Connecting sensors, service interfaces, test and evaluation circuits and a lot more<br />
applications can be easily answered with the IOW24-DG <strong>I2C</strong> dongle.<br />
The <strong>I2C</strong> master interface operates at 100 kHz and allows a throughput of up to<br />
750 bytes/s. Handshaking via clock stretching is supported as well as a programmable<br />
timeout to prevent the dongle from hanging due to misbehaving slaves.<br />
A special mode to talk to Sensirion humidity sensors is available too.<br />
The IOW24-DG dongle is available at Euro 25 (excl. VAT) and is shipped as a set<br />
consisting of the assembled and tested PCB, a four wire cable and two part<br />
dongle case. The cable can be soldered to the dongle PCB, allowing flexible pinout<br />
to fit the customers application. 5 V and 3.3 V are also available to power<br />
small external circuits like sensors.<br />
To allow compatibility with 3.3 V slaves the internal pull up resistors can be switched<br />
off under software control. The dongle PCB has solder pads for pull up resistors<br />
and protection diodes to 3.3 V on the back side.<br />
The mechanical dimensions of the IOW24-DG dongle are within the limits for a<br />
USB standard plug. This prevents the dongle from blocking adjacent ports and allows<br />
multiple dongles to be used on a single computer or USB hub without losing<br />
ports.<br />
Since the dongle is based on a standard IO-Warrior24 chip the software and development<br />
tools for IO-Warrior are useable for the dongle as well. This makes<br />
support for Linux, MacOS, and Windows as well as for many development systems<br />
available. No specific drivers are required, the dongle works with standard<br />
system drivers.

The keyboard and combined keyboard/mouse<br />
controller family KeyWarrior, and the mouse controller<br />
family MouseWarrior serve as basis for a large number<br />
of industrial input devices. A small but vital customer<br />
base are the manufacturers of products for the disability market and other<br />
speciality input devices.<br />
The joystick controller family "JoyWarrior" serves a broad range of customers<br />
from industrial machine/vision control, professional and semiprofessional<br />
simulator control, to hobby and model building. A good option for front panel<br />
design are the joystick/mouse hybrid controllers MW24J8 and MW24H8 which are<br />
switch selectable to work as a mouse or joystick allowing both cursor control and<br />
data input via a joystick.<br />
JoyWarrior24F8 is a low cost three axis acceleration sensor. With its small size<br />
and simple connection via a USB interface it opens a lot of new application<br />
options. The MouseWarrior24F8 variant of this sensor is a mouse replacement<br />
that needs no surface for operation.<br />
Applications for the IO-Warrior universal USB I/O controllers are very diverse.<br />
Basically only the number of pins and the data rate limits the use of IO-Warrior. It<br />
is used in laboratory setups, test equipment as well as in hobby projects or full<br />
scale device production either as the core of a device or "just" the interface to<br />
USB. IO-Warrior chips control robots and telescopes, do quality control on<br />
production lines, take measurements in labs, control switches and displays in<br />
front panels or simulator cockpits, or work as the USB interface in many kinds of<br />
products.<br />
SpinWarrior is a family of rotary encoder controllers with USB interface. Various<br />
models allow from 3 to 6 encoders to be connected to the USB and are suitable<br />
for motion control, measurement, or human interfacing applications.<br />
Our philosophy is to provide complete solutions that allow our customers to<br />
concentrate on their own strength in developing their end products. The<br />
necessary know how for controlling interfaces like USB or PS/2 is encapsulated in<br />
our chips.
