34.5 Functional Description
34.5.1 USB V2.0 Full-speed Introduction
The USB V2.0 full-speed provides communication services between host and attached USB devices. Each device is
offered with a collection of communication flows (pipes) associated with each endpoint. Software on the host
communicates with a USB device through a set of communication flows.
Figure 34-3. Example of USB V2.0 Full-speed Communication Control
The Control Transfer endpoint EP0 is always used when a USB device is first configured (USB v. 2.0 specifications).
34.5.1.1 USB V2.0 Full-speed Transfer Types
A communication flow is carried over one of four transfer types defined by the USB device.
