USB-ICC devices are USB devices with the same chip for reader and smart card. They are aften called token.
They follow a different USB specificiation: "Device Class: Smart Card ICCD", Revision 1.0, April 2005.
According to this specification:
The given value indicates the transfer mode used for the communication between the host and the USB-ICC.Version A ICCD tokens are:
00h bulk transfers optional interrupt-IN
01h version A, Control transfers, (no interrupt-IN)
02h version B, Control transfers (optional interrupt-IN).
