USB CONTROL TRANSFERS

Control transfers are used to exchange device setup and configuration


information between a function and the host.
These transfers consist of a sequence of transactions with the device in order
to carry out operations such as device enumeration.
There are two general types of control transfers:
Control Write transfers;
Control Read transfers.
USB CONTROL TRANSFERS

Each transfer begins with a Setup transaction and ends with a Status
transaction.
Between the setup and status transactions, the control transfer may include
one or more Data transactions.
Setup Stage Data Stage Status Stage

SETUP IN/OUT IN/OUT IN/OUT OUT/IN

Recall that all of these transactions are composed of three packets:


Token, Data, and Handshake.
MODULAR USB INTERFACES

When designing a device, there are three approaches that can be used to
provide USB connectivity.
The first is to provide full USB support directly with the embedded system, by
using a microcontroller with direct USB interfaces.
Alternatively, a modular interface can be used that converts USB to a serial
(UART) connection to the microcontroller. This can be accomplished using an
USB to serial cable.
The third option is the include a USB interface component in the embedded
device that connects to the microcontroller through a GPIO port or serial
2
protocol (i.e. UART, SSI, or I C).

MODULAR USB INTERFACES

For example, the FT232 USB-to-multipurpose-UART/FIFO device implements


USB and can be interfaced to a processor using a range of protocols.
