Re: [Fx2lib-devel] cheap fx2 hardware?

Hi, Tim,

Thanks for the info. I already have the ezusb/fx in the keyspan serial adapter for full speed stuff.

The nice thing about the fx2 is its speed. I was able to keep up with a high speed/ high bandwidth iso stream which sends/receives 3 1024 byte packets in a microframe  (24Mbyte per second iso). It also was able to transfer bulk at 45Mbytes/sec - limited by the host speed - it issued no NAKs.  Also the downloadability of the ram based fx2 makes it a natural for a test type of device. Another nice feature is it can be forced into full speed, for even more flexibility in testing.

Regards, Steve

These are AVR and PIC boards not fx2 but the AVR has more memory then the Cypress..  The only disadvantage is high speed USB.
