USB 3.2 Gen2 PHY IP, Silicon Proven in UMC 28HPC

Overview

The USB 3.2 Gen2X1 transceiver IP supports all USB 3.2 Gen2X1 host and peripheral applications up to 10Gbps. It conforms with the standards of UTMI+ and PIPE4.0. The USB 3.2 Gen2X1 IP contains high-speed mixed signal circuits to handle Gen2 and Gen1 traffic and is backward compatible with high-speed data rates of 480Mbps, full-speed data rates of 12Mbps, and low-speed data rates of 1.5Mbps. The USB 3.2 Gen2X1 IP provides an active switch to enable bi-directional plug-in and particular functionality (such VBUS setup and USB attachment cable orientation identification) through the CC1/CC2 pins specified in the Type-C connection in order to support the USB Type-C connector.
