USB Vendor ID

Jul 13, 2007 6 Replies

If I want to devel a USB HID device, I have to buy an USB Vendor ID or there is an alternative?



I've seen that with FTDI chip I don't have to set that ID, as I suppose they use their own Vendor ID.

Thank you, Race.

At this stage, we're not interested in logo licenses, we only need to get a VID for our products: I'm going to ask USB-IF discussion boards about the legality of VID reselling, as I can't find anything on usb.org.

I'll keep you update.
