AU9226 Datasheet, PDF (7/22 Pages) List of Unclassifed Manufacturers – USB KVM Controller

1. Introduction
1.1 Description
AU9226 is a highly integrated single chip USB KVM controller offering users the
possibility of sharing keyboard, mouse and monitor among up to two PCs. Not like
traditional PS2 KVM devices, AU9226 uses USB as its upstream and downstream
interface to support its driver-free and plug-n-play features, which allow users to easily
install and use the KVM.
Typical application of AU9226 is under an environment, in which only one set of
monitor, keyboard and mouse is available. Applying such kind of devices in a
computing environment will not only result in a centralized control, but also reduce the
power and space consumption.
