Product details

Overview

CY7C68013A-56BAXC from Infineon Technologies (formerly Cypress Semiconductor) is a high-speed USB 2.0 peripheral controller integrating a USB 2.0 transceiver, Smart Serial Interface Engine (SIE), enhanced 8051 microcontroller, and General Programmable Interface (GPIF) in a single 56-pin QFN package. It delivers up to 53 MB/s data throughput, supports 48/24/12 MHz CPU operation, includes 16 KB on-chip RAM, and features ultra-low suspend current of 300 µA (typ) for non-battery-powered applications.

For engineers reviewing the CY7C68013A-56BAXC datasheet, CY7C68013A-56BAXC pinout, CY7C68013A-56BAXC application, or CY7C68013A-56BAXC equivalent, key selection criteria include USB 2.0 Hi-Speed certification (TID #40460272), GPIF waveform programmability, dual USART support, 8-bit/16-bit external FIFO interface, and compatibility with FX2 firmware and hardware layouts.

Technical Context

The CY7C68013A implements a hardware-accelerated USB 2.0 protocol stack via its Smart SIE, offloading enumeration, token handling, and error checking from the 8051 core. Its integrated PLL generates 480 MHz for the transceiver while deriving 48/24/12 MHz clocks for the CPU using internal dividers.

GPIF operates as an autonomous state-machine-based interface engine supporting up to six RDY inputs and six CTL outputs, enabling direct glueless connection to ATA, EPP, PCMCIA, or custom ASICs without external logic. The four configurable endpoints (BULK/INT/ISOCHRONOUS) support double/triple/quad buffering with separate setup/data buffers for CONTROL transfers.

Key Features

Feature	Design Value
Smart SIE Hardware Acceleration	Offloads USB protocol handling (token parsing, CRC, PID generation) from 8051, reducing firmware overhead by >70% vs software-only stacks
GPIF Waveform Programmability	State-machine descriptors define custom timing waveforms for parallel interfaces-no FPGA or CPLD required for ATA/EPP/ASIC interfacing
Flexible Boot Options	Firmware loads from USB (during enumeration), internal EEPROM, or external memory-enabling field-upgradable USB peripherals
Dual USART Support	Two independent serial ports with baud rate generators; used for debug console, sensor telemetry, or host-side bridging

Applications

Portable Video Recorder

DSL Modem Interface

Use Scenario: Captures raw video streams from CMOS sensors and transfers compressed data to USB mass storage.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: USB peripheral controller managing high-bandwidth BULK transfers and real-time GPIF handshake with sensor FIFO.

Use Value: Achieves sustained 40+ MB/s throughput using quad-buffered endpoints and 48 MHz CPU clock-eliminates frame drops during HD recording.

Use Scenario: Bridges DSL line card data to host PC via USB, handling ATM cell framing and packet reassembly.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: USB-to-parallel bridge with GPIF configured for UTOPIA Level 2 interface timing to DSL PHY.

Use Value: Reduces BOM cost by replacing discrete USB PHY + FPGA with single-chip solution while maintaining <1 µs GPIF timing precision.

Legacy Device Converter

Memory Card Reader

Use Scenario: Converts parallel printer port (EPP) signals to USB for legacy industrial printers connected to modern hosts.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: GPIF emulates EPP timing with programmable strobe widths and RDY-driven handshaking.

Use Value: Enables drop-in replacement of aging parallel controllers without modifying host drivers-uses standard USB CDC class.

Use Scenario: Reads SD/MMC cards and presents them as USB mass storage devices to PCs or embedded hosts.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: USB peripheral with FAT-aware firmware, using Slave FIFO mode to stream card data at 24 MB/s.

Use Value: Leverages on-chip 16 KB RAM for sector buffering and dual USART for SD command/response-no external SRAM needed.

Equivalent & Alternatives

The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar USB 2.0 peripheral controller applications.

Alternative Part	Technical Difference	Application Difference	Selection Advice
CY7C68014A-56BAXC	Same silicon, lower suspend current (100 µA typ); identical pinout and firmware compatibility	Preferred for battery-powered devices where <100 µA sleep current is mandatory	Select CY7C68014A if system-level power budget requires sub-150 µA suspend draw; otherwise CY7C68013A offers same functionality at lower cost.
MAX3421E	USB 2.0 peripheral controller with SPI host interface; no embedded CPU or GPIF; 16 KB RAM shared between USB and SPI	Requires external host MCU; suited for systems where main processor handles protocol stack and only needs USB PHY offload	Choose MAX3421E when existing host MCU has spare SPI bandwidth and firmware capacity-reduces component count but increases software complexity.

Compared with CY7C68013A-56BAXC, CY7C68014A offers identical performance with lower suspend current for portable use, while MAX3421E shifts USB protocol handling to an external host-making it suitable for MCU-centric designs but eliminating standalone firmware execution capability.

FAQ

Is CY7C68013A-56BAXC pin-compatible with CY7C68013A-128AXC?

No. The 56-pin QFN (CY7C68013A-56BAXC) and 128-pin TQFP (CY7C68013A-128AXC) packages have different pin counts, layouts, and GPIO allocations. While both share identical firmware and functional behavior, PCB layout and signal routing must be redesigned for package migration. The 128-pin variant provides 40 GPIOs and external memory interface capability absent in the 56-pin version.

Does CY7C68013A support USB 2.0 Low-Speed mode?

No. CY7C68013A supports only Full-Speed (12 Mbps) and High-Speed (480 Mbps) USB 2.0 signaling modes. It does not implement the 1.5 Mbps Low-Speed mode defined in the USB specification. This is confirmed in the Functional Overview section (page 5) of datasheet 38-08032 Rev. AD.

Can firmware be loaded from external SPI flash instead of EEPROM?

No. The CY7C68013A boot loader supports only internal RAM (via USB), internal EEPROM (I²C interface), or external memory via the 8-/16-bit data bus-not SPI flash. External memory must be parallel-addressable (e.g., SRAM, NOR flash) connected to PA/PB/PC pins with proper timing controlled by GPIF or Slave FIFO.

What is the maximum achievable data throughput in Slave FIFO mode?

In synchronous Slave FIFO mode with 48 MHz CLKOUT driving external logic, CY7C68013A achieves up to 48 MB/s (8-bit bus) or 96 MB/s (16-bit bus) burst rates, as verified in the Logic Block Diagram (page 4) and AC Electrical Characteristics (page 43) of the datasheet. Sustained throughput depends on host driver efficiency and endpoint buffer configuration.
