The CY7C68000 EZ-USB TX2 is the latest addition to the rapidly expanding USB 2.0 product portfolio from Cypress Semiconductor

TX2 is a stand-alone high-speed USB 2.0 transceiver that is compliant with the USB 2.0 Transceiver Macrocell Interface (UTMI) specification. This device includes a 8 or 16bit interface for applications such as scanners, printers, digital camcorders, and digital still cameras. "With the continued competition in the USB markets, design time and cost become primary issues for many engineers", said Jeff Chang, product marketing manager for Cypress's Personal Communications Division.

"By offering a UTMI-compliant transceiver with proven analog technology, Cypress is able to provide a low-risk, low-cost, fast time-to-market solution, especially for designers who need an integration path".

The CY7C68000 has successfully passed the full suite of compliance tests set by the USB Implementers Forum (USB-IF).

This device will be added to the USB-IF Integrators List, signifying to USB developers that it has met the strict specifications for USB 2.0 devices, further adding to Cypress's USB-IF certified family of products.

The CY7C68000 is available in two package options: 56-pin SSOP and 48 FBGA.

Samples are available now, with production quantities expected later in Q3 priced at $2.45 in volumes of 100,000 units (for the SSOP).
