CYUSB3015-BZXI

Application Specific Microcontrollers Overview

The CYUSB3015-BZXI is a configurable SuperSpeed USB peripheral controller from the EZ-USB SX3 family. It integrates a 200-MHz ARM926EJ-S core with 512 KB of embedded SRAM and supports USB 3.2 Gen 1 (5 Gbps) and USB 2.0 protocols. The device features a general configurable interface supporting up to 100 MHz operation with 8-, 16-, 24-, or 32-bit data buses, functioning as a Slave FIFO or parallel camera interface. It operates on independent power domains: 1.2 V for the core and 1.8 V to 3.3 V for I/Os. The component is housed in a 121-ball BGA package.

Application Specific Microcontrollers Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific ordering suffix matches the required pin configuration and voltage levels. Confirm RoHS compliance status through official manufacturer documentation. Ensure the source provides valid datasheets and quality reports. Check for any specific environmental certifications required by the target application. Validate the package type against the design footprint requirements.

Application Specific Microcontrollers Selection Notes

Select this variant if the application requires a configurable interface for direct connection to FPGAs, ASICs, or image sensors via parallel data buses. Choose this model over other SX3 variants based on the specific GPIO count and interface width requirements defined in the ordering information table. Ensure the system design accommodates the separate power domains for core and I/O supplies.

Application Specific Microcontrollers Part Context

The CYUSB3015 belongs to the EZ-USB SX3 family, which also includes the CYUSB3016 and CYUSB3017. These devices share the same core architecture but differ in their specific interface configurations and supported protocols. The SX3 series serves as a bridge between external peripherals and SuperSpeed USB connections, offering flexibility through software-configurable interfaces.

Application Specific Microcontrollers Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements within the same family include the CYUSB3016 and CYCYUSB3017. Verify compatibility regarding the specific interface width and protocol support (UVC vs. Vendor Class) before substitution. Consult the official datasheet for detailed differences in pin mappings and electrical characteristics.
