## Description

The Adafruit TRRS Trinkey is a USB-A plug-in microcontroller designed specifically for assistive technology. It combines an ATSAMD21 processor with a switched TRRS 3.5mm audio jack, connecting all 6 jack pins (tip, ring 1, ring 2, sleeve, plus tip switch and ring 1 switch) to analog-capable GPIO pins. This allows it to detect plug insertion, read switches, potentiometers, or serve as a fully programmable USB HID device. Simply plug it into any USB-A port and program it with CircuitPython or the Arduino IDE. Over USB, it can act as a serial console, MIDI device, or keyboard/mouse HID — making it easy to map physical switches to custom keyboard commands, mouse actions, or chording patterns. A STEMMA QT / Qwiic port provides optional I2C expansion or two additional inputs. Key Features ATSAMD21E18 Processor – 48 MHz 32-bit Cortex M0+, 256KB flash, 32KB RAM Switched TRRS Jack – All 6 contacts (tip, ring 1, ring 2, sleeve, tip switch, ring 1 switch) connected to analog-capable GPIO pins Flexible Input Support – Up to 3 simple switches, 2 analog potentiometers, or a combination (with a stereo/mic splitter) Native USB – USB serial, MIDI, keyboard/mouse HID, and USB mass storage CircuitPython & Arduino IDE – UF2 bootloader for easy drag-and-drop programming STEMMA QT / Qwiic Port – JST SH 4-pin connector for I2C devices or two additional inputs Built-in RGB NeoPixel LED – Programmable status indicator Reset Button – Restart code or enter bootloader mode USB-A Plug-In Design – Slides directly into any USB-A port; works with phones/tablets via USB adapter Open Source Hardware – Full control over your assistive technology Ideal For Assistive technology switches and adaptive input devices Custom USB HID controllers (keyboard, mouse, macro commands) Connecting 3.5mm AT switches to computers and tablets MIDI controllers and musical interfaces Chording input devices Package Contents 1× Adafruit TRRS Trinkey USB Key
