Can the PIC microcontroller be a USB Host for perhiperals ?
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
