USB requires synchronization
between four major technology
suppliers: operating system,
UHCI/OHCI interfaces, hub
controllers, and peripheral
devices. In a traditional hard-
ware configuration, ensuring
that a peripheral device will
work with every combination of
these technologies is a time-
consuming and expensive task.

Using the EZ-USB chip’s “soft”
configuration, the peripheral
developer can easily devise
workarounds or accommodate
dynamic changes. At the same
time, there is minimum risk to
design implementation.

software device configurability
provides easy field updates, last

RAM Architecture
With an enhanced 8051 core
combined with 4 or 8 Kbytes of
SRAM in a single chip, users have a
complete solution. The 8051’s
firmware can be stored in the hard
disk (along with the driver) and
downloaded into the peripheral
during its initialization. That
makes updates as easy as updating
any other PC software.
