CY7C68013A-56PVXC Overview
A USB microcontroller is an application-specific microcontroller integrated with a USB controller and dedicated I/O. The EZ-USB FX2LP family combines an 8051-compatible processing core with high-speed USB 2.0 peripheral connectivity. Its programmable architecture allows designers to implement protocol-specific endpoints and move data between USB and external circuitry without relying on a conventional ROM-resident application program.
The verified product information identifies the device as ROMless and equipped with 16 KB of RAM. Infineon specifies 24 GPIOs for non-battery-powered designs, while distributor data identifies the 8051 architecture, USB 2.0 operation and a 56-BSSOP package measuring approximately 0.295 inches wide. These features support compact USB peripheral designs that require flexible endpoint and data-path behavior.
The FX2LP architecture is relevant to designs requiring USB high-speed data movement alongside parallel, serial or specialized peripheral interfaces. Exact endpoint count, transfer rates, oscillator options and electrical timing characteristics were not present in the supplied verification set and must be confirmed in the manufacturer documentation before design release. The part should be treated as a USB controller rather than a general-purpose host solution.
Typical applications include USB oscilloscope and logic-analyzer front ends, data loggers, test-and-measurement adapters, printer interfaces, storage bridges and industrial acquisition modules. For portable equipment, the device is specifically identified for non-battery-powered applications, so power budget and suspend behavior should be reviewed against the final system requirements.
A key design consideration is USB signal integrity. The SSOP footprint requires careful routing of the differential USB data pair, short return paths and a controlled ground plane. Firmware, external interface timing, clocking and power sequencing must be validated using the manufacturer reference documentation and the target USB host environment.
This page consolidates verified manufacturer and distributor information, explicitly identifies missing technical data and separates the target device from unsupported replacement claims. It is intended to accelerate component identification while preserving the need for datasheet-level verification.

Typical Applications
CY7C68013A-56PVXC is suitable for 7 applications: USB Data Acquisition, Test and Measurement Equipment, USB-to-Parallel Data Bridge, Industrial Communication Adapter, Storage and Peripheral Interface, Portable Instrument Connectivity, Custom USB Peripheral.
USB Data Acquisition
The CY7C68013A-56PVXC fits a USB data-acquisition peripheral because it combines an 8051 EZ-USB controller with USB 2.0 peripheral connectivity, 16 KB RAM and 24 GPIOs. The GPIOs can supervise control signals, status indicators and an external interface controller while USB carries measurement data to a host. The part is intended for non-battery-powered applications, making it suitable for bench or instrument designs with a stable 3 V to 3.6 V supply. Designers should confirm endpoint timing, transfer throughput and analog-interface requirements in the manufacturer documentation before finalizing the acquisition architecture.
Recommended
Test and Measurement Equipment
The EZ-USB FX2LP architecture is appropriate for USB-connected test equipment where the controller must coordinate external measurement hardware and stream results to a host. Its 8051 processing core and programmable USB behavior provide embedded control alongside the dedicated peripheral interfaces, while the 24 GPIOs can support front-panel, trigger and status signaling. The 56-pin SSOP package supports compact instrument designs, although fanout and signal-integrity constraints must be considered. The verified information does not state the exact USB transfer rate or endpoint count, so those values must be checked before sizing buffers or defining host timing.
Recommended
USB-to-Parallel Data Bridge
The CY7C68013A-56PVXC can serve as the USB endpoint in a bridge between a host computer and a parallel or specialized data subsystem. The 8051 core can manage protocol state and control sequencing, while the GPIO resources provide the required discrete interface signals when the external bus timing is compatible. Its 16 KB RAM provides a fixed internal working and buffering resource, but the designer must size endpoint memory and DMA behavior from the complete datasheet. USB trace routing, connector mechanics and ESD protection are as important as the controller choice for a reliable bridge product.
Recommended
Industrial Communication Adapter
The FX2LP USB controller is a strong candidate for an industrial communication adapter that presents a device-specific protocol to a USB host. Its application-specific architecture allows the firmware and external interface logic to define the adapter behavior, and the 24 GPIOs support status, direction and handshake signals around a peripheral bus. The target is explicitly identified for non-battery-powered systems, so a fixed industrial or USB-powered source is preferable. Verify electrical levels, isolation requirements, clocking and suspend behavior in the application-specific system before using the controller outside the verified reference conditions.
Recommended
Storage and Peripheral Interface
The CY7C68013A-56PVXC can be used in a USB peripheral that interfaces an embedded system with storage, control logic or another data-producing device. Its dedicated USB 2.0 controller handles the host-facing side, while the embedded core and GPIO resources supervise the storage or peripheral connection. The 3 V to 3.6 V operating range aligns with many 3.3 V systems, but power sequencing and signal-level compatibility still require verification. For storage designs, use manufacturer reference material to confirm buffer behavior, endpoint configuration and firmware timing rather than assuming generic USB transfer behavior.
Recommended
Portable Instrument Connectivity
Although Infineon identifies the CY7C68013A-56PVXC for non-battery-powered applications, it can support portable instruments when the product includes a stable USB or external supply. The controller provides USB connectivity for configuration and data exchange while the 8051 core handles device control and the 24 GPIOs support front-panel and status functions. The main engineering concern is system power: the final battery, regulator and suspend strategy must be evaluated together. Since the supplied data does not include a complete electrical timing or low-power table, validate current consumption and bus behavior in the target power architecture.
Recommended
Custom USB Peripheral
The CY7C68013A-56PVXC is intended for custom USB peripherals that need programmable behavior rather than a fixed host interface. Its application-specific 8051 EZ-USB architecture lets firmware define endpoint operation and coordinate external hardware through the available GPIO and peripheral resources. The 56-pin SSOP package makes the device relevant to compact products, but fine-pitch layout requires a disciplined USB return path and careful decoupling. Before manufacturing, verify the exact pin map, clock configuration, firmware loading method and host compatibility using the official Infineon documentation for the ordered suffix.

- Verified 24-GPIO configuration (vs CY7C68013A-56PVXE)
Design Notes
Route the USB differential pair as a controlled, impedance-matched pair with a continuous return path and minimal stubbing. Keep the connector, protection components and controller-side USB nodes arranged so transient and ESD currents return through the board ground structure. The supplied data confirms USB 2.0 peripheral functionality but does not provide trace-impedance or layout values, so use the manufacturer reference layout and the actual board stack-up for final geometry.
Design the power rails around the verified 3 V to 3.6 V supply range and confirm which portions of the USB peripheral are powered during attach, suspend and reset. Place local decoupling close to the controller supply pins and keep noisy switching or digital return currents away from the USB and analog reference paths. Absolute maximum ratings, current limits and sequencing requirements were not supplied and must be taken from the official datasheet.
The 56-pin SSOP requires fine-pitch escape routing and careful fanout from the USB transceiver and clock pins. Preserve uninterrupted ground-adjacent return paths where the package allows, avoid placing test pads that force impedance discontinuities, and confirm pin numbering against the official package drawing. Do not infer the pin map from distributor order suffixes; the verified data confirms the package but does not provide the complete pinout.
Compliance Information
The supplied manufacturer and distributor snippets do not state RoHS, REACH, AEC-Q100, lead-free, halogen-free or conflict-minerals status for this exact ordering suffix.
