I just took delivery on a batch of MAX3421Es from Maxim. They are available for sale in the store for $8.00.

The MAX3421E makes the vast collection of USB peripherals available to any microprocessor, ASIC, or DSP when it operates as a USB host. For point-to-point solutions, for example, a USB keyboard or mouse interfaced to an embedded system, the firmware that operates the MAX3421E can be simple since only a targeted device is supported.

This controller is supported by open source firmware that I’m developing for 8-bit microcontrollers, including PIC18s and Arduino.

First batch of MAX3421E breakout boards has arrived.

First batch of MAX3421E arrived today, three days ahead of schedule, from PCBcart. The quality is good. It’s now for sale in my store, price $8.50.

In a week, I will be selling main Maxim parts for this board, as well as less exotic components, such as 12MHz quartz crystals and USB A connectors. If you want to get notified when it happens, send me an e-mail. In the mean time, you can try to go sample route :-), Maxim is known to be generous, at least to US residents.

[Update] I now have MAX3421Es for sale, price $8.00.
