#177277 - Found what?
Responding to: ???'s previous message

There's a whole load of projects on that page - which one are you talking about?

Do you mean this: http://www.harbaum.org/till/i2c_...ndex.shtml ?

Till Harbaum said:
The i2c-tiny-usb project is based on:

• The Linux USB project and the Linux i2c implementation
• The windows driver and test application are based on the libusb-win32
AVR-USB, a pure software implementation of USB for the AVR platform
USBtiny, another software usb implementation for the AVR

Is this didn't work properly?

Are you referring to Michael & Per's comments about bit-banged USB projects found on the web?
Per Westermark said:
You don't seem to take a no for an answer. Sometimes that is a strength. In this case, it is a huge weakness.

Forget about it!

You do not (!) want to be involved in any software bit-banged USB just to send commands to a microcontroller to perform I2C operations. Get a USB-to-serial interface and interface with any microcontroller. Or get a controller that already supports USB. It is a outerworldly feat to manage bit-banged USB and modifying the code would not be simple. And you will never know when a bit-banged solution will fail because it is living on the margin.
