CMOS switch operates with Hi-Speed USB

Toshiba Electronics

TC7USB221 switch

Toshiba Electronics Europe (TEE) has introduced a miniature, low-power CMOS switch IC for use in USB 2.0 (Hi-Speed USB) applications.

The TC7USB221 is a USB 2.0 dual single pole double throw (SPDT) bus switch with low ON resistance and low pin capacitance, making it suitable for Hi-Speed USB operation with data rates up to 480Mbps.

A typical application for the IC would be a multiplexer/demultiplexer function between two USB controllers.

The switch operates within a voltage range of 2.3V and 3.6V, has a typical ON resistance of 6.5ohm and a low typical switch on capacitance of 7pF.

This results in a typical 3dB bandwidth of 720MHz and 820MHz for the TSSOP and WLCSP package, respectively.

A maximum quiescent current of 2uA (at 3.6V) helps designers to reduce system power consumption.

Switching between different ports is achieved via a select pin, while an output enable (OE) pin can be used to isolate a USB controller and devices.

Designed to minimise board space, the TC7USB221 is available in two package options.

The miniature WCSP10 package measures 1.6mm x 1.2mm x 0.67mm, while the TSSOP14 alternative has dimensions of 4.4mm x 5.4mm x 1.2mm.

OE and I/O pins are equipped with power-down protection.

In addition, every pin is equipped with ESD protection according to machine model and human body model of at least 200V and 2,000V, respectively.
