Interface
TC65 supports a USB 2.0 Full Speed (12Mbit/s) device interface. The USB port has different
functions depending on whether or not Java is running. Under Java, the lines may be used
for debugging purposes (see [6] for further detail). If Java is not used, the USB interface is
available as a command and data interface and for downloading firmware.
The USB I/O-pins are capable of driving the signal at min 3.0V. They are 5V I/O compliant.
To properly connect the module’s USB interface to the host a USB 2.0 compatible connector
is required. Furthermore, the USB modem driver delivered with TC65 must be installed as
described below.
The USB host is responsible for supplying, across the VUSB_IN line, power to the module’s
USB interface, but not to other TC65 interfaces. This is because TC65 is designed as a self-
powered device compliant with the “Universal Serial Bus Specification Revision 2.0”
