Hello,

I am using i.MX 8MP Plus humming board. In that USB 1 is used as Host. However, I would like to use the USB as a device /slave. Could you please let me know what is needed to be done to configure it as slave. Please find the attachment.

Looking forward for your quick response.

You just need to change the device-tree dr\_mode for that USB device. Only USB1 can be used in this mode on our HummingBoard carriers as USB2 is connected to a HUB on the carrier.
