Infineon Technologies AG is introducing the EZ-USB™ FX2G3, a next-generation USB 2.0 peripheral controller designed to deliver superior performance, robust security, and advanced power efficiency for USB devices. This new controller builds on the trusted EZ-USB™ FX2LP platform and offers a highly adaptable solution for industries requiring seamless and secure connectivity.
 
The demand for efficient and secure data transfer is driving innovation across industries, and USB technology plays a critical role in enabling this connectivity. EZ-USB FX2G3 controllers include Serial Communication Blocks (SCB), a crypto engine for enhanced security, and a high-bandwidth data subsystem that facilitates DMA data transfers from LVCMOS input to USB output at speeds up to 480 Mbps, suitable for USB Hi-Speed-based host systems. A 1024 KB SRAM is integrated within the high-bandwidth data subsystem to provide ample buffering for data.
 
EZ-USB FX2G3’s versatility enables it to seamlessly integrate into a variety of industries. In biometric systems, for example, the FX2G3 powers secure and fast fingerprint recognition or facial authentication, providing consumers with a convenient and secure way to access their devices. In medical and healthcare devices, the controller drives portable diagnostic tools, imaging systems, and patient monitoring, enabling healthcare professionals to provide more effective and efficient care. In industrial systems, the controller facilitates real-time data collection and communication in robotics and automation systems, improving productivity and efficiency. In consumer electronics, the controller’s speed and efficiency enhance gaming devices, audio peripherals, and other USB accessories, providing consumers with a more enjoyable and immersive experience. In robotics, EZ-USB FX2G3 supports sensor integration and advanced control, delivering high responsiveness in both industrial and consumer designs.
