Interrupt Transfer

Interrupt Transfers have a limited latency to or from a device. In USB, an Interrupt Transfer, or Interrupt Pipe, has a defined polling rate between 1ms and 255ms. The developer can define how often the host can request a data transfer from the device.

For example, for a mouse, a data transfer rate at every 10 ms can be guaranteed. However, defining the polling rate does not guarantee that data will be transferred every 10 ms, but rather that the transaction will occur somewhere within the tenth frame. For this reason, a certain amount of timing jitter is inherent in a USB transaction.

Typically, Interrupt Transfer data consists of event notifications, characters, or coordinates from a pointing device.
