USB002

Controllers Overview

The USB002 is a discontinued USB interface integrated circuit manufactured by Infineon Technologies. It functions as a bridge controller converting USB signals to I2C communication. The device supports an 8.5V supply voltage for non-volatile memory (NVM) applications. Official documentation classifies it under USB Controllers and Interface ICs with the type defined as Bridge, USB to I2C.

Controllers Feature Summary

• Provides hardware bridging between USB host interfaces and I2C slave devices.

Controllers Applications

• Connecting USB hosts to I2C-based non-volatile memory chips.

Controllers Procurement Notes

This component is officially listed as End of Life (EOL). Mouser indicates restricted availability in certain regions. Verify current stock status with authorized distributors before design finalization. Confirm RoHS compliance requirements as sources indicate lead content.

Controllers Selection Notes

Select this part only if legacy NVM compatibility requires specific USB-to-I2C bridging. Evaluate alternative modern controllers for new designs due to EOL status. Ensure system voltage matches the 8.5V support specification.

Controllers Part Context

Infineon’s EZ-USB portfolio includes various peripheral and bridge controllers. The USB002 belongs to the serial bridge controller category, distinct from high-speed FX series devices. It targets specific low-speed I2C interfacing needs within the broader USB interface ecosystem.
