Can the PIC microcontroller be a USB Host for perhiperals ?

Hello Ceian,

i am doing a project that contains a bar code reader that reads the barcode from a product and the transfer it to a PIC microcontroller that will forward it to a ZIGBEE transceiver.

i want the PIC microcontroller to take the input from the barcode reader so i want a communication link between them?

i am thinking of USB connection so i should made the PIC as a USB HOSt ?

is that possible? or if there are another ways to get the barcode and the pic communicated /

Thank you

Ahmed Salah

    @godfather: That schematic isn't for a USB host!

    @mosh11: To make your PIC a USB host, look at using a #-Link-Snipped-#.
