Product details
Overview
CY7C68014A-56PVXC from Infineon Technologies (formerly Cypress Semiconductor) is a USB 2.0 high-speed peripheral controller integrating an enhanced 8051 microprocessor, USB 2.0 transceiver, smart serial interface engine (SIE), 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 draws only 100 µA typical in suspend mode-enabling compact, bus-powered USB devices such as portable video recorders and memory card readers.
For engineers reviewing the CY7C68014A-56PVXC datasheet, CY7C68014A-56PVXC pinout, CY7C68014A-56PVXC application, or CY7C68014A-56PVXC equivalent, key selection criteria include GPIF waveform configurability, dual USART support, 8-/16-bit external FIFO interface timing, suspend current compliance, and USB 2.0 Hi-Speed certification (TID #40460272).
Technical Context
The CY7C68014A implements a hardware-accelerated USB 2.0 stack via its Smart SIE, offloading protocol handling from the 8051 core and enabling deterministic endpoint management for BULK, INTERRUPT, and ISOCHRONOUS transfers. Its GPIF operates independently of the CPU, using programmable waveform descriptors to generate precise control and strobe signals synchronized to external clocks or asynchronous RDY/CTL handshaking.
It supports four configurable endpoints with double/triple/quad buffering, plus one additional 64-byte BULK/INTERRUPT endpoint. The integrated I²C controller runs at nominal 100/400 kHz (measured ~85/300 kHz), and the 8051 executes instructions at four clocks per cycle with two data pointers and expanded interrupt vectors.

Applications
| Portable Video Recorder | Memory Card Reader |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Captures HD video from CMOS sensor and streams over USB 2.0 to host PC or embedded storage. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: USB peripheral controller managing isochronous IN transfers, GPIF synchronizing to sensor pixel clock, and dual USART handling metadata and control commands. Use Value: Achieves sustained 40+ MB/s transfer using quad-buffered BULK endpoints and 48-MHz CPU clock-eliminating frame drops during recording. |
Use Scenario: Reads/writes SD/microSD cards via SPI or parallel interface and presents them as USB mass storage devices. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Acts as bridge between SD card controller and USB host; uses GPIF to emulate ATA timing and internal RAM for sector buffering. Use Value: Enables UHS-I SD card compatibility with <10 µs command latency via programmable GPIF strobes-reducing host-level driver complexity. |
| DSL Modem Management | Legacy Device Converter |
|
Use Scenario: Provides USB interface for legacy DSL modem diagnostics, firmware updates, and status monitoring in residential gateways. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: USB peripheral handling vendor-specific control requests and bulk data transfers; I²C manages onboard temperature/voltage sensors. Use Value: Uses suspend current of 100 µA to meet Energy Star standby power limits while maintaining USB enumeration readiness. |
Use Scenario: Converts parallel printer port (LPT) or RS-232 serial signals to USB for modern OS compatibility in industrial test equipment. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Implements custom GPIF waveforms to replicate Centronics handshaking or RS-232 framing; 8051 handles protocol translation. Use Value: Eliminates need for external level shifters or FPGA glue logic-reducing BOM cost by $1.20/unit in volume production. |
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| CY7C68013A-56PVXC | Same FX2LP family; 300 µA typical suspend current; no VBUS sensing; identical pinout and firmware compatibility | Better suited for AC-powered systems where lower active power is prioritized over ultra-low suspend draw | Select when design does not require battery operation and benefits from identical footprint with higher noise margin on VBUS detection |
| SL811HS | USB 2.0 OTG controller with host/peripheral dual-role; no integrated 8051; requires external microcontroller | Enables host-initiated transfers (e.g., USB flash drive access) but increases system complexity and component count | Choose only if bidirectional USB role switching is mandatory and external MCU resources are available for protocol stack implementation |
Compared with CY7C68014A-56PVXC, CY7C68013A-56PVXC trades 200 µA higher suspend current for identical performance in active mode and broader voltage tolerance, while SL811HS shifts architectural responsibility to an external MCU-increasing firmware development effort but enabling OTG functionality.

FAQ
Does CY7C68014A-56PVXC support USB 2.0 Hi-Speed enumeration without external components?
Yes. The device integrates a fully compliant USB 2.0 transceiver with internal 1.5-kΩ pull-up resistor on D+, enabling Hi-Speed enumeration directly from reset. No external resistors, capacitors, or magnetics are required for basic USB connectivity-only a standard USB Type-A/B receptacle and PCB routing meeting USB 2.0 impedance rules.
Can the GPIF interface be configured for asynchronous 16-bit memory-mapped access?
Yes. GPIF supports asynchronous 16-bit slave FIFO mode with separate RDY0–RDY5 inputs and CTL0–CTL5 outputs. Waveform descriptors define setup/hold times, strobe widths, and handshaking sequences-allowing direct connection to SRAM, NOR flash, or FPGA interfaces without glue logic or wait-state insertion.
What is the maximum achievable data throughput using BULK endpoints?
Measured sustained throughput reaches 53 MB/s using quad-buffered 512-byte BULK IN endpoints at 48-MHz CPU clock and Hi-Speed USB. This matches the theoretical limit of USB 2.0's 480 Mbps physical layer after protocol overhead, confirmed in Cypress AN4053 and CY4661 reference design testing.
Is firmware upgrade over USB supported in the default boot configuration?
Yes. The device supports USB upload/download of firmware into internal RAM via vendor-specific requests. Cypress-provided tools like CyConsole and EZ-USB FX2LP Development Kit enable field updates without JTAG or external programmer-using only the USB interface and standard HID-class host drivers.
