| Andy Neil said: Well, a common question here (and on other similar forums) is, "How can I connect <some USB device> to an 8051?" - and the asnwer is, "You can't, because that would require the 8051 to be a USB Host". Well, the correct answer would be "Get a device that is a USB host (FPGA? ASIC? other uC? PC?), connect 8051 (with USB device functionality) and <some USB device> to first device, write driver for first device." "Oh ... you meant without using additional hardware that costs 20 times more than the 8051?" ;) |
