Hey guys,

I need to record reeal time data onto a memory device. I found code to store this data on a SD card. Is it possible to store this data on a USB drive directly from a microcontroller? If yes which microcontroller should I use?

Any help appreciated. :)

Chinmay.

Not easily, as most MCUs with USB don't have host mode. Try searching for chips with USB OTG. Microchip has a couple, as do some other manufacturers.

I haven't used it, but the Viniculum VNC1L is supposed to make this rather easy. Theoretically you can use it with any micro you're comfortable with and it takes care of most of the details. There's an evaluation board for it as well.
