Uwe,
Just looked at it right now. That looks like a complete
solution, a USB 2.0 interface (Including PHY and SEI)
and a small micro controller. This will probably shorten
your development time overall for the project you described
if the cypress chip can interface to your hardware.
I think my USB 2.0 IP Core will be most useful for people
who either have very special needs, or are are making an
ASIC. You will always need a dedicated USB 2.0 PHY with it.
Either as an external chip, or as an IP Core. SMCS GT3200
is a good example: You can buy it as a chip for prototyping
and then license the IP Macrocell to include in the final
ASIC.
