Silicon Labs CP21xx Smart Interface Connectivity Bridges

The Silicon Labs CP2104, CP2105, CP2110, and CP2112 connectivity bridges are the latest additions to Silicon Labs’ industry-leading Smart Interface family. The Silicon Labs CP21xx family of devices extends the Smart Interface portfolio to include cost-sensitive USB to UART (CP2104), USB to Dual UART (CP2105), USB HID (Human Interface Design) Class USB to UART (CP2110), and USB HID Class to SMBUS / I²C bridge (CP2112) solutions. Common to the Silicon Labs CP2104, CP2105, CP2110, and CP2112 connectivity bridges are royalty-free software driver suites, crystal-less operation, in-system programming memory, and small 4 mm x 4 mm packages that in combination reduce cost, simplify design, and shorten development time. Example applications include USB to RS-232 converters, USB to Dual RS-232 converters, upgrades of legacy RS-232 devices, and industrial connectivity devices. CP21xxEK evaluation kits allow for complete evaluation and customization of these devices.
