 I'm using a Microchip microcontroller with low speed USB support, the
 microcontroller with a minimum set of peripherals will conform a board for
a
 robotics application so basically the board will read information from
 encoders and analog inputs and will send that over the USB to a computer
 running linux, thats where the position controller is, so the controller
 will send data back to the board to move the motors and stuff.

 The firmware in the microcontroller is written to be used with a HID
driver,
 so that is the driver I'm using now, however since timing is very important
 in my application, I think is better to go with a device-specific driver.

 Thanks again.

 Daniel
