The schematic is publicly available permitting home hobbyists, the educational community, and anyone to copy the hardware for their own use. Segger offers sample software and is in active deployment of numerous sample applications.

The emPower USB-host is a low-cost board for applications that require two USB-host ports in a simple and small design. Segger's software including emUSB-Host, emLoad, and embOS are ready to run on the board. Accessing the board with a debug probe can be achieved via the 10-pin Cortex-M connector on the board.
