Abstract：The processing speed and capability of 32bit embeded system based on ARM
procesor is very high and powerful, how to design the communication interface between ARM processor and host or other system, and how to enhance the capacity of communication,becomes a question of embeded system design. This article brings out a design of USB interface for ARM embeded system, compared with the RS-232 serial port, USB port increases the data thruput of ARM embeded system greatly, compared with the ethernet port, USB port has PnP characteristic , and has bulk transfers , isochronous transfers and other data flow types, it is more suitable for audio and vedio data flow transferring. This article discuss the hardware and software implementation detailly, and applies USB port to audio PCM stream transferring, the result show that the voice is very mellifluent, so this design is worthful to refer.
Key words：ARM, Embeded System, USB, Audio PCM stream.
