Transparent USB Mouse Input via UART
Adding standard pointing devices to embedded applications often involves managing the complex USB Host and Human Interface Device (HID) protocol. This category offers specialized chips that act as a transparent bridge, converting data from a standard USB mouse into a simple, standardized serial format. Our hardware solutions abstract away the intricacies of the USB stack, delivering processed mouse movements (X/Y coordinates) and button clicks directly to your microcontroller via a simple UART connection. This allows for quick integration of user-friendly navigation into industrial interfaces, point-of-sale terminals, and custom control panels.
Simplified Integration for Embedded Pointer Systems
The effort required to implement and maintain a full USB stack for peripheral control can consume valuable development resources. INACKS integrated circuits and modules help a lot to develop products with this category because it avoids the firmware engineer to have to implement by itself the protocol, therefore there are less costs, and product can be ended sooner. By using our dedicated converter chip, all the low-level complexities of the USB protocol and mouse data parsing are handled autonomously. Your firmware simply reads clear positional and button data over UART, allowing engineers to focus entirely on the application’s user experience and functionality, dramatically reducing time-to-market.
