Description

Certified by the USB Implementers Forum for Hi-Speed Low Power USB2.0 operation, the VIA Vectro VT6205 is the first USB2.0 to 9-in-1 flash card reader controller to be granted this globally recognized certification.

The VIA Vectro VT6205 transfers data at speeds of up to 480Mbps, while maintaining very low operating power consumption of less than 100mA and configuration power of only 60mA. Through its low power architecture and advanced CMOS 0.22µm process technology, VIA has minimized the power consumption of the VIA Vectro VT6205 by more than 80% of the maximum allowable power for USB peripherals, making it the ideal solution for flash card readers to be used with PCs and mobile systems, ensuring reliability in power sensitive applications and saving battery life of notebooks.

Compliant with USB Specification Revision 2.0 and with the UTMI (USB2.0 Transceiver Macrocell Interface) Specification, the VIA Vectro VT6205 utilizes the exceptional bandwidth of USB2.0 to support a wide range of flash media use with digital devices such as digital cameras, MP3 players and PDA's.

The VIA Vectro VT6205 allows for dynamic attach and re-attach to the USB bus to allow hot-swap of devices. The External Serial (EEPROM) Interface enables memory retention and supports serial number, vendor number, product ID and miscellaneous storage.

The VIA Vectro VT6205 is widely supported by most of the existing operating systems, including Microsoft® Windows® XP, Windows 2000, Windows ME, Windows 98, Windows 98SE, Mac OS 9.x, Mac OS X, and the Linux kernel 2.4.0 and future versions.


VIA Vectro VT6205A USB2.0 to 9-in-1 Flash Card Reader Controller

The VIA Vectro VT6205A is a specialized version of the VIA Vectro VT6205 designed with specific end-user applications in mind.

The VIA Vectro VT6205A supports nine flash media formats as well as ATA/ATAPI interface, allowing customers flexibility in designing USB2.0-enabled portable storage devices featuring compatibility with any of the nine flash media formats, while offering support for 3.5inch and 2.5inch HDD or optical storage systems.

In addition, the VIA Vectro VT6205A features similar characteristics in high data transfer rates and ultra-low power consumption as that of the VIA Vectro VT6205.
