component meets the user's development needs in a multi-platform
environment.
Note: USB adapter board has two MicroUSB interfaces: USB_DATA, USB_PWR.
USB_DATA: Data supply multiplex interface. In most cases, just using this interface can meet the power
and communication needs.
USB_PWR: Auxiliary power interface. The USB interface of some development platforms has a weak
current drive capability, and auxiliary power can be used.
