I'm not aware of any optical mouse using a general purpose MCU, to my knowledge they are all using ASICs


There are millions, if not tens of millions of USB and PS/2 keyboards and mice out there powered by Cypress MCUs with 8051 cores.


That's a lot of cores


Nordic dominates the market for keyboards and mice. Programmable MCUs with BLE radios are required for any wireless devices.


Some gaming mice do for running RGB lights, macros, or whatever.
