USB class 0x0b Chip/SmartCard

Class code 0x0b marks a device or interface as Chip/SmartCard. Operating systems read this value from the descriptor and bind a generic class driver, which is why most chip/smartcard hardware works without a vendor driver even when the VID:PID pair is unrecognised.

Windows exposes the same value in the compatible IDs list as USB\Class_0B, extended with &SubClass_xx&Prot_xx for the subclass and protocol below.
