usb

[Richard Slater]

Hi there people!

Does anyone know where there is a good set of resources for data on the PIC's with USB? I have the data sheet which tells me the raw data, but are there any app. notes available to aid the decision on whether or not to use the PIC for a USB application?

Any hints from people who have used these parts would also be much apprecieated.

I take it the PIC18 devices are not yet available, does anyone know how long it is likely to be before they are?

Thanks alot, in advance

Richard

Here are some comments on not using the 16C7xx series for USB:
<a href="http://www.beyondlogic.org/usb/usbhard.htm#Microchip" TARGET="_blank">http://www.beyondlogic.org/usb/usbhard.htm#Microchip</a>

The basic argument is that once you have used Flash devices,
you don't really want to go back to non-Flash. (UV erasing).
