The scanner is not equipped with CPU. The device driver installed in the host computer
includes a control program, which functions as CPU. Host computer sends a command to the
ASIC via the USB controller, the ASIC controls the whole electrical circuits and image
processing of the scanner. The image signals read by the CCD are converted into digital data
by analog IC. The digital data is then processed by the ASIC and output to the host computer
via USB interface.
