Introduction

This chapter provides an introduction to using emUSB-Host. It explains the basic concepts behind emUSB-Host.

What is emUSB-Host

emUSB-Host is a CPU-independent USB Host stack. emUSB-Host is a high-performance library that has been optimized for speed, versatility and small memory footprint.

emUSB-Host features

emUSB-Host is written in ANSI C and can be used on virtually any CPU. Here is a list of emUSB-Host features:

Basic concepts

emUSB-Host consists of three layers: a driver for hardware access, the emUSB-Host core and a USB class driver. For a functional emUSB-Host, the core component and at least one of the hardware drivers is necessary. emUSB-Host handles all USB operations independently in a separate task(s) beside the target application task. This implicitly means that an RTOS is required. A recommendation is using embOS since it perfectly fits the requirements of emUSB Host and works seamlessly with emUSB-Host, not requiring any integration work.

Tasks and interrupt usage

emUSB-Host uses two dedicated tasks. One of the tasks processes the interrupts generated by the USB host controller. The function USBH_ISRTask() must run as this task with the highest priority. The other task manages the internal software timers. Its routine must be the USBH_Task() function. The priorities of both tasks have to be higher than the priority of any other application task which uses emUSB-Host. To recap:

emUSBH API functions must not be called from interrupt functions, only from any task context.

Especially when using MSD it is easy to forget that the file system functions actually call emUSB-Host functions underneath. Therefore a task operating on the file system of a connected USB medium is considered an application task and must have a lower priority than USBH_Task.

Tasks which do not use emUSB-Host in any way can run at a higher priority than USBH_ISRTask. Even if a different high-priority task blocks the CPU for extended periods of time, USB communication should not be affected. USB communication is host-controlled, there are no timeouts on the device side and the host is free to delay the communication depending on how busy it is.

Your application must properly configure these two tasks at startup. The examples in the Application folder show how to do this.

Task and interrupt usage

Development environment (compiler)

The CPU used is of no importance; only an ANSI-compliant C compiler complying with at least one of the following international standard is required:

If your compiler has some limitations, let us know and we will inform you if these will be a problem when compiling the software. Any compiler for 16/32/64-bit CPUs or DSPs that we know of can be used. A C++ compiler is not required, but can be used. The application program can therefore also be programmed in C++ if desired.

Use of undocumented functions

Functions, variables and data-types which are not explained in this manual are considered internal. They are in no way required to use the software. Your application should not use and rely on any of the internal elements, as only the documented API functions are guaranteed to remain unchanged in future versions of the software. If you feel that it is necessary to use undocumented (internal) functions, please get in touch with SEGGER support in order to find a solution.

USB Background information

This is a short introduction to USB. The fundamentals of USB are explained and links to additional resources are given.

Short Overview

The Universal Serial Bus (USB) is an external bus architecture for connecting peripherals to a host computer. It is an industry standard - maintained by the USB Implementers Forum - and because of its many advantages it enjoys a huge industry-wide acceptance. Over the years, a number of USB-capable peripherals appeared on the market, for example printers, keyboards, mice, digital cameras etc. Among the top benefits of USB are:

These benefits have not only led to broad market acceptance, but have also produced several other advantages, such as low costs of USB cables and connectors or a wide range of USB stack implementations. Last but not least, the major operating systems such as Microsoft Windows XP, Mac OS X, or Linux provide excellent USB support.

Important USB Standard Versions

USB 1.1 (September 1998)

This standard version supports isochronous and asynchronous data transfers. It has dual speed data transfer of 1.5 Mbit/s for low speed and 12 Mbit/s for full-speed devices. The maximum cable length between host and device is five meters. Up to 500 mA of electric current may be distributed to low power devices.

USB 2.0 (April 2000)

As all previous USB standards, USB 2.0 is fully forward and backward compatible. Existing cables and connectors may be reused. A new high-speed transfer speed of 480 Mbit/s (40 times faster than USB 1.1 at full-speed) was added.

USB 3.0 (November 2008)

As all previous USB standards, USB 3.0 is fully forward and backward compatible. Existing cables and connectors may be reused but the new speed can only be used with new USB 3.0 cables and devices. The new speed class is named USB Super-Speed, which offers a maximum rate of 5 Gbit/s.

USB 3.1 (July 2013)

As all previous USB standards, USB 3.1 is fully forward and backward compatible. The new specification replaces the 3.0 standard and introduces new transfer speeds of up to 10 Gbit/s.

USB System Architecture

A USB system is composed of three parts - a host side, a device side and a physical bus. The physical bus is represented by the USB cable and connects the host and the device. The USB system architecture is asymmetric. Every single host can be connected to multiple devices in a tree-like fashion using special hub devices. You can connect up to 127 devices to a single host, but the count must include the hub devices as well.

USB Host

A USB host consists of a USB host controller hardware and a layered software stack. This host stack contains:

USB Device

Two types of devices exist: Hubs and functions. Hubs usually provide four ore more additional USB attachment points. Functions provide capabilities to the host and are able to transmit or receive data or control information over the USB bus. Every peripheral USB device represents at least one function but may implement more than one function. A USB printer for instance may provide file system like access in addition to printing. In this guide we treat the term USB device as synonymous with functions and will not consider hubs. Each USB device contains configuration information which describes its capabilities and resource requirements. Before it can be used a USB device must be configured by the host. When a new device is connected for the first time, the host enumerates it, requests the configuration from the device, and performs the actual configuration. For example, if a memory stick is connected to a USB host, it will appear as a USB mass storage device, and the host will use a standard MSD class implementation to access the device.

Descriptors

A device reports its attributes via descriptors. Descriptors are data structures with a standard defined format. A USB device has one device descriptor which contains information applicable to the device and all of its configurations. It also contains the number of configurations supported by the device. For each configuration, a configuration descriptor contains configuration-specific information. The configuration descriptor also contains the number of interfaces provided by the configuration. An interface groups the endpoints into logical units. Each interface descriptor contains information about the number of endpoints. Each endpoint has its own endpoint descriptor which states the endpoint’s address, transfer types etc.

USB descriptor order

Transfer Types

The USB standard defines four transfer types: control, isochronous, interrupt, and bulk. Control transfers are used in the setup phase. The application can basically select one of the other three transfer types. For most embedded applications, bulk is the best choice because it allows the highest possible data rates.

Control transfers

Typically used for configuring a device when attached to the host. It may also be used for other device-specific purposes, including control of other pipes on the device.

Isochronous transfers

Typically used for applications which need guaranteed speed. Isochronous transfer is fast but with possible data loss. A typical use is for audio data which requires a constant data rate.

Interrupt transfers

Typically used by devices that need guaranteed quick responses (bounded latency).

Bulk transfers

Typically used by devices that generate or consume data in relatively large and burstly quantities. Bulk transfer has wide dynamic latitude in transmission constraints. It can use all remaining available bandwidth, but with no guarantees on bandwidth or latency. Because the USB bus is normally not very busy, there is typically 90% or more of the bandwidth available for USB transfers.

Setup phase / Enumeration

The host first needs to get information from the target before the target can start communicating with the host. This information is gathered in the initial setup phase. The information is contained in the descriptors. The most important part of target device identification are the Product and Vendor IDs. During the setup phase, the host also assigns an address to the device. This part of the setup is called enumeration.

Product / Vendor IDs

Each USB device can be identified by its a Vendor and Product ID. A USB host does not have a Vendor and Product ID.

Predefined device classes

The USB Implementers Forum has defined device classes for different purposes. In general, every device class defines a protocol for a particular type of application such as a mass storage device (MSD), human interface device (HID), etc.

Running emUSB-Host on target hardware

This chapter explains how to integrate and run emUSB-Host on your target hardware.

Integrating emUSB-Host

We assume that you are familiar with the tools you have selected for your project (compiler, project manager, linker, etc.). You should therefore be able to add files, add directories to the include search path, and so on. In this document the Embedded Studio IDE is used for all examples and screenshots, but every other ANSI C toolchain can also be used. It is also possible to use makefiles; in this case, when we say “add to the project”, this translates into “add to the makefile”.

Procedure to follow

Integration of emUSB-Host is a relatively simple process, which consists of the following steps:

Take a running project

The project to start with should include the setup for basic hardware (e.g. CPU, PLL, DDR SDRAM) and initialization of the RTOS. emUSB-Host is designed to be used with embOS, SEGGER’s real-time operating system. We recommend to start with an embOS sample project and include emUSB-Host into this project.

Add emUSB-Host files

Add all necessary source files from the USBH folder to your project. You may simply add all files and let the linker drop everything not needed for your configuration. But there are some source files containing dependencies to emFile or embOS/IP. If you don’t have these middleware components, remove the respective files from your project.

Add RTOS layer

Additionally add the RTOS interface layer to your project. Choose a file from the folder Sample/USBH/OS that matches your RTOS. For embOS use USBH_OS_embOS.c.

Configuring the include path

The include path is the path in which the compiler looks for include files. In cases where the included files (typically header files, .h) do not reside in the same folder as the C file to compile, an include path needs to be set. In order to build the project with all added files, you will need to add the following directories to your include path:

Configuring debugging output

While developing and testing emUSB-Host, we recommend to use the DEBUG configuration of emUSB-Host. This is enabled by setting the preprocessor symbol DEBUG to 1 (or USBH_DEBUG to 2). The DEBUG configuration contains many additional run-time checks and generate debug output messages which are very useful to identify problems that may occur during development. In case of a fatal problem (e.g. an invalid configuration) the program will end up in the function USBH_Panic() with a appropriate error message that describes the cause of the problem.

Add the file USBH_ConfigIO.c found in the folder Config to your project and configure it to match the message output method used by your debugging tools. If possible use RTT.

To later compile a release configuration, which has a significant smaller code footprint, simply set the preprocessor symbol DEBUG (or USBH_DEBUG) to 0.

Add hardware dependent configuration

To perform target hardware dependent runtime configuration, the emUSB-Host stack calls a function named USBH_X_Config. Typical tasks that may be done inside this function are:

Details can be found in Runtime configuration.

Sample configurations for popular evaluation boards are supplied with the driver shipment. They can be found in files called USBH_Config_<TargetName>.c in the folders BSP/<BoardName>/Setup.

Add the appropriate configuration file to your project. If there is no configuration file for your target hardware, take a file for a similar hardware and modify it if necessary.

If the file needs modifications, we recommend to copy it into the directory Config for easy updates to later versions of emUSB-Host.

Add BSP file

Some targets require CPU specific functions for initialization, mainly for installing an interrupt service routine. They are contained in the file BSP_USB.c. USB interrupt priority can also be configured in BSP_USB.c.

Sample BSP_USB.c files for popular evaluation boards are supplied with the driver shipment. They can be found in the folders BSP/<BoardName>/Setup.

Add the appropriate BSP_USB.c file to your project. If there is no BSP file for your target hardware, take a file for a similar hardware and modify it if necessary.

If the file needs modifications, we recommend to copy it into the directory Config for easy updates to later versions of emUSB-Host.

Note that a BSP_USB.c file is not always required, because for some target hardware all runtime configuration is done in USBH_X_Config.

Prepare and run the application

Choose a sample application from the folder Application and add it to your project. Sample applications are described in Example applications. Compile and run the application on the target hardware.

USB host HID start sample

Write your own application

Take one of the sample applications as a starting point to write your own application. In order to use emUSB-Host, the application has to:

Updating emUSB-Host

If an existing project should be updated to a later emUSB-Host version, only files have to be replaced. You should have received the emUSB-Host update as a zip file. Unzip this file to the location of your choice and replace all emUSB-Host files in your project with the newer files from the emUSB-Host update shipment.

In general, all files from the following directories have to be updated:

Some files may contain modification required for project specific customization. These files should reside in the folder Config and must not be overwritten. This includes:

Example applications

In this chapter, you will find a description of each emUSB-Host example application.

Overview

File Description
USBH_HID_Start.c Demonstrates the handling of mouse and keyboard events.
USBH_MSD_Start.c Demonstrates how to handle mass storage devices.
USBH_Printer_Start.c Shows how to interact with a printer.
USBH_CDC_Start.c Demonstrates communication with CDC devices.
USBH_MTP_Start.c Shows how to interact with smart phones and other MTP-enabled devices.
USBH_FT232_Start.c Demonstrates communication with FTDI serial adapters.

The example applications for the target-side are supplied in source code in the Application folder of your shipment.

Mouse and keyboard events (USBH_HID_Start.c)

This example application displays in the terminal I/O of the debugger the events generated by a mouse and a keyboard connected over USB. A message in the form:

6:972 MainTask - Mouse: xRel: 0, yRel: 0, WheelRel: 0, ButtonState: 1

is generated each time the mouse generates an event. An event is generated when the mouse is moved, a button is pressed or the scroll-wheel is rolled. The message indicates the change in position over the vertical and horizontal axis, the scroll-wheel displacement and the status of all buttons. In case of a keyboard these two messages are generated when a key is pressed and then released:

386:203 MainTask - Keyboard: Key e/E - pressed
386:287 MainTask - Keyboard: Key e/E - released

The keycode is displayed followed by its status.

Mass storage handling (USBH_MSD_Start.c)

This demonstrates the handling of mass storage devices. A small test is run as soon as a mass storage device is connected to host. The results of the test are displayed in the terminal I/O window of the debugger. If the medium is not formatted only the message “Medium is not formatted.” is shown and the application waits for a new device to be connected. In case the medium is formatted the file system is mounted and the total disk space is displayed. The test goes on and creates a file named TestFile.txt in the root directory of the disk followed by a listing of the files in the root directory. The value returned by OS_GetTime() is stored in the created file. At the end of test the file system is unmounted and information about the mass storage device is displayed like Vendor ID and name. Information similar to the following is shown when a memory stick is connected:

 <...>

Printer interaction (USBH_Printer_Start.c)

This example shows how to communicate with a printer connected over USB. As soon as a printer connects over USB the message “**** Device added” is displayed on the terminal I/O window of the debugger followed by the device ID of the printer and the port status. After that the ASCII text “Hello World” and a form feed is sent to the printer.

Terminal output:

 **** Device added
  Device Id = MFG:Hewlett-Packard;CMD:PJL,PML,POSTSCRIPT,PCLXL,PCL;MDL:HP
  LaserJet P2015 Series;CLS:PRINTER;DES:Hewlett-Packard LaserJet P2015

  PortStatus = 0x18 ->NoError=1, Select/OnLine=1, PaperEmpty=0
  Printing Hello World to printer
  Printing completed

  **** Device removed

Serial communication (USBH_CDC_Start.c)

This example shows how to communicate with a CDC-enabled device. Since CDC is just a transport protocol it is not possible to write a generic sample which will work with all devices. This sample is designed to be used with a emUSB-Device CDC counterpart, the “USB_CDC_Echo.c” sample. It can also be used with any other device, but it may not be able to demonstrate continuous communication. The sample works as follows:

With the emUSB-Device “USB_CDC_Echo.c” sample this causes a simple, continuous ping-pong of messages.

Terminal output:

 **** Device added
  <...>
  0:663 USBH_isr - INIT: USBH_ISRTask started

  **** Device added
  Vendor  Id = 0x1234
  Product Id = 0x5678
  Serial no. = 123456789
  Speed      = HighSpeed
  Started communication...
  <...>
  **** Device removed

Media Transfer Protocol (USBH_MTP_Start.c)

This example shows how to communicate with a MTP-enabled device. The sample demonstrates most of the emUSB-Host MTP API. When a MTP device is connected the sample prints generic information about the device. If the device is locked (e.g. pin code on a smart phone) the sample will wait for the user to unlock it. The sample will then iterate over the storages made available by the device, print information about it, print the file and folder list in the root directory and create a new file under it called “SEGGER_Test.txt”.

Terminal output:

  <...>
  **** Device added
  Vendor  Id           = 0x1234
  Product Id           = 0x1234
  Serial no.           = 1

FTDI devices (USBH_FT232_Start.c)

This example shows how to communicate with a FTDI FT232 adapters. When a FT232 is connected the sample prints generic information about the device. After that it receives data from the connected FT232 adapter and sends it back. The sample is easily tested by using two identical FT232 adapters connected to each other via a null modem cable. One of the devices should be connected to emUSB-Host. The other to a PC. You can use any PC terminal emulator to send data from one adapter to the other, which will be then received by emUSB-Host and sent back. Baudrate and other serial setting should match between the sample and the PC for this to work.

Terminal output:

 **** Device added

USBH_AssignMemory()

Description

Assigns a memory area that will be used by the memory management functions for allocating memory. This function must be called in the initialization phase.

Prototype

void USBH_AssignMemory(void * pMem,
                       U32    NumBytes);

Parameters

Parameter Description
pMem Pointer to the memory area.
NumBytes Size of the memory area in bytes.

Additional information

emUSB-Host comes with its own dynamic memory allocator optimized for its needs. This function is used to set up up a memory area for the heap. The best place to call it is in the USBH_X_Config() function.

For some USB host controllers additionally a separate memory heap for DMA memory must be provided by calling USBH_AssignTransferMemory().

USBH_AssignTransferMemory()

Description

Assigns a memory area for a heap that will be used for allocating DMA memory. This function must be called in the initialization phase.

The memory area provided to this function must fulfill the following requirements:

If the physical address is not equal to the virtual address of the memory area (address translation by an MMU), additionally a mapping function must be installed using USBH_Config_SetV2PHandler().

Prototype

void USBH_AssignTransferMemory(void * pMem,
                               U32    NumBytes);

Parameters

Parameter Description
pMem Pointer to the memory area (virtual address).
NumBytes Size of the memory area in bytes.

Additional information

Use of this function is required only in systems in which “normal” default memory does not fulfill all of these criteria. In simple microcontroller systems without cache, MMU and external RAM, use of this function is not required. If no transfer memory is assigned, memory assigned with USBH_AssignMemory() is used instead.

                                     (const USBH_INTERFACE_MASK * pInterfaceMask,
                                            unsigned int        * pInterfaceCount);

Parameters

Parameter Description
pInterfaceMask Pointer to a caller provided structure, that allows to select interfaces to be included in the list. If this pointer is NULL all available interfaces are returned.
pInterfaceCount Pointer to a variable that receives the number of interfaces in the list created.

Return value

On success it returns a handle to the interface list. In case of an error it returns NULL.

Additional information

The generated interface list is stored in the emUSB-Host and must be deleted by a call to USBH_DestroyInterfaceList(). The list contains a snapshot of interfaces available at the point of time where the function is called. This enables the application to have a fixed relation between the index and a USB interface in a list. The list is not updated if a device is removed or connected. A new list must be created to capture the current available interfaces. Hub devices are not added to the list!

USBH_HUB_SuspendResume()

Description

Prepares hubs for suspend (stops the interrupt endpoint) or re-starts the interrupt endpoint functionality after a resume.

This function may be used, if a port of a host controller is set to suspend mode via the function USBH_SetRootPortPower(). The application must make sure that no transactions are running on that port while it is suspended. If there may be any external hubs connected to that port, then polling of the interrupt endpoints of these hubs must be stopped while suspending. To achieve this, USBH_HUB_SuspendResume() should be called with State = 0 before USBH_SetRootPortPower(x, y, USBH_SUSPEND) and with State = 1 after resume with USBH_SetRootPortPower(x, y, USBH_NORMAL_POWER).

All hubs connected to the given port of a host controller (directly or indirectly) are handled by the function.

Prototype

void USBH_HUB_SuspendResume(U32 HCIndex,
                            U8  Port,
                            U8  State);

Parameters

Parameter Description
HCIndex Index of the host controller.
Port Port number of the roothub. Ports are counted starting with 1. if set to 0, the function applies to all ports of the root hub.
State 0 - Prepare for suspend. 1 - Return from resume.

USBH_GetNumRootPortConnections()

Description

Determine how many devices are directly connected to the host controllers root hub ports. All physically connected devices are counted, irrespective of the identification or enumeration of these devices. Devices connected via a hub are not counted.

Prototype

unsigned USBH_GetNumRootPortConnections(U32 HCIndex);

Parameters

Parameter Description
HCIndex Index of the host controller.

Return value

Number of devices physically connected to the host controllers root hub ports.

USBH_OpenInterface()

Description

Prototype

USBH_STATUS USBH_OpenInterface(USBH_INTERFACE_ID       InterfaceID,
                               U8                      Exclusive,
                               USBH_INTERFACE_HANDLE * pInterfaceHandle);

Parameters

Parameter Description
InterfaceID Specifies the interface to open by its interface Id. The interface ID can be obtained by a call to USBH_GetInterfaceId().
Exclusive Specifies if the interface should be opened exclusive or not. If the value is nonzero the function succeeds only if no other application has an open handle to this interface.
pInterfaceHandle Pointer where the handle to the opened interface is stored.

Return value

USBH_STATUS_SUCCESS on success. Any other value means error.

Additional information

The handle returned by this function via the pInterfaceHandle parameter is used by the functions that perform data transfers. The returned handle must be closed with USBH_CloseInterface() when it is no longer required.

If the interface is allocated exclusive no other application can open it.

USBH_RegisterEnumErrorNotification()

Description

Registers a notification for a port enumeration error.

Prototype

USBH_ENUM_ERROR_HANDLE USBH_RegisterEnumErrorNotification
                                   (void                    * pContext,
                                    USBH_ON_ENUM_ERROR_FUNC * pfEnumErrorCallback);

Parameters

Parameter Description
pContext A user defined pointer that is passed unchanged to the notification callback function.
pfEnumErrorCallback A pointer to a notification function of type USBH_ON_ENUM_ERROR_FUNC that is called if a port enumeration error occurs.

Return value

On success a valid handle to the added notification is returned. A NULL is returned in case of an error.

Additional information

To remove the notification USBH_UnregisterEnumErrorNotification() must be called. The pfOnEnumError callback routine is called in the context of the process where the interrupt status of a host controller is processed. The callback routine must not block.

USBH_RegisterPnPNotification()

Description

Registers a notification function for PnP events.

Prototype

USBH_NOTIFICATION_HANDLE USBH_RegisterPnPNotification

Parameters

Parameter Description
pPnPNotification Pointer to a caller provided structure.

Return value

On success a valid handle to the added notification is returned. A NULL is returned in case of an error.

Additional information

An application can register any number of notifications. The user notification routine is called in the context of a notify timer that is global for all USB bus PnP notifications. If this function is called while the bus driver has already enumerated devices that match the USBH_INTERFACE_MASK the callback function passed in the USBH_PNP_NOTIFICATION structure is called for each matching interface.

USBH_RestartEnumError()

Description

Restarts the enumeration process for all devices that have failed to enumerate.

Prototype

void USBH_RestartEnumError(void);

Additional information

If any problem occur during enumeration of a device, the device is reset and enumeration is retried. To avoid an endless enumeration loop on broken devices there is a maximum retry count of 5 (USBH_RESET_RETRY_COUNTER). After the retry count is expired, the port where the device is connected to is finally disabled. Calling USBH_RestartEnumError() resets the retry counts and restarts enumeration on disabled ports.

USBH_SetCacheConfig()

Description

Configures cache related functionality that might be required by the stack for several purposes such as cache handling in drivers.

Prototype

void USBH_SetCacheConfig(const SEGGER_CACHE_CONFIG * pConfig,
                               unsigned              ConfSize);

Parameters

Parameter Description
pConfig Pointer to an element of SEGGER_CACHE_CONFIG .
ConfSize Size of the passed structure in case library and header size of the structure differs.

Additional information

This function has to called in USBH_X_Config().

USBH_SetOnSetPortPower()

Description

Sets a callback for the set-port-power driver function. The user callback is called when the ports are added to the host driver instance, this occurs during initialization, or when the ports are removed (during de-initialization). Using this function is necessary if the port power is not controlled directly through the USB controller but is provided from an external source.

Prototype

void USBH_SetOnSetPortPower(USBH_ON_SETPORTPOWER_FUNC * pfOnSetPortPower);

Parameters

Parameter Description
pfOnSetPortPower Pointer to a user-provided callback function of type USBH_ON_SETPORTPOWER_FUNC.

Additional information

USBH_ConfigPortPowerPinEx()

Description

Setups how the port-power pin should be set in order to enable port for this port. In normal case low means power enable. This feature must be supported by the USBH driver.

Prototype

USBH_STATUS USBH_ConfigPortPowerPinEx(U32 HCIndex,
                                      U8  SetHighIsPowerOn);

Parameters

Parameter Description

                           USBH_URB              * pUrb);

Parameters

Parameter Description
hInterface Handle to a interface.
pUrb Pointer to a caller allocated structure.  in  The URB which should be submitted.  out  Submitted URB with the appropriate status and the received data if any. The storage for the URB must be permanent as long as the request is pending. The host controller can define special alignment requirements for the URB or the data transfer buffer.

Return value

The request can fail for different reasons. In that case the return value is different from USBH_STATUS_PENDING or USBH_STATUS_SUCCESS. If the function returns USBH_STATUS_PENDING the completion function is called later. In all other cases the completion routine is not called. If the function returns USBH_STATUS_SUCCESS, the request was processed immediately. On error the request cannot be processed.

Additional information

If the status USBH_STATUS_PENDING is returned the ownership of the URB is passed to the driver. The storage of the URB must not be freed nor modified as long as the ownership is assigned to the driver. The driver passes the URB back to the application by calling the completion routine. An URB that transfers data can be pending for a long time. Please make sure that the URB is not located in the stack. Otherwise the structure may be corrupted in memory. Either use USBH_Malloc() or use global/static memory.

Notes

A pending URB transactions may be aborted with an abort request by using USBH_SubmitUrb with a new URB where Urb->Header.Function = USBH_FUNCTION_ABORT_ENDPOINT and Urb->Request.EndpointRequest.Endpoint = EndpointAddressToAbort. Otherwise this operation will last until the device has responded to the request or the device has been disconnected.

Example (asynchronous operation)

static U8       _Buffer[512];
static USBH_URB _Urb;


static void _OnUrbCompletion(USBH_URB * pUrb) {
  if (pUrb->Header.Status == USBH_SUCCESS) {
    ProcessData(pUrb->BulkIntRequest.pBuffer, pUrb->BulkIntRequest.Length);
  } else {
    // error handling ...
  }
}


//
// Start IN transfer on interface 'hInterface' for endpoint 'Ep'
//
_Urb.Header.Function         = USBH_FUNCTION_BULK_REQUEST;
_Urb.Header.pfOnCompletion   = _OnUrbCompletion;
_Urb.Header.pContext         = NULL;
_Urb.BulkIntRequest.pBuffer  = &_Buffer[0];
_Urb.BulkIntRequest.Length   = sizeof(_Buffer);
_Urb.BulkIntRequest.Endpoint = Ep;
Status = USBH_SubmitUrb(hInterface, pUrb);
if (Status != USBH_STATUS_PENDING) {
  // error handling ...
}

Example (synchronous operation)

static USBH_URB           _Urb;

static void _OnUrbCompletion(USBH_URB * pUrb) {
  USBH_OS_EVENT_OBJ *pEvent;

  pEvent = (USBH_OS_EVENT_OBJ *)pUrb->Header.pContext;
  USBH_OS_SetEvent(pEvent);
}


USBH_OS_EVENT_OBJ *pEvent;
//
// Start IN transfer on interface 'hInterface' for endpoint 'Ep'
//
pEvent = USBH_OS_AllocEvent();
_Urb.Header.Function         = USBH_FUNCTION_BULK_REQUEST;
_Urb.Header.pfOnCompletion   = _OnUrbCompletion;
_Urb.Header.pContext         = pEvent;
_Urb.BulkIntRequest.pBuffer  = &_Buffer[0];
_Urb.BulkIntRequest.Length   = sizeof(_Buffer);
_Urb.BulkIntRequest.Endpoint = Ep;
Status = USBH_SubmitUrb(hInterface, pUrb);
if (Status != USBH_STATUS_PENDING) {
  // error handling ...
} else {
  USBH_OS_WaitEvent(pEvent);
  if (_Urb.Header.Status == USBH_SUCCESS) {
    ProcessData(_Urb.BulkIntRequest.pBuffer, _Urb.BulkIntRequest.Length);
  } else {
    // error handling ...
  }
}
USBH_OS_FreeEvent(pEvent);

USBH_IsoDataCtrl()

Description

Acknowledge ISO data received from an IN EP or provide data for OUT EPs.

On order to start ISO OUT transfers after calling USBH_SubmitUrb(), initially the output packet queue must be filled. For that purpose this function must be called repeatedly until is does not return USBH_STATUS_NEED_MORE_DATA any more.

Prototype

USBH_STATUS USBH_IsoDataCtrl(const USBH_URB           * pUrb,
                                   USBH_ISO_DATA_CTRL * pIsoData);

Prototype

void USBH_Task(void);

Additional information

The function iterates over the list of active timers and invokes the registered callback functions in case the timer expired.

When USBH_Exit() is used in the application this function should not be directly started as a task, as it returns when USBH_Exit() is called. A wrapper function can be used in this case, see USBH_IsRunning() for a sample.

Note

Task priority requirements described in Tasks and interrupt usage must be considered.

} USBH_CONTROL_REQUEST;

Structure members

Member Description
Setup The setup packet, direction of data phase, the length field must be valid!
pBuffer Pointer to the caller provided storage, can be NULL. This buffer is used in the data phase to transfer the data. The direction of the data transfer depends from the Type field in the Setup. See the USB specification for details.
Length Returns the number of bytes transferred in the data phase. Output value only: Set by the driver.

Additional information

A control request consists of a setup phase, an optional data phase, and a handshake phase. The data phase is limited to a length of 4096 bytes. The Setup data structure must be filled in properly. The length field in the Setup must contain the size of the Buffer. The caller must provide the storage for the Buffer.

With this request any setup packet can be submitted. Some standard requests, like SetAddress can be sent but would lead to a breakdown of the communication. It is not allowed to set the following standard requests:

  USBH_DEVICE_EVENT_ADD,
  USBH_DEVICE_EVENT_REMOVE
} USBH_DEVICE_EVENT;

Enumeration constants

Constant Description

USBH_DEVICE_EVENT_REMOVE Indicates that a device has been removed.

USBH_FUNCTION

Description

Is used as a member for the USBH_HEADER data structure. All function codes use the API function USBH_SubmitUrb() and are handled asynchronously.

Type definition

typedef enum {
  USBH_FUNCTION_CONTROL_REQUEST,
  USBH_FUNCTION_BULK_REQUEST,
  USBH_FUNCTION_INT_REQUEST,
  USBH_FUNCTION_ISO_REQUEST,
  USBH_FUNCTION_RESET_DEVICE,
  USBH_FUNCTION_RESET_ENDPOINT,
  USBH_FUNCTION_ABORT_ENDPOINT,
  USBH_FUNCTION_SET_INTERFACE,
  USBH_FUNCTION_SET_POWER_STATE,
  USBH_FUNCTION_CONFIGURE_EPS
} USBH_FUNCTION;

Enumeration constants

Constant Description
USBH_FUNCTION_CONTROL_REQUEST Is used to send an URB with a control request. It uses the data structure USBH_CONTROL_REQUEST. A control request includes standard, class and vendor defines requests. The standard requests SetAddress, SetConfiguration and SetInterface can not be submitted by this request. These requests require a special handling in the driver. See USBH_FUNCTION_SET_INTERFACE for details.
USBH_FUNCTION_BULK_REQUEST Is used to transfer data to or from a bulk endpoint. It uses the data structure USBH_BULK_INT_REQUEST.
USBH_FUNCTION_INT_REQUEST Is used to transfer data to or from an interrupt endpoint. It uses the data structure USBH_BULK_INT_REQUEST. The interval is defined by the endpoint descriptor.
USBH_FUNCTION_ISO_REQUEST Is used to transfer data to or from an ISO endpoint. It uses the data structure USBH_ISO_REQUEST. ISO transfer may not be supported by all host controllers.
USBH_FUNCTION_RESET_DEVICE Sends a USB reset to the device. This removes the device and all its interfaces from the USB stack. The application should abort all pending requests and close all handles to this device. All handles become invalid. The USB stack then starts a new enumeration of the device. All interfaces will get new interface Ids. This request can be part of an error recovery or part of special class protocols like DFU. This function uses only the URB header.
USBH_FUNCTION_RESET_ENDPOINT Clears an error condition on a special endpoint. If a data transfer error occurs that cannot be handled in hardware the driver stops the endpoint and does not allow further data transfers before the endpoint is reset with this function. On a bulk or interrupt endpoint the host driver sends a Clear Feature Endpoint Halt request. This informs the device about the hardware error. The driver resets the data toggle bit for this endpoint. This request expects that no pending URBs are scheduled on this endpoint. Pending URBs must be aborted with the URB based function USBH_FUNCTION_ABORT_ENDPOINT. This function uses the data structure USBH_ENDPOINT_REQUEST.
USBH_FUNCTION_ABORT_ENDPOINT Aborts all pending requests on an endpoint. The host controller calls the completion function with a status code USBH_STATUS_CANCELED. The completion of the URBs may be delayed. The application should wait until all pending requests have been returned by the driver before the handle is closed or USBH_FUNCTION_RESET_ENDPOINT is called.
USBH_FUNCTION_SET_INTERFACE Selects a new alternate setting for the interface. There must be no pending requests on any endpoint to this interface. The interface handle does not become invalid during this operation. The number of endpoints may be changed. This request uses the data structure USBH_SET_INTERFACE.
USBH_FUNCTION_SET_POWER_STATE Is used to set the power state for a device. There must be no pending requests for this device if the device is set to the suspend state. The request uses the data structure USBH_SET_POWER_STATE. After the enumeration the device is in normal power state.
USBH_FUNCTION_CONFIGURE_EPS Internal use.

Human Interface Device (HID) class

This chapter describes the emUSB-Host Human interface device class driver and its usage. The HID class is part of the BASE package. The HID-class code is linked in only if registered by the application program.

Introduction

The emUSB-Host HID class software allows accessing USB Human Interface Devices. It implements the USB Human interface Device class protocols specified by the USB Implementers Forum. The entire API of this class driver is prefixed with the “USBH_HID_” text. This chapter describes the architecture, the features and the programming interface of this software component.

Overview

Two types of HIDs are currently supported: Keyboard and Mouse. For both, the application can set a callback routine which is invoked whenever a message from either one is received.

Types of HIDs:

Example code

Printer class (Add-On)

This chapter describes the emUSB-Host printer class software component and how to use it. The printer class is an optional extension to emUSB-Host.

Introduction

The printer class software component of emUSB-Host allows the communication to USB printing devices. It implements the USB printer class protocol specified by the USB Implementers Forum.

This chapter describes the architecture, the features and the programming interface of this software component. To improve the readability of application code, all the functions and data types of this API are prefixed with the “USBH_PRINTER_” text.

In the following text the word “printer” is used to refer to any USB device that produces a hard copy of data sent to it.

Overview

A printer connected to the emUSB-Host is automatically configured and added to an internal list. The application receives a notification each time a printer is added or removed over a callback. In order to communicate to a printer the application should open a handle to it. The printers are identified by an index. The first connected printer gets assigned the index 0, the second index 1, and so on. You can use this index to identify a printer in a call to USBH_PRINTER_OpenByIndex() function.

Features

The following features are provided:

Example code

An example application which uses the API is provided in the USBH_Printer_Start.c file of your shipment. This example displays information about the printer and its connection status in the I/O terminal of the debugger. In addition the text “Hello World” is printed out at the top of the current page when the first printer connects.

USBH_MSD_UseAheadCache()

Description

Enables the read-ahead-cache functionality.

Prototype

void USBH_MSD_UseAheadCache(int OnOff);

Parameters

Parameter Description
OnOff 1 : on, 0 - off.

Additional information

The read-ahead-cache is a functionality which makes sure that read accesses to an MSD will always read a minimal amount of sectors (normally at least four). The rest of the sectors which have not been requested directly will be stored in a cache and subsequent reads will be supplied with data from the cache instead of the actual device.

This functionality is mainly used as a workaround for certain MSD devices which crash when single sectors are being read directly from the device too often. Enabling the cache will cause a slight drop in performance, but will make sure that all MSD devices which are affected by the aforementioned issue do not crash. Unless USBH_MSD_SetAheadBuffer() was used before calling this function with a “1” as parameter the function will try to allocate a buffer for eight sectors (4096 bytes) from the emUSB-Host memory pool.

USBH_MSD_SetAheadBuffer()

Description

Sets a user provided buffer for the read-ahead-cache functionality.

Prototype

void USBH_MSD_SetAheadBuffer(const USBH_MSD_AHEAD_BUFFER * pAheadBuf);

Parameters

Parameter Description
pAheadBuf Pointer to a USBH_MSD_AHEAD_BUFFER structure which holds the buffer information.

Additional information

This function has to be called before enabling the read-ahead-cache with USBH_MSD_UseAheadCache(). The buffer should have space for at least four sectors (2048 bytes), but eight sectors (4096 bytes) are suggested for better performance. The buffer size must be a multiple of 512.

MTP Device Driver (Add-On)

This chapter describes the optional emUSB-Host add-on “MTP device driver”. It allows communication with MTP USB devices.

Introduction

The MTP driver software component of emUSB-Host allows communication with MTP devices such as Android or Windows smartphones, media players, cameras and so on. A file system is not required to use emUSB-Host MTP. This chapter provides an explanation of the functions available to application developers via the MTP driver software. All the functions and data types of this add-on are prefixed with the “USBH_MTP_” text.

Overview

An MTP device connected to the emUSB-Host is automatically configured and added to an internal list. If the MTP module has been registered, it is notified via a callback when an MTP device has been added or removed. The driver then can notify the application program when a callback function has been registered via USBH_MTP_RegisterNotification(). In order to communicate with such a device, the application has to call USBH_MTP_Open(), passing the device index. MTP devices are identified by an index. The first connected device gets assigned the index 0, the second index 1, and so on.

Features

The following features are provided:

Example code

An example application which demonstrates the API is provided in the USBH_MTP_Start.c file.

See USBH_MTP_CheckLock() for further information.

USBH_MTP_Reset()

Description

Executes the MTP reset command on the device. This command sets the device in the default state. “Default state” can mean different things for different manufacturers. This MTP command is rarely supported by devices. This command will close all sessions on the device side. Therefore the host application should call USBH_MTP_Close() after a successful call to this function.

USBH_STATUS_SUCCESS An error occurred.

USBH_MTP_CreateObject()

Description

Writes a new object onto the device. MTP does not allow files to be written in chunks, therefore a callback mechanism is implemented to allow the embedded host to write files of any size onto the MTP device. As soon as the contents of the first buffer have been written or the file has been completely written onto the device - the registered callback is called. Inside the callback the user can either put new data into the previously used buffer or change the buffer by modifying the pNextBuffer parameter inside the USBH_SEND_DATA_FUNC callback. Using two (or more) buffers and switching between them has the advantage that the MTP module can write continuously to the device.

Prototype

USBH_STATUS USBH_MTP_CreateObject(USBH_MTP_DEVICE_HANDLE   hDevice,
                                  U8                       StorageIndex,
                                  USBH_MTP_CREATE_INFO   * pInfo);

Parameters

Parameter Description
hDevice Handle to the opened device.
StorageIndex Zero-based index of the storage, see USBH_MTP_GetNumStorages().
pInfo  in/out  Pointer to a USBH_MTP_CREATE_INFO structure where parameters for the new object are stored.

Return value

= USBH_STATUS_SUCCESS Successful. On success the member ObjectID of the USBH_MTP_CREATE_INFO will contain the new object ID provided by the device.
USBH_STATUS_SUCCESS An error occurred.

USBH_MTP_ReadFile()

Description

Reads a file from the device. MTP does not allow files to be read in chunks, therefore a callback mechanism is implemented to allow embedded devices with limited memory to be able to read files of any size from an MTP device. The callback is called as soon as the user provided buffer is full or the file has been completely read. In the callback the user can either process the data in the user buffer or change the user buffer by writing the pNextBuffer parameter inside the USBH_RECEIVE_DATA_FUNC callback and process the data in the first buffer in another task. The second method has the advantage that the callback can return immediately and the MTP module can continue reading from the device.

Prototype

USBH_STATUS USBH_MTP_ReadFile(USBH_MTP_DEVICE_HANDLE   hDevice,
                              U32                      ObjectID,
                              USBH_RECEIVE_DATA_FUNC * pfReadData,
                              void                   * pUserContext,
                              U8                     * pUserBuf,
                              U32                      UserBufSize);

Parameters

Parameter Description
hDevice Handle to the opened device.
ObjectID Object ID of the file to read.
pfReadData Pointer to a user-provided USBH_RECEIVE_DATA_FUNC callback function which will be called when the file is being received.
pUserContext Pointer to a user context which is passed to the callback function.
pUserBuf Pointer to a buffer where the data will be stored. This parameter can be NULL. In this case the callback is called directly and a buffer has to be set from there.
UserBufSize Size of the user buffer.

Return value

= USBH_STATUS_SUCCESS Successful.
USBH_STATUS_SUCCESS An error occurred.
