Hello

I want suggestion for a USB Host chip or mcu that can handle communication devices like bluetooth or wifi or devices like that

Arduino has a ready USB host shield but I don't think it is professional enough

So any help is appreciated
 

Hi,

Depending on your application and memory requirement, you need to choose any MCU.

I have worked with ARM9 and ARM11 MCUs over USB and SDIO interface over Linux. I think you can choose any of them as they work good over USB for Linux and you will be able to get good throughput some where around 18-20 Mbps using USB interface.
 
Thanks for the reply

But I need a lower throuhput and less complexity as I am not familiar with arm and RTOSs

a chip or module would do it as I am working with a certain microcontroller and can't change it by now

any other suggestions ?
 


You mentioned Arduino, the MAX3421E is available in a ready made shield:

USB Host Shield MAX3421E

Or is this what you were referring to in your previous post?


Cypress manufactures a line a USB Host/OTG Controllers:

Cypress USB Hosts


An interesting ATMEGA32 based USB Host Controller:

SIAM32 USB HC


There are also several Open Source FPGA Cores available which would allow you to implement a USB Host Controller on a FPGA.


You may want to checkout Universal Serial Bus Organization's Website and use the product search feature:



Although it is a bit of an awkward search interface, it may present additional possibilities.
