Hello,

I'm currently developing an application under linux
that would communicate through the USB bus with Microchip
Pic16C745 and Pic16C765.

Microchip implemented the USB protocol so that the
devices appears as a HID and in fact Linux recognize
it as an HID device with the path /dev/usb/hiddev0 and
/dev/usb/hiddev1

I found some example application here
http://www.frogmouth.net/hid-doco/c514.html

The Pic device contain a firmware already tested under windows.

The device is correctely opened as a file, but I'm having
difficulties in read and write byte to/from the device.

Does anyone have experience in communicating using HID?

Is there any read/write example application?

Thank in advance for your help
Ivano
