The Coral Dev Board Mini is a single-board computer that provides fast machine learning (ML) inferencing in a small form factor. It’s primarily designed as an evaluation device for the Accelerator Module (a surface-mounted module that provides the Edge TPU), but it’s also a fully-functional embedded system you can use for various on-device ML projects.

We use a special library called adafruit_blinka (named after Blinka, the CircuitPython mascot) to provide the layer that translates the CircuitPython hardware API to whatever library the Linux board provides.
For example, on Raspberry Pi we use the python RPi.GPIO library. For any I2C interfacing we'll use ioctl messages to the /dev/i2c device. For SPI we'll use the spidev python library, etc. These details don't matter so much because they all happen underneath the adafruit_blinka layer.
