Hi everyone,
I have been trying to find out if it is possible to connect a usb device to a microcontroller and read the signals from the usb pins. I know it is possible with the ps2 connection pins but I'm sure that using a usb would be much more tricky. So far I haven't found anything on the net.
I wish to connect an optical mouse with a usb connection to a microcontroller. I know the connections are 5V, ground, D+ and D- but don't know how to deal with these. I am familiar with using the BasicAtomPro microcontroller. The aim is that i want to be able to read the position signals from the mouse using the atompro and display the x, y co-ordinates as a counter on the screen.
If anybody knows how to do this please let me know.
Thanks
Baksh
