| Overview
The development kit(CYUSB3KIT-001CYUSB3KIT-001) for the EZ-USB
The Cypress EZ-USB
USB 3.0 provides a 5 Gbps link that supports uncompressed HD video transfer and enables applications such as DSC, DVC, webcams, security cameras, machine vision, medical imaging, and surveillance equipment. EZ-USB FX3 seamlessly connects to any HD image sensor and transmits uncompressed video traffic through a USB 3.0 port. With more and more application such as printers and scanners demanding for higher resolutions images to be processed at a faster pace, increasing bandwidth requirement is now paramount. EZ-USB FX3 provides a solution that is both fast and flexible to meet these needs.
Key Applications: Industrial Cameras, Machine Vision, Scanners (High-end business, fingerprint, palm, etc.), Printers, Tablet PCs, Gaming Consoles, Digital Video Cameras, Digital SLR, 3D Cameras, Medical Imaging Devices, Traffic and Security Cameras, Video IP Phones, Microscopy, Instrumentation and Measurement | |||||||||||

Development Tools
GPIF
II Designer
The GPIF II Designer is a graphical software that allows designers to configure the GPIF II interface of the EZ-USB FX3 USB 3.0 Device Controller.
The tool allows users the ability to select from one of five Cypress supplied interfaces, or choose to create their own GPIF II interface from scratch. Cypress has supplied industry standard interfaces such as Asynchonous and Synchronous Slave FIFO, Asynchronous and Synchronous SRAM, and Asynchronous SRAM. Designers who already have one of these pre-defined interfaces in their system can simply select the interface of choice, choose from a set of standard parameters such as bus width (x8, 16, x32) endianess, clock settings, and compile the interface. The tool has a streamlined three step GPIF interface development process for users who need a customized interface. Users are able to first select their pin configuration and standard parameters. Secondly, they can design a virtual state machine using configurable actions. Finally, users can view output timing to verify that it matches the expected timing. Once the three step process is complete, the interface can be compiled and integrated with FX3.
EZ-USB FX3
Cypress EZ-USB
FX3 is the next-generation SuperSpeed USB 3.0 peripheral controller that enables developers to add USB 3.0 device functionality to any system.
EZ-USB FX3 has a fully configurable, General Programmable Interface (GPIF II) that can interface with any processor, ASIC, image sensor, or FPGA. GPIF II is an enhanced version of the original GPIF in FX2LP, Cypress’s flagship USB 2.0 product. It provides easy and glue-less connectivity to popular industry interfaces such as synchronous Slave FIFO, asynchronous SRAM, asynchronous and synchronous Address Data Multiplexed interface, and Compact Flash. Additionally, users can define their own proprietary interfaces using the Cypress’s GPIF II Designer Tool. USB 3.0 provides a 5 Gbps link that supports uncompressed HD video transfer and enables applications such as DSC, DVC, webcams, security cameras, machine vision, medical imaging, and surveillance equipment. EZ-USB FX3 seamlessly connects to any HD image sensor and transmits uncompressed video traffic through a USB 3.0 port.
