Updated the CircuitPython repo to include a new option for this sensor. The sensor does not output ASCII over serial, rather it is binary data. This can lead to discomfort for some users who would rather have formatted ASCII that can be immediately consumed in a terminal or parsed by a program. To address this use-case, I selected a device that is inexpensive ($5) yet has enough resources to host a CircuitPython interpreter and space left over to perform the binary to ASCII conversion. A user may customize the python code to their desired behavior, including fan management.
A bonus ( for me ) is the USB-C port that is native on my MacPro.
