Chapter 6 ULPI Operation
6.1 Overview
The USB3320 uses the industry standard ULPI digital interface to facilitate communication between
the USB Transceiver (PHY) and Link (device controller). The ULPI interface is designed to reduce the
number of pins required to connect a discrete USB Transceiver to an ASIC or digital controller. For
example, a full UTMI+ Level 3 OTG interface requires 54 signals while a ULPI interface requires only
12 signals.
The ULPI interface is documented completely in the “UTMI+ Low Pin Interface (ULPI) Specification
Revision 1.1”. The following sections describe the operating modes of the USB3320 digital interface.
Figure 6.1 illustrates the block diagram of the ULPI digital functions. It should be noted that this
USB3320 does not use a “ULPI wrapper” around a UTMI+ PHY core as the ULPI specification implies.
The advantage of a “wrapper less” architecture is that the USB3320 has a lower USB latency than a
design which must first register signals into the PHY’s wrapper before the transfer to the PHY core. A
