GPIF II example for linear image sensor

I would like to use the FX3 to control an Image scanner.

That involves controlling of  stepper motors, creating clock signals for linear Image sensor and AD converter, reading raw data, sending USB-data to host.

Is there any design example which I could use as a reference?

To interface image sensor and send data to host you can refer the

application note:

AN75779 - How to Implement an Image Sensor Interface Using EZ-USB® FX3™ in

a USB Video Class (UVC) Framework

Controlling of stepper motors:

The FX3 device has eight complex GPIO blocks that can be used to implement

various functions such as timer, counter and PWM. You can refer the example

code to interface the motor. Follow the path C:\Program Files

(x86)\Cypress\EZ-USB FX3

SDK\1.3\firmware\serialif_examples\cyfxgpiocomplexapp

Thank you for the answer.

Unfortunately the UVC example is not really usable, since the timing of an area Image sensor is quite different to a linear Image sensor (CCD or CIS). I hoped there would be something closer to my needs...
