 Is it possible for the NRF52840 to act as a USB host? or is it &amp;quot;only&amp;quot; a USB slave? 
 It would be awesome if we could connect a usb peripheral directly to the NRF52840 :) 
 Thanks

&lt;p&gt;Thanks alot for quick respond. not the answer I was hoping for, but guess I just have to use a separate USB host chip. The NRF52840 still looks awesome even without usb host controller :D&lt;/p&gt;
