37. USB High Speed Host Port (UHPHS)
37.1
Description
The USB High Speed Host Port (UHPHS) interfaces the USB with the host application. It handles Open HCI proto-
col (Open Host Controller Interface) as well as Enhanced HCI protocol (Enhanced Host Controller Interface).

Embedded Characteristics
The SAM9M10 features USB communication ports as follows:
• 2 Ports USB Host full speed OHCI and High speed EHCI
• 1 Device High speed
USB Host Port A is directly connected to the first UTMI transceiver.
The Host Port B is multiplexed with the USB device High speed and connected to the second UTMI port. The
selection between Host Port B and USB device high speed is controlled by a the UDPHS enable bit located in the
UDPHS_CTRL control register.

37.2.1
EHCI
The USB Host Port controller is fully compliant with the Enhanced HCI specification. The USB Host Port User Inter-
face (registers description) can be found in the Enhanced HCI Rev 1.0 Specification available on

. The standard EHCI USB stack driver can be easily ported to
Atmel’s architecture in the same way all existing class drivers run, without hardware specialization.
37.2.2
OHCI
The USB Host Port integrates a root hub and transceivers on downstream ports. It provides several Full-speed
half-duplex serial communication ports at a baud rate of 12 Mbit/s. Up to 127 USB devices (printer, camera,
mouse, keyboard, disk, etc.) and the USB hub can be connected to the USB host in the USB “tiered star” topology.
