Query about USB2.0 Host controller by TI

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TUSB7320, TUSB1210
Hi,
I am working on a project in which I have to drive to one of CCD camera named ATIK314L+ which is supported with Cypress FX2 USB drivers. Also, It provided with High speed USB interface.

I find "Tiva™ ARM® C Series Micro controllers" supports for USB host.

So, I want to know whether it is possible to program Tiva™ ARM® C Series Micro controllers so that it will drive camera ATIK314L+ as a USB host.
Or any other option?
Thanks & Regards,
Sachin Panchal.
  • Sachinkumar,

    It is likely possible to be able to interface the two, but it would probably be a significant time investment. Is there good documentation on what and how the camera communicates over USB?

  • Hi,

    Yes, We have provided with API from camera manufacture that is attached here.

    We have checked camera hardware that includes "EZ-USB® FX2LP™ USB Microcontroller High-Speed USB Peripheral Controller" by cypress.

    So, we are also thinking of "TUSB7320 USB 3.0 xHCI HOST CONTROLLER" as it is High speed host controller.

    And Our main requirement of project is as mentioned that to program host controller board such that it will drive Camera (or EZ-USB® FX2LP™ USB Microcontroller) with some default setting after removing PC connection.

    Thanks & Regards,

    Sachin Panchal

  • Sachinkumar,

    I apologize that I did not mentally connect "high speed" in the forum post body with the "USB 2.0" in the topic title. The Tiva parts do not support USB 2.0 High Speed mode (480 Mbps). The camera would have to connect at the much slow USB Full Speed (12 Mbps).

    Also, if you want to use the TUSB3720, you will need a processor that has a PCI peripheral, which the Tiva parts do not. I don't know if the price or performance would be a good fit, but the Sitara processors have ULPI interfaces for USB 2.0 PHYs like the TUSB1210.
