CosmicSDK Documentation
Welcome to the official documentation for CosmicSDK, the native C++ SDK and C API designed to interface with Binho USB host adapters, Supernova and Pulsar.
CosmicSDK provides high-performance, low-level access to the full feature set of Binho devices, enabling developers to integrate, control, and test hardware across multiple communication protocols with ease and precision.
Whether you’re developing custom test automation software, building embedded systems prototypes, or validating device drivers, CosmicSDK offers a clean, extensible, and production-ready interface to accelerate your workflow.
Features
Native C++ Integration: High-performance SDK for direct control of Binho USB host adapters.
C and C++ APIs: Easily adaptable to any programming language you use.
Dynamic and Static Libraries: Choose between dynamic (.dll/.so) and static (.lib/.a) linking options based on your project’s needs.
Blocking API Functions: All API functions are blocking, ensuring operations complete before proceeding to the next step. Optionally, an asynchronous API is available for non-blocking operations.
Callback Mechanism: Register callbacks to handle asynchronous notifications from the host adapters, enabling responsive and event-driven programming.
Cross-Platform Support: Compatible with Windows, macOS, and Linux environments.
