Normally you don't talk to the USB port, you talk to a device that is connected via the USB.

example: a USB printer uses a printer driver, you talk to that driver which presents
itself as a printer (you don't have to be aware there is USB involved at all).

same is true if you have a USB-to-RS232C cable, or a USB-to-Ethernet cable.

When I bought my USB-to-serial cable, it came with a CD-ROM containing a driver.
When I installed it, it turned the port into a regular serial port, so it shows up
in all serial port enumerations, and most/all serial apps can use it, whether
HyperTerminal or some .NET based app using SerialPort class.

The app never is aware the USB-based serial port is connected in a different manner,
all the nasty details are hidden by Windows and the device drivers.


If the above does not satisfy you, you can build your own electronics target (say
a microcontroller based design), give it a USB interface, an operating system and a USB
driver; at PC side you would also need your own device driver so you can support read
and write operations from and to your device. Most often it is not worth the effort,
why reinvent the existing protocols as used on serial ports, Ethernet, etc?
