NXP - The widest choice in embedded USB technology
Introduction
Fast, reliable, easy-to-use, and able to draw power without a separate AC connection, the Universal Serial Bus (USB) is the world's most popular connector technology.
Today, it appears in embedded applications of all kinds.
NXP leads the market in USB-equipped ARM MCUs:
- More than 50 options for ARM7, ARM9, and Cortex-M3 technologies (see comparison table and products below)
- LPC3130 is the industry;s lowest-cost ARM9 with High-Speed USB 2.0 OTG (with on-chip PHY)
- Certified USB operation
- Special USB features and comprehensive software support
NXP Advantage
Lowest Price
The LPC3130 is the industry's lowest-cost ARM9 with High-Speed USB 2.0 OTG (with on-chip PHY).
It is priced at $2.80 each in 10K quantities.
Complete, Fully-Certified USB Operation
 |
 |
The NXP portfolio includes the latest USB technologies, including full- and high-speed USB 2.0 device, host, and On-The-Go (OTG) functions.
And, unlike most other vendors, NXP supports all four transfer types: control, interrupt, bulk, and, in particular, isochronous, which is required for streaming audio.
NXP is a leading member of the USB-IF, the organization that maintains the USB specifications and verifies USB compliance.
NXP's USB-equipped ARM MCUs are submitted for certification, so designers can be certain that their systems will deliver the best in reliability and plug-and-play operation.
As of the end of 2008, most of our USB 2.0-based processors with host and device functions have been certified; the OTG function is in process.
A complete list of compliant products appears on the USB-IF web site, www.usb.org.
Special USB Features
NXP has been a leading supplier of standalone USB ICs and has developed special features that enhance the robust USB architecture.
We now integrate these same features into our ARM MCUs, providing designers with a range of features that improve overall performance.
NXP's special USB features include the following:
- Dedicated DMA lets the USB interface operate with minimal CPU intervention.
- SoftConnect™ uses software to determine when a USB device will connect to the bus.
- GoodLink™ uses an LED to indicate that a USB device has been enumerated and configured on the bus. (To save power, the LED is turned off during suspend.)
- Double-buffering maximizes throughput on bulk and isochronous endpoints.
- Integrated transceivers minimize the number of external components.
- Multiple USB ports let devices be configured as hosts, devices, or both.
- USB data buffer provides flexible configuration of endpoint FIFO sizes.
Extensive Software Support
In addition to NXP's own complimentary USB packages, NXP partners with leading software companies to provide state-of-the-art USB firmware.
