The sync, pid, etc. tokens are handled entirely by the usb host controller hardware. No software is involved in directly managing them (they are indirectly managed by the usb host controller driver, which manages the host-controller-specific data structures and api) > Also, the Usb specification does not impose any structural constraints on the > actual data being transmitted. Let me know, if I am wrong The usb spec imposes no constraints on the actual data being transmitted.
