usb device detection by the host

[wild roze]

hi
im learning the usb . but i couldn't understand one portion ie, the detection of the usb device .
when we connect a device to port , how the host recognizes that a device is connected .
i want know the hardware technic of that process .
anybody pls help me ....

As a first step, resistors connected to D+ and D- signal a low speed or full speed device. After that, communication through USB data lines is started. Review the USB specification (from USB.org/developers) or a tutorial. Many informations are available from this site **broken link removed**

but i didn't get the data that i hav expected from the link u hav given.
i need the device detection process , i mean what circuitry will recognize the device detection ..by doing wat ?

It's all in the USB specification. See USB Spec 2.0 Clause 7.1.5 Device Speed identification

A USB host detects the speed of a USB slave device by sensing the status of the two USB data lines.
The two data lines are commonly referred to as the D+ and D- lines. The USB master has very weak (15K) pull-downs on both the D+ and D- line. The slave device will have a relatively strong (1.5 K) pull-up on one of these two lines. If the slave pulls D+ high, it indicates the slave is a high-speed USB device (12 Mb/s). If, instead, the slave pulls D- high, then it indicates the slave can only sustain low speed USB data rates (1.5 Mb/s).
These data line pull-ups also serve another function. When the USB host detects that both data lines are low, it assumes nothing is attached. This is referred to as a "disconnect" condition in the USB specification. As soon as one of the data lines is pulled up, the host assumes that a new slave has been plugged in, and it goes out and tries to configure it. This will be recognized as a "connect" condition by the USB host or hub.

universal serial bus fundamentals

hi
i would like to know how long does it take to study a usb except programming .
my boss told me to study that with in 6days . is it possible ?

Re: universal serial bus fundamentals

Basically yes, depending on your reading skills. I think, you already got a lot of literature suggestions.

kkkk....
i guess for me it would definitely take 2 weeks . m going through the descriptors nw.

 

[FvM]

I agree, that there are different levels of understanding. To e.g. fully understand the USB enumeration process, you preferably want to observe it in a real hardware setup, having either a hardware USB monitor or a software monitor running on the PC. Descriptors have different complexity depending on the involved device type.

But is it a good idea to say it's all too much? I would rather say: I'll do it and focus on the basic things. If you say 2 weeks, you'll get the same problem on a higher level, I guess.
