Product details
Overview
USB2640I-HZH-02 from Microchip Technology is a USB 2.0 Hi-Speed hub IC with integrated flash media controller supporting SD 2.0, MMC 4.2, Memory Stick 1.43/Pro/HG/Duo, and xD-Picture Card 1.2. It delivers average sustained transfer rates exceeding 35 MB/s, features an 8051 8-bit microprocessor (60 MHz single-cycle), 64 KB on-chip ROM, 9 KB RAM, and operates across -40°C to +85°C industrial temperature range.
For engineers reviewing the USB2640I-HZH-02 datasheet, USB2640I-HZH-02 pinout, USB2640I-HZH-02 application, or USB2640I-HZH-02 equivalent, key selection considerations include its triple-port architecture (1 internal flash port + 2 exposed downstream USB ports), multiplexed card interface for combo sockets, PortSwap/PortMap/PHYBoost programmability, and support for external I²C/SPI configuration and USB-based EEPROM updates.
Technical Context
The USB2640I-HZH-02 integrates a transaction translator (TT) enabling concurrent Low-Speed and Full-Speed peripheral operation on all enabled downstream ports, while maintaining Hi-Speed upstream connectivity. Its hardware-controlled data flow architecture handles self-mapped flash media without host CPU intervention.
It employs a dedicated 8051 core with 64 KB ROM and 9 KB RAM to execute hub management and flash media protocol stacks-including SD/MMC command parsing, MS bus state control, and xD ALE/CLE timing-while supporting optional external firmware via SPI (30/60 MHz, single/dual bit, Mode 0/3).
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar USB hub + flash media controller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| USB2641I-HZH-02 | Omits xD-Picture Card interface; identical pinout, firmware, and SD/MMC/MS support | Not suitable where xD card compatibility is required; otherwise drop-in replacement | Select USB2641I-HZH-02 when xD support is unnecessary - reduces licensing overhead and simplifies qualification |
| GL852G-UF | USB 2.0 hub only (no integrated flash controller); requires external SD/MS controller and glue logic | Higher BOM cost and PCB area; lacks hardware-accelerated flash protocol handling and >35 MB/s throughput | Choose GL852G-UF only if flash media support is implemented separately - USB2640I-HZH-02 consolidates functionality and improves system-level performance |
Compared with USB2641I-HZH-02, USB2640I-HZH-02 adds xD-Picture Card 1.2 support and associated licensing path; compared with GL852G-UF, it integrates flash media control, eliminating external controllers, reducing latency, and enabling higher sustained throughput through hardware-managed data flow.

FAQ
What flash media formats does the USB2640I-HZH-02 support?
The USB2640I-HZH-02 supports Secure Digital 2.0 (including HC and HS variants), MultiMediaCard 4.2 (with streaming mode), Memory Stick 1.43, Memory Stick Pro 1.02, Memory Stick Pro-HG 1.01, Memory Stick Duo 1.10, and xD-Picture Card 1.2. All are accessed via a shared multiplexed pin interface requiring a combo socket. Support for xD-Picture Card requires a license from the xD-Picture Card License Office.
Does the USB2640I-HZH-02 require an external crystal or clock source?
No, the USB2640I-HZH-02 includes an on-board 24 MHz crystal driver circuit and can operate with a standard 24 MHz crystal connected between XTAL1 and XTAL2. Alternatively, it accepts an external 24 MHz 1.8 V clock applied to XTAL1 (CLKIN) with a resistor divider, allowing clock source flexibility without adding discrete oscillators.
How is configuration handled for the USB2640I-HZH-02?
Configuration for the USB2640I-HZH-02 is performed via external I²C EEPROM or SPI Flash, supporting vendor ID, product ID, language ID, serial number, and LED blink parameters. The device also enables field updates of this configuration data via USB - no hardware rework or programming fixtures required after deployment.
What is the role of the CRD_PWR pin on the USB2640I-HZH-02?
The CRD_PWR pin on the USB2640I-HZH-02 provides 3.3 V power (up to 200 mA) to the multiplexed flash media slot. It is mandatory for powering xD-Picture Card devices to meet voltage specification requirements. When not used for card power, CRD_PWR functions as a general-purpose I/O. Its behavior is controlled by bits 0–3 of Register A5h.
Can the USB2640I-HZH-02 operate in self-powered or bus-powered modes?
Yes, the USB2640I-HZH-02 supports both bus-powered and self-powered configurations. In bus-powered mode, it draws power from the upstream USB VBUS; in self-powered mode, it uses an external 3.3 V supply. Configuration is selectable via firmware settings, and port power control (individual or ganged) is fully programmable to match the target system's power architecture.
