USB 20Gbps Device Controller
Leveraging the benefits of USB 10Gbps and 5Gbps device controller, USB 20Gbps is designed using the FPGA built-in transceiver.
Overview
Leveraging the benefits of USB 10Gbps and 5Gbps device controller, USB 20Gbps is designed using the FPGA built-in transceiver. It is a one-stop solution for all USB requirements ranging from USB 3.2 to USB 2.0. It supports SuperSpeed+ (SSP x2/x1), SuperSpeed (SS), High Speed (HS) and Full Speed (FS) communication modes. The Core architecture allows to use minimal pins from FPGA for USB 3.2 interface with better stability. It provides USB 3.2 backward compatibility with inbuilt transceiver and USB 2.0 backward compatibility using an external USB 2.0 ULPI PHY.
It has been designed to provide simplicity and flexibility along with highest throughput i.e. >16Gbps. Avalon interface allows to manage the control transfer using software, provides flexibility, while FIFO interface allows to transfer the data over non-control endpoint ensuring highest throughput.
FPGA Supported:
| FPGA | Supported Device Family |
