I have a project to do with an embedded processor where i would like to
hang a "thumb drive" on the USB port of one of Microchip's PIC devices.
The idea is that the thumb drive is used for data storage which a user
can remove from my product, plug into his desktop/laptop, and retrieve
the data.
The PIC device embedded in my product would need to be a host for the
thumb drive.
I see some pretty good info on Microchip's web site about using their
parts as USB peripherals, but nothing about use as a host. Are the PIC
parts up to the job? Has anyone ever used a PIC device as a USB host?
Fortunately, it wouldn't need to be a full-featured host. Only enough to
handle the thumb drive. What do you folks think? Is it feasible?
