CY7C68001-56PVXCT

Controllers Overview

The CY7C68001-56PVXCT is a USB interface integrated circuit belonging to the EZ-USB FX2LP family, manufactured by Infineon Technologies. It functions as a high-speed USB peripheral controller supporting USB 2.0 specifications with data transfer rates up to 480 Mbps. The device integrates an 8-bit or 16-bit datapath and includes a low-complexity microcontroller core for firmware execution. It is housed in a 56-pin SSOP package and operates within a commercial temperature range of 0°C to 70°C. The component utilizes a 3.3V power supply and features programmable general-purpose input/output interfaces for connecting to external peripherals.

Controllers Feature Summary

• Integrates a dedicated hardware buffer for efficient USB data handling without excessive CPU intervention
• Supports seamless connectivity with high-bandwidth external devices such as MCUs, ASICs, and FPGAs
• Includes a programmable GPIF for custom protocol implementation and data path control

Controllers Applications

• High-speed USB peripheral controllers requiring direct FPGA or ASIC interfacing
• Industrial camera modules and portable ultrasound systems
• Biometric scanners and 3D camera module implementations

Controllers Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through official Infineon channels or authorized distributors due to the presence of counterfeit risks in the market. Confirm the specific suffix PVXCT corresponds to the required reel packaging format if automated assembly is planned. Ensure that the end-of-life status does not conflict with long-term production requirements before finalizing procurement decisions.

Controllers Selection Notes

Select this component when a robust USB 2.0 High-Speed peripheral solution is needed with flexible external memory or logic interfacing capabilities. The FX2LP architecture is suitable for designs requiring a balance between processing power and interface simplicity. Consider the 56-pin SSOP package constraints regarding PCB space and thermal dissipation during the initial layout phase.
