Please go through http://www.lvr.com/usb.htm, I will recommend you to read read Jan Axelson's, USB Complete before doing anything else.

Also the USB specification (available from usb.org) should be considered when starting a project. It basically answers your question by just looking at the content.

Re: Diffrence USB Host Controller & USB function Contro


Hi Sobhitk,

Host controller means The controller to which Device is connected.

Function controller means The controller to which Host is connected.

Example.

CPU USB root hub is connected Flash drive.
CPU act as host and Flash drive act as Device.

Now, the USb controller in the CPU (USB Host) is the USB Host controller.

and the USB controller in the Flash Drive (Device) is the USB function controller.

I hope this is the answer to you question.

For further detail, please see USB 2.0 specification.

Thanks,
Nirav Bhatt
