Reading a slave USB with a pic

[rmteo]

There are PIC's that support slave, host as well OTG. However, skimask is correct that you have to look at something other than USB as PBP does not support those PIC's.

I've never looked at it in depth but FTDI has a USB host controller called Viniculum which has UART, SPI & parallel interfaces. It may give you a way to do what you want.

They have some sample applications interfacing PICs to USB slave devices. Unfortunately they are in C but they do show that what you want to do is possible with their chip. The chip is about $10 or for about $20 you can get an eval board.

This is what I'm looking for!

Thanks all

Let us know how it works out - along with your PBP code.

Order executed!
Sure I will report all in this same post!
