"This series of books is truly an important part of my library.... They are consistently accurate.... I would recommend them to anyone doing hardware design or support, as well as to any developers who write low-level system code." Paul Tomlinson "Windows Developer's Journal" "Universal Serial Bus System Architecture "provides an in-depth discussion of USB and is based on the 1.0 version of the Universal Serial Bus specification. It focuses on the USB protocol, signaling environment, and electrical specifications, along with the hardware/software interaction required to configure and access USB devices. Although this book does not focus on writing USB device drivers, it does contain useful background information that aids in understanding the USB software environment. Key topics include: differential signaling environment device configuration suspend/resume operations device descriptors device requests (commands) transfer mechanisms USB transaction protocols bus-powered devices self-powered devices host controller designs (UHC and OHC) error detection and handling device class definitions If you design or test hardware or software that involves USB, "Universal Serial Bus System Architecture "is an essential, time-saving tool. The "PC System Architecture Series" is a crisply written and comprehensive set of guides to the most important PC hardware standards. Each title is designed to illustrate the relationship between the software and hardware and explains thoroughly the architecture, features, and operations of systems built using one particular type of chip or hardware specification.

CD-ROM contains: USB 2.0 overview.

This unique guide goes beyond all the USB specification overviews to provide designers with the expert knowledge and skills they need to design and implement USB I/O devices.

••PCI EXPRESS is considered to be the most general purpose bus so it should appeal to a wide audience in this arena.•Today's buses are becoming more specialized to meet the needs of the particular system applications, building the need for this book.•Mindshare and their only competitor in this space, Solari, team up in this new book.

Have you ever wondered how to use the USB hardware to send and receive data from an attached device? Wondered how to detect and initialize the controller, retrieve the device's descriptors, configure the device, and then communicate with it to send or retrieve its data? This book explains the ins and outs of the four major controllers, starting with the UHCI, OHCI, EHCI, and then the new Super Speed xHCI Controller. It explains in detail how to communicate with the various devices such as HID mice and keyboards, mass storage devices, including UASP devices, printers, and other USB devices. If you are interested in working with bare hardware to communicate with the USB, with no operating system to get in the way, you don't need to look any further. This book does not need to be on the shelf every USB enthusiast, it needs to be right on the desk. Third Edition -- 20180420
