Abstract
Embodiments comprising a memory and a USB host controller coupled to the memory. The power efficiency of a USB during asynchronous transfers is increased by limiting usage of an asynchronous schedule stored in the memory when servicing a scheduled asynchronous transfer endpoint. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.
