What is USB-NeoHub
USB-NeoHub is USB hub which is both USB 1.1 and USB 2.0 compatible. This
is important as Neo6502 modern retro computer uses RP2040 to interface USB
keyboards and USB Flash drives.
RP2040 USB interface is USB 1.1
For some weird reason not all USB hubs on the market support this standard
which leads to incompatibilities. If you attach USB keyboard to Neo6502 it
works, same is if you attach directly USB Flash. But if you attach USB
keyboard through USB hub there is 50:50 chance that it may or may not work.
To save the customer frustration we decided to find USB hub chip set which
guaranteed works with Neo6502.
This is how USB-NeoHub was made.
