ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is an apparatus and method for flexible controlling endpoint memory within an USB device. In one embodiment, the method includes a USB device receiving a first token packet from a USB host, wherein the first token packet includes a first endpoint number. The first endpoint number is stored into a first tag in memory corresponding to a first data buffer in the USB device. The USB device then receives a data packet from the USB host, wherein the data packet comprises endpoint data. The; endpoint data of the data packet is stored into the first data buffer.
