Hi all,
I am in search for a microcontroller with a USB interface. Lots of them are available, but I would like to have a MASTER USB capability (my device will act as a hub). As I do not require USB 1.1 (only very small pieces of information to be exchanged) I want to select a, 8-bit device. Cheap of course.
Does anyone have a reference to such a controller in mind?
Thanks, Bruno.
This device can be relatively easily interfaced with most controllers I think

It rather depends what else you want to do with the controller itself.
As Peter pointed out Vinculum make an embedded host chip. GHI Electronics make the USBWiz/AlFAT chips.
Cypress make a number of embedded USB hosts for example, the CY7C6300 with supporting source code and development software.
Maxim have the MAX3421 USB host/device that is accessed through an SPI interface (no software support available from Maxim yet). These are about $5 one-off though you can probably get free samples from Maxim.

True.
I suggest you to have USB host with its host stack provided. Example : AT43USB380, which has USB host stack, USB MSD driver, USB Printer driver, etc. These drivers will cost you a lot, if you have to build it yourself.

The AT90USB1287 AVR with USB Host might work?

If you need MCU + USB Host, then the AT90USB1287 AVR might work
