mdot pin 8 and 9 like USB

[Sergio Valiente]

Hello,
Are This pins available for direct USB implementation in hardware? Can I connect this pins directly with a USB connector. Is it a general purpose use serial interface whith my aplication? Why aren’t it in the pin description mbed webpage of mdot?
thanks

Sergio,

Those pins are connected to the USB interface on the mDot. The reason we don’t explicitly put it in the pinout diagram is because the mbed library doesn’t support USB for all platforms.

Hope this helps!

Cheers,
Mike

Hello Mike,
So I can’t use the USB with mbed platform? How do I should program this interface?
If I use mbed online compiler, only can I use pin 8 and 9 like GPIOs?
thanks

Sergio,

You can use the USB peripheral on the mDot, but the mbed-os library doesn’t provide USB support. You’d need to work down at the CMSIS or register level – there aren’t any nice USB APIs available like mbed-os provides for other peripherals.

Cheers,
Mike

Ok! thanks
