ICs offer USB access at faster and higher volume data transfers than ever before

Enabling faster and higher volume data transfers than ever before, the FTDI FT600 and FT601 Super Speed USB3.0 ICs offer USB access to a wider range of data-intensive imaging and data acquisition applications. The ICs are now available from RS Components. The series incorporates two vendor class USB devices supported by their D3xx driver. The devices function as Super Speed USB3.0 to FIFO bridges, providing up to 5Gbps of bandwidth devices. The devices support multi-voltage I/O: 1.8V, 2.5V and 3.3V with configurable GPIO support. The devices also support remote wakeup capability, and provides USB battery charger detection with an integrated power-on-reset circuit.
