USB Host
The VM2 can become a USB host by
attaching a MAX3421E to the SPI bus.
This allows the VM2 to use external USB drives for virtually unlimited fixed or removable storage.
A USB host connector is provided on the Application Board 3,
and the schematic for the surrounding circuitry (which uses SPI to connect to the VM2) is available for
customers making their own application boards.
