1 Overview of USB
Universal Serial Bus (USB) is not a true bus, it is a
point-to-point star topology. There is a single host that
initiates all data transfers (USB is a polled
communication system). Up to 127 devices can be
managed by a single host, with hubs providing the
connections from the host to the devices. Electrically,
USB supports point to point connections with a max
length of 5 meters, and a maximum of 5 hubs between
the host and end device.
Low-level USB communications are implemented using
a protocol. The protocol is slightly different depending
on the type of transfer. The USB specification describes
this protocol using the terms host and function. The host
is the master of the bus and starts all data transfers. The
function (also called the device) is used to execute the
requests of the host.
The upper levels of USB communications are referred to
as classes. A class is a group of variables and methods. A
method can also be called a function because it performs
