USB Connectivity
Universal Serial Bus is a bus standard for serial communication. Originally intended as a replacement for serial and parallel connections on a PC to connect mice, keyboards and printers, it has grown to be the standard interface between a PC and its many and varied peripherals. Since the addition of Embedded host and OTG, the interface is now expanded beyond the PC to any platforms that would benefit from its features.
With Microchip’s scalable development environment and free libraries, you can quickly integrate USB functions into your existing application in a single microcontroller, thus reducing total system cost, development risk and time to market.
