USB 2.0 Hi-Speed Host Controller IC Provides 480 Mbit/s

FTDI's new FT313H host controller IC supports USB 2.0 480 Mbits/s, as well as 12 Mbit/s and 1.5 Mbit/s implementations. Designed for easy integration, it adds high speed connectivity capability into a system, enabling fast data transfers, mass storage thumb-drives, addition of wireless dongles and modular system expansion, through its support of standard USB class drivers. The system specifications render the controller useful across many market segments including industrial, networking, medical and consumer. The device runs off a 3.3 V supply, with IO levels configurable between 1.8 V and 3.3 V drawing approximately 78 mA when in full operation, and just under 200 µA while in suspend mode. The IC has an operational temperature range -40°C to 85°C and is available in compact Pb-free, 64-pin QFN, LQFP and TQFP packages. Pricing for the FT313H starts at $1.75 each/100,000. Development support is provided via the UMFT313EV evaluation board with a sales price of $75.85 each.
