Texas Instruments introduced what it believes to be the industry’s first SuperSpeed USB (USB 3.0) transceiver, which is capable of much faster data transfers when compared to USB High-Speed devices (USB 2.0).
Featuring receiver sensitivity that is twice as good as required by the USB 3.0 specification, the TUSB1310’s PIPE3 and ULPI interfaces enable USB 3.0 functionality when used in conjunction with the integrated application processor digital cores. The 5 Gbps USB 3.0 physical layer transceiver operates from a single crystal or external reference clock with selectable frequencies from 20, 25, 30 and 40 MHz. The device is capable of completing data transfers of a 27 Gigabyte Blu-ray disc in less than 90 seconds, versus nearly 15 minutes with USB 2.0.
The TUSB1310 supports many applications, including surveillance cameras, multimedia handsets, smartphones, digital still cameras, portable media players, personal navigation devices, audio docks, video IP phones, wireless IP phones and software defined radios. TI’s portfolio of SuperSpeed USB devices also includes the SN65LVPE502, a dual-channel USB 3.0 redriver/equaliser; the TPD2EUSB30, a two-channel ESD solution for SuperSpeed USB 3.0 interface; and the TPS25xx series of USB power switches.
