USB to <strong>I2C</strong> <strong>Dongle</strong>


Press Release<br />

<strong>Code</strong> <strong>Mercenaries</strong> ships a USB to <strong>I2C</strong> dongle.<br />

The IO-Warrior24 based dongle offers a simple and<br />

easy to use solution to connect <strong>I2C</strong> devices via a USB<br />

port.<br />

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.

About us and our products<br />

<strong>Code</strong> <strong>Mercenaries</strong> is a supplier for the industrial input<br />

device and peripheral manufacturers since 1998.<br />

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.
