Introduction
The ST72681 is a USB 2.0 high-speed Flash drive controller. The USB 2.0 high-speed interface including PHY and function supports USB 2.0 mass storage device class.
The mass storage controller interface (MSCI) combined with the Reed-Solomon encoder/decoder on-the-fly correction (4-byte on 512-byte data blocks) provides a flexible, high transfer rate solution for interfacing a wide of range NAND Flash memory device types.
