20.2 Overview
The USB module is a USB 2.0 full speed (12Mbps) and low speed (1.5Mbps) device compliant
interface.
The USB supports 16 endpoint addresses. All endpoint addresses have one input and one out-
put endpoint, for a total of 31 configurable endpoints and one control endpoint. Each endpoint
address is fully configurable and can be configured for any of the four transfer types; control,
interrupt, bulk, or isochronous. The data payload size is also selectable, and it supports data
payloads up to 1023 bytes.
No dedicated memory is allocated for or included in the USB module. Internal SRAM is used to
keep the configuration for each endpoint address and the data buffer for each endpoint. The
memory locations used for endpoint configurations and data buffers are fully configurable. The
amount of memory allocated is fully dynamic, according to the number of endpoints in use and
