Simplicity
Connection takes place through a simple attachment, providing a seamless plug-and-play connection between PCs, notebooks and peripheral devices, without the need for configuration.

Low-Power Consumption
The VIA Vectro VT6205 USB2.0 to 9-in-1 flash card reader controller features ultra low power consumption and advanced process technology, optimized for power sensitive applications and saving battery life in mobile systems.

Flexibility
Being highly interoperable with the widest range of flash media, the VIA Vectro VT6205 provides card vendors with the utmost flexibility to design versatile, ultra-compact flash card readers, enabling customers to read and transfer data from any of the nine flash card formats.


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.
