RTL Design of USB 2.0 Transceiver Macrocell

Abstract

The aim of this study was to investigate the different problems associated with the design and implementation of a USB 2.0 Transceiver Macrocell. This work has lead to a working implementation of USB 2.0 Transceiver Macrocell that can used as a reference for future implementations. The universal serial bus (USB) is a fast and flexible interface for connecting devices to computers. Every new PC has at least a couple of USB ports. The interface is versatile enough to use with standard peripherals like keyboards and disk drivers as well as more specialized devices, including one-of-a-kind designs. USB is designed from the ground up to be easy for end users, with no user configuration required in hardware or software. USB is the likely solution any time you want to use a computer to communicate with devices outside the computer. The interface is suitable for one-of-kind and small-scale designs as well as mass-produced, standard peripheral types. USB is versatile enough to be usable with many kinds of peripherals. Instead of having a different connector type and supporting hardware for peripheral, one interface serves many.
