USB chip

Hello,

Who can help me with some information about the existing USB chips... There are a lot of suppliers and kind of USB chips for HID, Audio, Video. The project I am on now is creating a serial data logger. I use a spy microcontroller board witch catches the RS232 data between 2 devices. The board then has to send the data it receives through USB to the computer (delphi software). I want to use my own protocol en just need a USB chip that sends what I want to send. Could someone please give me some more information about this?

Thanks!

Niek

There

You might want to check out the AT91SAM7S64 which has

2 x UARTs - need to listen to 2 channels USB Timers which can be used to measure baud rate. A CPU which can process data and present it in a way that suits lets say Hyperterminal .

Hi Ulf! You're really with your own opinion here?? Often I see marketing lights in your postings.

Well, I have had tons of problems actually getting access to a newsserver inside Atmel. I doubt that there is more than a few Atmel employees that even know there are such things as news servers. Thats what you get when your boss doesn't even have a computer... (Actually he finally got one half a year ago) Noone in Atmel tells me what to say here, but on the other hand, noone in Atmel that knows I frequent the place has objected. If I like to talk about parts, it may be because I have participated in the definition of many of the micros Atmel is releasing, so blame it on maternal feelings...

In this case Niek wants to have a expand a Zilog part because it does not fit his needs, and the SAM7S64 really will solve his problem because it has the three UARTs and the USB. Occams Razor says a simpler solution is a better solution, IIRC. This assumes it is OK to do some USB programming. If he does not want to know anyting about USB, then the FTDI is probably a better solution but I assume that Niek will know this for himself.

OK Ulf. I know whats your feeling because my last employer even doesn't know what usenet is and why he should look on it for potential customers. It is an electronics design company for CAD and customer-specific embedded systems hardware development for industrial design. Even they have a website created in june 2004 and never actuated until now (There is only one page on their site ;-) BTW: The most hits I get for my products are from Google and usenet groups specific to my products.

I like to hear more from you in the future :-)

I got a lot of positive feedback from readers of the newsgroup and I quite frequently meet strangers who know who I am, because they read my comments. This is kinda fun.

Got into a similar problem now at home. Got my 10 Mbit Fibre/Ethernet connection installed in May Have been trying to convince the people in the house to get this for 5 years and quickly realized that the Internet provider canned their news server 6 months earlier.

There are enough (free) newsserver out there. At least the server of the uni Berlin is free to all (I'm using it because my cable i-net provider havn't a newsserver).

Ulf is definitely biased, but I don't see anything wrong in his posts. At least we all learn for differnt chips and opportunities which are available from Atmel. It's up to you to view the datasheets and choose which way to go.
