Yes, there are commercial IO units available that connect to a PC via USB.
There are also chips that will connect a microcontroller such as an 8051 to USB - various options include parallel interface, asyn serial (UART) interface, SPI, etc,... eg, Maxim, FTDI, Silicon Labs, TI There are also 8051-derivatives with on-chip USB; eg, Silicon Labs, TI, Cypress (EZ-USB) Try: http://www.keil.com/dd/search_parm.asp When selecting a chip to build your own unit, you need to carefully consider the driver support available... There's been plenty of discussion before - do the search! |
