How do i make PC graphical interface that controls a hardware using USB.The hardware is a PIC MicroControler?

Kimo asked:


If you could refer me to a software package that does the communication between a hardware board ("in my case a pic microcontroller") and PC via a USB cable. Thank you

    There are some “USB” PICs, but they are not common. A normal PIC probably can’t run a USB stack very readily (I do know of a USB stack for the Atmel, but not the PIC). However, you can use chips from FTDI to convert USB to serial and then easily handle that through the PIC. Parallax sells the chips as do many others. You might also scan for ideas.
