Connecting to USB Serial?
« on: October 28, 2014, 10:13:59 am »
Could a digispark original or pro be used to communicate with a usb serial device? 

I'd like to connect to a usb ant+ stick and turn it into a wireless sensor. 

Pretty sure the answer is no, and that both devices are acting as slave but I thought I'd check.  I know the pro has both wifi and bluetooth shields, but I assume it's a direction connection and not over usb.

No - they act as a device not a host - the Pro could possibly work with a USB host shield for Arduino, but there probably isn't enough ram to run their libraries.
