Hi people,

Satish, I am using LPC2362. Thanks for letting me know that it can be done.
Now I will design my codes to suit both SD and USB storage,

Thanks Tim for letting me know that it wont be easy. I do understand that
USB is quite complex to handle.

And Richard thanks for the advice. I will certainly look into it.

Since you need a chip with USB host, why not just go all the way and use a device that supports Linux or uClinux? Then you don't have to implement much of anything. Code is already written.

www.tincantools.com Hammer, for example. Gumstix for another.

I've used FatFs with memory sticks, but you need a USB host
implementation to make it work. This is a lot harder than just reading a
SD card using SPI.

Hi Nishant,

We can implement the FatFs for USB memory sticks.I too have did a
project on that and i have used it for LPC2388 how about your controller is?

Hi people,

Has anyone tried FatFs for USB memory sticks? At the moment I am looking
into FatFs for SD cards but I will also have to create Fat files into the
USB memory as well. I haven't looked into USB at the moment. I ask this
question because if it is possible then I would modularize my FatFs and SPI
interface to also include USB driver.
