Device usage[edit | edit source]

The USB Host port can be used under Linux for connecting USB peripheral devices: the related peripheral driver has to be integrated into the Linux kernel.

The USB Device feature can be easily tested using the Mass Storage Gadget driver. (*) This port can operate in Host mode using a proper BOM mount option. See the EVK schematics for more info
