First, the GPX and RESET pins are swapped and the second it has power issues. Old Sparkfun shield (part no: DEV-09628) with v1.0 of the library Making the Sparkfun shields workĬhoose the instructions from the right section below based on your shield and library version.

The library works out of the box and you don’t need to modify anything.īut if you have already bought the shield from Sparkfun, especially the old (like me) then read the next section to find out the changes that you have to do to the library to make it work with the shield. If you have not bought the shield yet, then just go ahead and buy the shield from Circuits Home and use v2.0 of the library. Use it only if you really need to or have to use some other library that depends on it, otherwise use only v2.0. Out of these two, the v1.0 of the library is kind of deprecated. Both of them are from Oleg of Circuits Home. The following are the two libraries that are available for USB Host Shield.

New Sparkfun shield ( part no DEV-09947).Old Sparkfun shield ( part no DEV-09628).The following are the various versions of USB Host Shields from different manufacturers. Interface a USB Missile Launcher with Arduino.

Make Android phone interact with Arduino using Android Open Accessory protocol.

The following are examples which I have built using the shield. USB Host shield can be used to interface any USB device to Arduino. Once you have this shield, your Arduino board can act as USB Host and you can connect other USB devices like keyboard, mouse or even an Android phone and communicate with the device from Arduino itself. The USB Host shield has a separate chip (usually Max3421E), which provides USB Host support. For a successful communication to happen using USB protocol, you need at least one of the device to be the host, which means that you cannot connect two keyboards together and expect them to communicate with each other. When you connect any USB device like a mouse or a keyboard to your computer, your computer acts as the host and controls (or polls) the client device (keyboard or mouse or even an Arduino). The Host device controls the peripheral device and also provides power to it. One is called the host (or server) and the other one is called peripheral (client).

So, what is USB Host support? The USB protocol defines two types of devices. It is a shield which provides USB Host support for Arduino. What is an USB Host Shield?īefore we start, let’s first understand what is an USB Host Shield. One such shield which has many incompatible versions is USB Host Shield and in this post I am going to tell you how you can select the proper shield and also the changes that you have to do to make even the incompatible shields work with the library. But it becomes a problem when the shield is pretty complex (like the USB Host Shield) and you have to use a library and the shields are not compatible with each other. In a way this is good, because as a user you are going to have multiple options. Often there are more than one manufacturer for a single type of shield itself.
