INTRODUCTION

The ST7HUB is a USB microcontroller based on ST7 core, which is an enhanced industry-standard architecture. The USB module of the ST7HUB is a compound device, consisting of a 3-port HUB and an attached embedded function. To the USB host, the embedded function appears as an attached port of the HUB with its own device address and endpoints.
