All:
Do any members have any advice on what manufacturers I should choose for an USB 2.0 windows driver/ embedded device solution to add hi speed data transfer to my MOD5270 telemetry design?
Thanks!

MOD5270 and USB 2.0 isochronous data transfer
Real Programmers don't comment their code. If it was hard to write, it should be hard to understand

Hi Chris,
We recently made a new revision of the MOD-DEV-100 carrier that uses a USB-UART solution from SiLabs(CP2102). I am very happy with the simplicity of this part. No external parts except for a small cap I put on the input voltage. All other parts seem to need a few passives and a crystal. They also sell a cheap eval board, as do the other "simple-slave" USB vendors. The driver support is great but I am just using this as a virtual com port. You might want to search through their support to see if they support Isochronous transfers with their driver.
Another thing we changed is the switching power supply. We moved to the Maxim MAX5082. This allows an input voltage of 4.5v-40v and outputs 3.3v up to 1.5A. You can also get an eval kit for the MAX5080 which does the same range up to 1A output. I am able to power the dev board and any of our modules via USB with this switcher.
Let me know if you would want the schematic for this new dev board.
