We had our hardware engineer add in a usb3380 chip to our board in place of the usb2380 (with some small wiring adjustments, and utilizing the usb 2.0 pins only). It has the EXACT same issue as the 2280, which leads me to the following: 1) I have probably implemented the usb2380 device correctly (or at least in line with the usb3380 as a usb 2.0 device) 2) That paranoia loop is being triggered/entered erroneously, or the usb3380 driver does not properly set itself up for usb 2.0 connections. 3) The CDC ACM driver may be issuing short reads/writes, while the other gadget drivers do not, meaning that all short read/write operations can be problematic Does anyone have any ideas on this issue?
