USB Hub controller

Hi,

I am using a TM4c123 series controllers with 1 USB host port. Now I am using the same port using the a USB switch to use the keyboard and pendrive. But i want to use them both without switching. I guess this is possible if a USB HUB controller with 2 or 3 downstream ports is available. So how should go about it, are there any controllers which such capabilities available.

Regards

  • Hi,

    I am newbie to USB protocol.I have read about basic working of USB, how it works, descriptors,
    endpoints and other related things.
    I have now taken a sample code for understanding how USB works. I am using the stellaries USB stack and the MSC example.
    In the stack there is a interrupt handler USB0HostIntHandler which is called continuously which in turn calls other handlers according to ulStatus.
    According to my reading USB is a polling mechanism.I am not understanding how the above mentioned handler is called continuously, even if there is no change on D+ and D- lines.
    This is really important for me to understand as it seems everything starts from here in the USB stack.
