Title A new approach to embedded applications based on PIC microcontrollers use USB interface to communicate with PC
Authors Anton Stoilov

Abstract

This paper presented one possibility to development a simple and small component count USB data acquisition system, used Delphi on PC side to communicate. The main core of USB device is PIC18F4550. This device affords an opportunity to switch different sensors and registered their evi-dences via USB interface on PC. All received data was storages in .txt file, with standard structure. The software support for the data acquisition system device includes the sources of the program on the chip and the Windows application communicated with device as well as the driver. The real device was pro-duced, tested and analyzed. The results are presented in this article.
