Enumeration Process
The USB protocol is a master/slave protocol. The host starts the enumeration, sending requests
to the device through the control endpoint. The device handles standard requests as defined in
the USB Specification.
The device also handles some class requests defined in the CDC class.
Unhandled requests are STALLed.
11.5.3.4
Communication Endpoints
There are two communication endpoints and endpoint 0 is used for the enumeration process.
Endpoint 1 is a 64-byte Bulk OUT endpoint and endpoint 2 is a 64-byte Bulk IN endpoint. SAM-
BA Boot commands are sent by the host through endpoint 1. If required, the message is split by
the host into several data payloads by the host driver.
If the command requires a response, the host can send IN transactions to pick up the response.
