Proteus Simulation PIC as USB host for MAss storage class .

[deeplearns]

Hi ,

I wish to know If i can simulate Usb Mass Storage Class in Proteus with the PIC18F as host .
I have ran several other examples in which the PIC acts as an device , so the computer loads the driver sucessfully and the thum drive can be seen in the Explorer and files inside can be edited or copied .
But now i want to use the PIC to detect the thumb drive , ie to write firmware for PIC as host for the pendrive and create a filesystem and write files (transfer reports )to the pendrive so that when i connect it to the PC i can see the files exclusively .
I have used the MLA code and am able to detect the thumb drive and enumerate it .But after that i am facing problems .

Thanks .

the PIC18 will only act as a USB device (e.g. mouse, mass storage device, etc) to a USB host such as a PC - it does not have the facilities to act as a USB host to a device, see

if you require a PIC to act as a USB host you will need to move to a PIC24 or PIC32

Actually i am using PIC32 , but didnt knew if PIC 18 doesnt support host mode,appreciate the info provided .

The reason i went to pic 18 is i wanted to simulate the ckt in Proteus and PIC32 is unavailable in proteus .
So i guess i will have to use 24F series as it does support host mode , but the question remais will it be possible for me to simulate it in proteus , as host mode maas storage class for a pen drive .



Thanks .
