Re: [microblaze-uclinux] USB spartan3E500 revD



Hi John,

Thank you very much for the answer. 
I'll buy the USB2 module and try with the driver you mentioned.

Best regards,
Darko T.

I would like to test usb webcam and spartan3E500 board. As far as I can see, the USB port on the board is only for JTAG programming. It seems that the easiest and fastest solution is to buy Digilent USB2 module and attach it to FX2 connector on the board.

Is this module supported with drivers in uclinux? Would the usb port be seen as a usb port so I can connect webcam, or usb stick...?

I haven't used this exact module, however it uses the same (or similar) Cypress chipset as the Xilinx ML50x boards, and we posted a USB controller for that recently to this list.  You should expect a bit of integration work get it going, but all of the hard work is done.

Here is the thread - check the followups because there was one file missing in the original posting.
