How many endpoints does STM32F105RBT6 USB have?

arilink · ‎2021-10-13

The STM32F105RBT6 manual shows that there are 1 control endpoint, 3 IN endpoints, 3 OUT endpoints, but the USB driver code generated by CubeMX now shows hpcd_USB_OTG_FS.Init.dev_endpoints = 4; are these 3 IN and OUT endpoints shared? 4 endpoints and 1 is the control endpoint for user-defined use, only 3 are not enough and they are less than the lower-end STM32F103

Hello @arilink ,

First let me thank you for your feedback.

In fact, each USB has 1 control end point + x IN EPs + OUT EPs (IN and OUT endpoints are always equal) then the generated value must be x+1.

Thus, dev_endpoints value is correctly generated by CubeMX: hpcd_USB_OTG_FS.Init.dev_endpoints = 4.

Furthermore, backing to STM32F105xx, STM32F107xx, STM32F2xx and STM32F4xx USB On-The-Go host and device library User Manual > OTG_FS interface main features, the OTG_FS interface has four bidirectional endpoints, including 1 control endpoint and 3 device endpoints which support bulk, interrupt and isochronous transfers.

Hope this answers your question, if this this case, please click on the Select as Best button on my reply . This will help other members of the community find this solution more quickly.

Whatever the number is, it's never enough for all possible use modes.

The 'F103 has an entirely different USB module, device only, whereas the 'F105/107/'F2/'F4/'F7 and the upper-end 'L4 have device-host-OTG module (of which 'F2/'F4/'F7 have two), with number of endpoints changing from model to model.

I see. Thank you very much for your answers

I don’t understand why the number of endpoints of high-end models is less than that of low-end models, and 4 endpoints are not enough for USB composite devices.

The OTG module is much more complex and probably consumers more silicon space per endpoint.

At the end of the day, why would it matter - just take it as a fact and move on. If 2x3+control EP won't suit your application, choose a different STM32 model (or any other solution out there).
