Joe ... I think your missing the point. There has to be some interface (other than the external USB side) that is used to talk to the controller. A stand-alone self aware controller that thinks on its own doesn't exist. What is this simple interface? Is it a chip select with a read/write indicator? Is it synchronous .. ie does it have a clock? I would think that the actual timing would be a secondary problem that you would tackle after you have designed the interface to AMBA. Also .... if you haven't already done so ... you should read the AMBA spec. located on the ARM web site. You're not gonna get anywhere without understanding what your trying to interface to. Mike

      I have a simple USB Devcie controller with some inputs and
outputs, no special interfacing signals are attached to it. It's a
simple USB Core running at fullspeed. My concern is how to tackle
timing issues while interfacing it with ARM core.

Joe,
You are making us to answer question without knowing your background.
Why donot you tell us which USB core you are having and what is this
non AHB interface
you are talking.
you got to describe your problem.

Good luck
Regards
Praveen

how can I possibly answer that without knowing what interface you do have? What are the non-AHB signals? I'm a good designer but not that good! Mike

        What i would like to know is how to interface USB1.1 which is
having non-AHB interfacing signals, which is working at fullspeed
(12Mhz) with ARM processor which is operating at 25 MHz usign AMBA 2.0
specification.

dude what information are u looking for? The AMBA spec is readily available from ARM website. Whose USB core are u trying to implement? If u are asking for doumenation for that ... would you not have received that with the IP .. even if it was a long time ago. Does the USB core have an AMBA interface? Or is the interface something else that you want to modify to connect to an AMBA bus? What is the interface? We need more detail if we are going to help you. Mike

Hey,

      I have USB1.1 hard IP and i want to interface this with ARM
processor using AMBA AHB Specification 2.0 for high speed operation.
The vendor of USB core is not supporting us becoz we have bought it
long back. We have only USB datasheet nothing else. Now you please tell
me is there any document to refer. 

Rgds...
Joe

There is no easy/simple answer for you question. It boils down to understand what all those signals do and how to drive them. For example it took us more than two man-years to design a fully verified and functional AHB USB controller. So please don't expect to solve this problem in a few emails to a news group ! Best solution for you would be to either purchase a USB IP Core or use an external device for USB interface.

Hi Rudolf and Prasannakumar,

   Thanks for your reply. Let me put my question like this. In my USB
core i have so many interfacing signals which are interfacing with the
ARM Processor and the external world (D+ and D- etc...). What i would
like to know is how to handle all these interfacing signals with AMBA
AHB/APB, and is there any reference document which describes the timing
issues between the USB core and AHB Bus signals according to AMBA
Specification 2.0.

Regards...
Joe

Please take a look at our USB IP Cores as well (www.asics.ws), we have USB 1.1 and USB 2.0 Device and OTG IP Cores. All of our IPs support AHB, OPB, AVALON, PLB, OCP, WISHBONE and many custom buses as well.
