+.Sh NAME
+.Nm ehci
+.Nd USB Enhanced Host Controller Interface
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Cd "ehci* at acpi?"
+.Cd "ehci* at cardbus?"
+.Cd "ehci* at fdt?"
+.Cd "ehci* at pci?"
+.Cd "usb* at ehci?"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+driver provides support for the USB Enhanced Host Controller Interface,
+which provides an interface to
+.Xr usb 4
+devices.
+.Pp
+EHCI controllers are peculiar in that they can only handle the USB 2.0
+protocol.
+This means that they normally have one or more companion controllers
+(i.e.,
+.Xr ohci 4
+or
+.Xr uhci 4 )
+or an internal rate-matching hub to handle USB 1.x devices.
+.Pp
+If at least one companion controller is present, each USB connector is
+electrically connected to two USB controllers.
+The handling of this is totally automatic,
+but can be noticed since USB 1.x and USB 2.0 devices plugged in to the same
+connector appear to connect to different USB buses.
