STM32F3 Composite USB (CDC with flow control + Bulk)

Postby mobyfab » Sat Dec 28, 2013 6:39 pm

Hey,

I made a quick test using the IAD USB class and it seems to work fine. (not finished implementing the Bulk IF)

It's running a CDC interface and bulk interface.

The CDC interface can handle flow control commands (RTS/DTR)
I needed that to emulate some legacy devices while still having access to a custom (bulk) USB interface.

You need special drivers on Windows as the ones by ST won't work. They are not designed for IAD, just normal CDC.
Works out of the box on Linux. (/dev/ttyACM0)

Code is here:

Hi,

What the IAD class does?

It allows to use multiple drivers (device functions) with one USB device.

In my case I have a CDC driver and a Bulk USB (WinUSB) driver, but we could have more as long as there are enough endpoints.
You just need to specify which interface the driver needs to use in the inf files for windows, it's automatic on linux.

The end result is like having multiple devices into one.
I believe having 3 CDC is possible on a F3. (uses 6 endpoints out of 7, 2 per interface)

Bulk interface is working as well now.

You can use this to test it: http://winusbnet.codeplex.com/wikipage? ... Test%20App
guid is 9f543223-cede-4fa3-b376-a25ce9a30e74 (you can find it in the bulk driver .inf file)

It will reply with the value you send it, multiplied by 2.

I might make a driver similar to the serial usb.
