Hi all,
I've already got some Microchip PIC's (18F1320 & 16F88) and am looking to build a USB HID controller with say 12 buttons. I'm pretty certain the 16F88 doesn't support hardware USB, but i'm unsure about the 18F1320 chip, however - i have seen that it may be possible to program a software implementation for USB and then some scanning code for a button matrix to allow for the large number of inputs.
I have already tried a google search for this kind of thing, but all i can find are solutions using the ATmega8, but i don't want to really spend much more when i already have these Microchips. If you could provide any direction for this kind of project, then i would be very grateful.
Kind regards,
James
