Open Source M.2 M-Key to A/E-Key Adapter (Google Coral, Hailo, etc)

With this adapter, you can connect Google Coral or Hailo AI accelerators that uses A/E-key form factors (as opposed to M-key). 

This way, you no longer need to buy a separate PCIe HAT/HAB for using AI accelerators (Google coral, Hailo, etc) that do not use the same M.2 M-key connector as NVMe drives.

Without this adapter, to plug-in Google Coral or a A/E-key card, you usually need to disassemble your setup and mount a separate HAT that supports A/E-key M.2 connector.

With this, you can keep your existing PCIe HAT and simply plug this in.

I designed this open source simple adapter that lets you connect any A/E-key cards to most Raspberry Pi PCIe HATs/HABs made for storage.

You can access the design files on my GitHub repo below.
