Abstract
A USB controller and method of implementing a full transfer automation mode is described. The USB controller may have a host interface module configured to generate hardware logic signals for communication to a backend module having buffer memory. The backend module may be configured to generate hardware logic signals for communication with the host interface module such that data transfer within the USB device may be implemented without the need for processor intervention to handle routing of data packets during a USB bulk data transfer.
