CYUSB3015-BZXIT

Application Specific Microcontrollers Overview

The CYUSB3015-BZXIT is a configurable SuperSpeed USB peripheral controller from the EZ-USB SX3 family. It integrates a 32-bit ARM926EJ-S core operating at 200 MHz with 512 KB of embedded SRAM. The device supports USB 3.2 Gen 1 and USB 2.0 peripherals, featuring a 5-Gbps SuperSpeed PHY. It includes a general configurable interface supporting up to 100 MHz operation with 8-, 16-, 24-, or 32-bit data buses. The component operates within a voltage range of 1.2 V for the core and 1.8 V to 3.3 V for I/Os, housed in a 121-ball BGA package.

Application Specific Microcontrollers Feature Summary

• Integrates a 200-MHz ARM926EJ-S CPU with 512-KB embedded SRAM
• Supports USB 3.2 Gen 1 (5 Gbps) and USB 2.0 backward compatibility
• Features a general configurable interface for Slave FIFO or parallel camera connections
• Includes independent power domains for core (1.2 V) and I/O (1.8 V–3.3 V)

Application Specific Microcontrollers Applications

• USB Webcams and document cameras
• HDMI and SDI USB video capture cards
• Industrial and medical imaging devices
• USB logic analyzers and oscilloscopes

Application Specific Microcontrollers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'BZXIT' against the manufacturer's ordering guide to confirm package type and tape-and-reel packaging details. Ensure the design accounts for the required external components, such as the 19.2-MHz crystal and SPI flash memory, as these are not included on-chip. Confirm that the application voltage levels match the specified I/O domains before procurement.

Application Specific Microcontrollers Selection Notes

Select the CYUSB3015 variant specifically for USB vendor class applications requiring high-speed data transfer. Compare it against the CYUSB3017 if USB Video Class (UVC) and Audio Class (UAC) support is required instead. Ensure the system design accommodates the 121-ball BGA footprint and the necessary thermal dissipation for the ARM926EJ-S core during continuous operation.

Application Specific Microcontrollers Part Context

The CYUSB3015 belongs to the EZ-USB SX3 family, which also includes the CYUSB3016 and CYUSB3017. These controllers share the same physical package and core architecture but differ in their supported USB classes and default configurations. The SX3 series serves as a flexible alternative to previous FX3 controllers, offering enhanced configurability through the EZ-USB SX3 Configuration Utility.

Application Specific Microcontrollers Replacement Considerations

The CYUSB3016 is a pin-compatible alternative within the SX3 family, differing primarily in supported USB classes. Direct replacement requires verifying that the target application does not rely on specific UVC/UAC features reserved for the CYUSB3017.
