Device Table#

The collection of devices governed by a controller is referred to as a device table. The controller is responsible for creating this aggregate and sending it to the computer following a reset. The table consists of an addressed list of device descriptors.

Device Address#

Each device descriptor entry in the device table requires a device address. This is a unique, 32-bit number with the following format:

Reserved(16-bit).Hub_Index(8-bit).Device_Index(8-bit)
  • Reserved: Reserved bits. Must be all zeros.

  • Hub_Index: The index of the hub within the controller that the device is managed by.

  • Device_Index: A unique index of each device within its hub. A valid Device_Index ranges from 0 to 0xFD. 0xFE is reserved and 0xFF indicates an invalid device.
