Hi,
my circuit requires a micro controller to basically enable and disable a few ICs and finally send the digital data output - from the output of the rest of the circuit - to my laptop via USB interface.
No processing of the data is to be done inside the controller.
The only requirements are fastest processing time possible and USB compliant interface.
Which micro controller is the best for this application?
I had a look at PIC18F series
But any other micro controller better suited for this purpose from an different manufacturer would also do..
 

unless you are building 1000's of units I would go for a PIC24 device
for example, we recently used a PIC24FJ64GB004

to interface to a Bytronic Control Systems Trainer using the USB HID protocol
**broken link removed**

using Visual C++, C# or VB.NET it is possible to build a GUI to control the trainer and display results


how much data are you transmitting and how often? e.g. 100bytes/seconds, 10000bytes/second, etc?
