FAQ

Question:What is the difference between this product and other USB Blasters on the market?

 Answer:

At present, there are basically three types of USB Blaster download cable solutions on the market:

【Option 1】FT245BL/FT245R + CPLD:

This solution is the closest to the original. When the CPLD clock is 24MHz, the download line speed can reach the original performance.
【Option 2】CY7C68013A:

The biggest advantage of this solution is that the cost has dropped a lot, and the disadvantage is the speed. Although the 68013 is a high-speed USB chip, its internal MCU can only work up to 12MIPS, and the speed is almost 1/4 of the original solution.
【Option 3】C8051F320/1:

The speed is equivalent to 1/2 of the original solution, and the cost is slightly lower than that of the CY7C68013A solution.
Our product uses option 1.
