Re: Problem with VCOM PC PLPU-S2K driver

2006-03-13 by Dezheng Tang

The Keil's board doesn't support soft connect,
you need to add extra H/W logic to make it work.
Go to Keil's website, these is an app-note about that.

I also suggest that you fix the VBUS issue mentioned
on Keil's website.

After adding soft connect logic, to test unplug and 
unplug, I also suggest that you use external power 
on the board.

regards,
Philips app.
