USB2250/50i/51/51i
Ultra Fast USB 2.0 Multi-Slot Flash Media Controller
General Description
The Microchip USB2250/50i/51/51i is a USB 2.0 com-
pliant, Hi-Speed mass storage class peripheral control-
ler intended for reading and writing to more than 24
popular flash media formats from the CompactFlash^®
(CF), SmartMedia^TM (SM), xD-Picture Card^TM (xD)¹,
Memory Stick^® (MS), Secure Digital (SD), and MultiMe-
diaCard^TM (MMC) families.
The USB2250/50i/51/51i is a fully integrated, single
chip solution capable of ultra high performance opera-
tion. Average sustained transfer rates exceeding 35
MB/s are possible if the media and host can support
those rates.
Highlights
