USB Introduction
-----------------

USB (Universal Serial Bus) is a universal bus standard used to connect hosts and peripheral devices. A USB host can establish a connection with USB devices through a USB interface, enabling functions such as data transfer and power supply.

USB-IF (USB Implementers Forum) is the organization responsible for establishing USB standards. It defines USB standards, including USB 1.1, USB 2.0, USB 3.0, and others. USB-IF specifies protocols for the physical layer, data link layer, transport layer, session layer, presentation layer, and more for the USB interface. It also defines USB Device Class standards, with common device classes such as HID (Human Interface Device), MSC (Mass Storage Class), CDC (Communication Device Class), Audio, Video, and more.

Espressif's ESP32-S2/S3/C3 chips come with built-in USB-OTG or USB-Serial-JTAG peripherals, supporting a variety of USB applications. These include USB multimedia applications, USB communication applications, USB storage applications, USB human interface applications, and more.

* For :doc:`self-powered devices, an additional IO is required to check the VBUS voltage <./usb_device_self_power>`, to detect whether the device is unplugged.
* Reversing the D- D+ connection will not damage the hardware, but the host will be unable to recognize it.

USB-OTG Full-Speed Controller Introduction
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

**USB OTG Full-Speed Controller**: \ refers to a controller that simultaneously supports USB-OTG, USB Host, and USB Device modes, with the capability for mode negotiation and switching. It supports two speeds: Full-speed (12Mbps) and Low-speed (1.5Mbps), and is compatible with both USB 1.1 and USB 2.0 protocols.

Starting from ESP-IDF version 4.4, it includes USB Host and USB Device protocol stacks, as well as various device class drivers, supporting user secondary development.

For more information, please refer to the :doc:`USB-OTG Controller Introduction <./usb_otg>`.

Introduction to USB-Serial-JTAG Controller
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

**USB-Serial-JTAG Controller**\: A dedicated USB controller with both USB Serial and USB JTAG capabilities. It supports firmware download, log printing, CDC transmission, and JTAG debugging through the USB interface. Secondary development such as modifying USB functions or descriptors is not supported.

For more information, please refer to the :doc:`USB-Serial-JTAG Controller Introduction <./usb_otg>`.

USB Full-Speed PHY Introduction
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

**USB Full-Speed PHY**\ : Also known as USB Full-Speed Transceiver, it is used for converting USB controller digital signals to USB bus signal levels and providing bus driving capability. The internal USB Full-speed PHY is connected to external fixed IO pins.

For more information, please refer to the :doc:`USB-PHY Introduction <./usb_phy>`.

ESP32-S3 USB Function Overview
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

The ESP32-S3 is equipped with two built-in USB controllers. **USB OTG Full-Speed Controller** and **USB-Serial-JTAG Controller**\ , Additionally, there is an integrated USB Full-speed PHY. The internal USB PHY is initially connected to the **USB-Serial-JTAG** controller by default. It can be modified through eFuse burning to change the default configuration or dynamically switched through register configuration. It is also possible to enable both controllers simultaneously by adding an external PHY. For detailed information on switching the internal USB PHY, refer to :doc:`USB PHY Switching <./usb_phy>`.
