Chapter 15: USB Host, Device, and OTG Controller
15.10 Host Mode Data Structures
The programming model follows the EHCI specification model and includes additional registers and
bits to support a virtual transaction translator that is embedded into the DMA and protocol engines
of the high speed host controller.
The Rx and Tx data FIFOs must respond to the USB in real-time. Packet sizes can be up to 1024 bytes.
The transfer descriptors must have memory bandwidth for accessing descriptors and DMA to/from
the FIFOs.
The embedded transaction translator uses QH and qTD descriptors for interrupt endpoints and siTD’s
for isochronous endpoints.
The host controller is a schedule driven environment of periodic (interrupt / isochronous) and
asynchronous (control / bulk) data transfers.
EHCI Enhancements and Deviations
These are listed in section 15.11 EHCI Implementation.
Transfer Schedules
The structures of the Transfer Schedules are defined in the EHCI specification.
Suspend and Resume
The programming model for suspend and resume is defined in the EHCI specification.
15.10.1 Host Controller Transfer Schedule Structures
The host controller uses two types of schedules to communicate control, status, and data between
the HCD and the EHCI-compatible host controller in support of USB functions: periodic and
asynchronous. The HCD writes the data structures for these schedules in to system memory (32-bit
address space) and the controller hardware reads and modifies these structures as it executes the
transaction schedules.
The periodic schedule includes the periodic frame list which is the root of all periodic (isochronous
and interrupt transfer type) transfers, refer to section 15.10.2 Periodic Schedule.
The asynchronous schedule includes the bulk and control queue heads list which is a circular set of
pointers which are at the root of all the bulk and control transfer types, refer to section
15.10.3 Asynchronous Schedule.
The host controller uses different types of descriptors for the periodic and asynchronous schedules
in support of the Isochronous, Interrupt, Control and Bulk transfers as described in section
15.12.1 Descriptor Usage.
Isochronous data streams are managed using isochronous transaction descriptors (iTD).
