How to use startKIT as USB TAP device?

Post by ergs5 »

I wish to create a generalized USB TAP device on the StartKit. I would like to avoid buying any slice devices, because it's probably not necessary. What I want this device to do is to act as a general host device to anything I plug in to it so I can sniff the traffic in the console window in the xTIMEcomposer. I assume I will have to set up some of the GPIO pins in some way and perhaps use some code from the sc_usb_device example. Has anyone done this or written a tutorial for it? I figured I'd ask before I dive in.

You will not be able to use the USB part of startKIT as this is available only on the debugger tile. But, you should be able to sniff data using xSCOPE.  You will find more details from the following answer posted in the Q&A section:
