Post by thread:[EE]: Hands-on USB experiments

Is there any low-cost kit to learn about and experiment with USB interfacing? spam_OUTalbertgoodwillTakeThisOuTyahoo.com _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Hi Albert, Anchorchip, USB simmstick, already mentioned cypress. Check out John Hyde's site at http://www.usb-by-example.com . And http://www.usb.org - developers section for background info.

The Cypress $99 starter kit is pretty good. Although I have found their lack of PC side source code to be a real pain. The Cypress M8 core is nowhere near as flexible as the PIC though, IMHO... coding for the devices is a bit of a challenge :) I am looking forward to seeing the USB enabled PICs that are due out towards the end of this year. Hope Microchip make a real effort on providing some decent source code for BOTH ends of the system...

Check out Microchip's newest part. I understand it ships "any day now."

Take a look at the USBSIMM at http://usbsimm.home.att.net {Quote hidden}> -----Original Message----- > From: Albert Goodwill [albertgoodwillspam_OUTGEOCITIES.COM] > Sent: Friday, August 11, 2000 2:23 PM > To: @spam@PICLISTKILLspamMITVMA.MIT.EDU > Subject: [EE]: Hands-on USB experiments > > > Is there any low-cost kit to learn about and experiment with USB > interfacing? > > KILLspamalbertgoodwillKILLspamyahoo.com > > > > _________________________________________________________ > Do You Yahoo!? > Get your free @yahoo.com address at http://mail.yahoo.com > > > -- > http://www.piclist.com hint: The PICList is archived three different > ways.

> Take a look at the USBSIMM at http://usbsimm.home.att.net The USBSIMM is a great way to experiment with USB. The board has a USB-enabled 8051 (sorry PIClist) with 8k internal RAM and 32k external RAM. The firmware can be downloaded from the PC to run from RAM. A free (limited) compiler is available from KEIL http://www.keil.com. The USBSIMM is SimmStick compatible, see other products at http://www.dontronics.com. The SimmSticks are also a great resource for PIC development. :-) -Rob {Quote hidden}> > > > Is there any low-cost kit to learn about and experiment with USB > > interfacing? > > > > RemoveMEalbertgoodwillTakeThisOuTyahoo.com > > > > > > > > _________________________________________________________ > > Do You Yahoo!? > > Get your free @yahoo.com address at http://mail.yahoo.com > > > > > > -- > > http://www.piclist.com hint: The PICList is archived three different > > ways.
