Use CircuitPython boards on the TI-83 Premium CE calculator! @tiplanetnews @TICalculators @circuitpython #circuitpython
The new Texas Instruments TI-Python external module for the TI-83 Premium CE calculator runs CircuitPython and has an Atmel ATSAMD21E18 chip, some calculator hackers at TI Planet figured out how to get many of the CircuitPython powered boards to run with the TI-83! – Twitter.
Looks like you need to get a USB OTG Cable – Micro USB to Mini USB – M/M – USB OTG and possibly change the VID/PID, using a tool like Zadig, so the TI calc can interact with the non-TI hardware.
Zardam in the TI-Planet forums made a couple of these to load up.

Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, or even use Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for MakeCode, CircuitPython, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.
