Product details
Overview
CYUSB3017-BZXCT from Infineon Technologies (formerly Cypress Semiconductor) is a configurable SuperSpeed USB 3.2 Gen 1 peripheral controller with integrated ARM926EJ-S CPU, USB 3.2/2.0 PHYs, and General Configurable Interface supporting UVC/UAC protocols. It delivers up to 375 MBps data throughput, features 512 KB on-chip SRAM, and operates at 200 MHz core frequency for real-time video bridging in USB camera systems.
For engineers reviewing the CYUSB3017-BZXCT datasheet, CYUSB3017-BZXCT pinout, CYUSB3017-BZXCT application, or CYUSB3017-BZXCT equivalent, key selection criteria include UVC protocol support, 100-MHz parallel interface timing, 121-ball BGA package compatibility, low-power core-down mode (<60 µA), and re-enumeration capability for dynamic device identity switching.
Technical Context
The CYUSB3017-BZXCT implements a dual-mode USB stack compliant with USB 3.2 Gen 1 (5 Gbps) and USB 2.0, with hardware-accelerated DMA routing between the General Configurable Interface and USB endpoints. Its ARM926EJ-S core executes firmware that configures UVC descriptors, video format negotiation, and camera terminal controls without host-side driver modification.
It supports slave FIFO and parallel image sensor interfaces up to 100 MHz with 8-/16-/24-/32-bit bus widths, and integrates independent power domains: 1.2 V core, 1.8–3.3 V SPI I/O, and 1.2–3.3 V I²C I/O - enabling mixed-voltage system integration with FPGAs, HDMI receivers, and DDR3 frame buffers.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar USB video bridge applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| CYUSB3014-BZXCT | UVC-only variant without UAC support; identical pinout and firmware architecture | Lacks audio endpoint capability; suitable only for video-only systems | Select when audio streaming is unnecessary and BOM cost reduction is prioritized |
| CX3-EBZ | MIPI CSI-2 to USB 3.0 bridge; no ARM CPU or configurable GPIF; fixed-function hardware | Requires MIPI sensor input; no firmware customization or FPGA co-processing capability | Select for MIPI-native sensors where minimal firmware development and deterministic latency are required |
Compared with CYUSB3017-BZXCT, CYUSB3014-BZXCT removes UAC functionality but retains full UVC configurability and re-enumeration, while CX3-EBZ trades firmware flexibility for lower latency and simpler design - making CYUSB3017-BZXCT optimal for hybrid video+audio+custom logic applications.

FAQ
Does CYUSB3017-BZXCT require external RAM for UVC operation?
No. The device integrates 512 KB of on-chip SRAM sufficient to store UVC descriptors, firmware, DMA buffers, and frame metadata. External DDR3 is optional and used only for large frame buffers in 4K applications - not required for basic UVC streaming at 1080p.
Can CYUSB3017-BZXCT be configured to operate without re-enumeration?
Yes. The device supports static configuration mode where pre-programmed descriptors and firmware are loaded from SPI flash at power-up, bypassing the two-step re-enumeration. This mode is used in production systems requiring deterministic USB identity and faster plug-in response.
What clock sources are supported for the General Configurable Interface?
CYUSB3017-BZXCT accepts externally generated PCLK up to 100 MHz, or derives it from internal PLL using crystal inputs of 19.2, 26, 38.4, or 52 MHz. The 19.2-MHz crystal option is commonly used to minimize jitter in video timing-critical applications.
Is the CYUSB3017-BZXCT pin-compatible with CYUSB3015 or CYUSB3016?
Yes. All three variants (CYUSB3015, CYUSB3016, CYUSB3017) share identical 121-ball BGA package and pinout. Firmware and hardware design are interchangeable; differentiation is purely functional (UVC/UAC vs. vendor class) and enabled via configuration utility or SPI flash content.
