Hi, i would like to program USB drivers for certain hardware applications. Ex to communicate with an 8051 system. Is there any software that could make this process easy? What else would you recommend. Any available code is a great help.
Thanks
"I know of no '51 derivative that can work as an USB master"
I don't actually know of any, either - but there might be some hiding somewhere...?
Unfortunately, the Keil database search does not distinguish Host/Device/OTG - it just has "USB"
:-(
I seem to recall hearing that some AVR has a USB Host - if that's true, it shouldn't be beyond an 8051...
Of course, if you do want a USB Host, and this is the start of a new project, it'd probably make more sense to look at an ARM-based controller - I'm sure there's some of them with USB Hosts and/or OTG...

Anyhow, if this is not a large production project look at ftdi it will save you a lot of hassle.
what is the projected volume?
