I/O controllers

23 March 2016 Analogue, Mixed Signal, LSI

Microchip announced the new SCH322X family of feature-rich and flexible I/O controllers customised to the needs of industrial and embedded computing designers.

Available in both commercial and industrial operating temperature versions, each product in the family contains a different feature set, combining serial ports, parallel port, and PS/2 with flexible GPIO capability and temperature and voltage monitoring. This product family is offered in area-efficient BGA packages to enable the most compact board designs.

Designed to operate with the x86 architecture, the SCH322X family includes six devices tailored for different applications. A varying number of serial ports, combined with hardware monitoring, and with and without keyboard controller functionality, are some examples of the choices available.

The SCH3221, SCH3222, SCH3223, SCH3224, SCH3226 and SCH3227 are available in 64-WFBGA (6 x 6 mm), 84-WFBGA (7 x 7 mm), 100-WFBGA (8 x 8 mm) and 144-WFBGA (9 x 9 mm) packages.
