USB224x
Ultra Fast USB 2.0 Multi-Format, SD/MMC,
and MS Flash Media Controllers
PRODUCT FEATURES
General Description
The SMSC USB224x is a USB 2.0 compliant, Hi-Speed
bulk only
1
mass storage class peripheral controller intended
for reading and writing to popular flash media from the xD-
Picture Card
TM

, Memory Stick
®
(MS), Secure Digital
(SD), and MultiMediaCard
TM
(MMC) families.
The SMSC USB224x is a fully integrated, single chip
solution capable of ultra high performance operation.
Average sustained transfer rates exceeding 35 MB/s are
possible if the media and host can support those rates. The
USB2244/44i includes provisions to read/write secure
media formats.
