Human Interface Device Tutorial

The Human Interface Device (HID) class specification allows designers to create Universal Serial Bus (USB)-based devices and applications without the need for custom driver development. Silicon Laboratories microcontrollers, with their high levels of on-chip integration and robust USB interface, make ideal devices for HID designs. This application note highlights the benefits of designing with HID and discusses techniques for creating and optimizing HID-based systems that use Silicon Laboratories microcontrollers.
