Examples

• capture_hid_report.c is a USB host sample program which print HID reports received from device. Open serial port and connect devices to pico. Default D+/D- is gp0/gp1. Call pio_usb_add_port() to use additional ports.
• usb_device.c is a HID USB FS device sample which moves mouse cursor every 0.5s. External 1.5kohm pull-up register is necessary to D+ pin (Default is gp0).
• host_hid_to_device_cdc.c is similar to capture_hid_report.c which print mouse/keyboard report from host port to device port's cdc. TinyUSB is used to manage both device (native usb) and host (pio usb) stack.

Resource Usage

• Two PIO
  • One PIO is for USB transmitter using 22 instruction and one state machine
  • Another PIO is for USB receiver using 31 instruction and two state machine
• Two GPIO for D+/D- (Series 22ohm resitors are better)
• 15KB ROM and RAM
• (For Host) One 1ms repeating timer
• (For Device) One PIO IRQ for receiver
