Latest USB-PD source controllers and USB 3.1 10Gbps linear redriver help improve connectivity

Mouser now stocks two new USB solutions from Texas Instruments: the TPS25740/TPS25740A USB source controllers and the TUSB1002 USB 3.1 10Gbps linear redriver. The devices meet many worldwide industry standards, help improve connectivity of peripherals by quickly and easily transferring data, and are ideally-suited for a wide variety of personal and consumer electronics, automotive and industrial USB designs. The source controllers are USB Power Delivery (PD) devices that implement a source that is compliant to USB-PD 2.0 version 1.2 and Type-C revision 1.2. The controllers enable up to three different voltages using USB-PD, and are pin-selectable both in voltage and peak power settings. Integrated into each controller is also an impressive set of protection features for high voltage and safety. Target applications for these devices include data-less USB-PD adaptors, dedicated charging ports, and power banks. The source controllers are supported by evaluation modules, which are also available from Mouser. The TUSB1002 is the industry’s first dual-channel USB 3.1 Gen 2 redriver and signal conditioner. Delivering reliable communication in a broad array of electronic applications, these ultra-low-power architecture devices help reduce idle power consumption through the use of USB 3.1 low-power modes, and feature a linear equaliser with 14 settings that compensate for signal path losses. Supporting both USB 3.1 Gen 1 (5Gbps) and Gen 2 (10Gbps), the device provides design flexibility with its dual-lane implementation and small package size, and offers best-in-class equalisation performance to help system designs pass standard USB compliance. The linear redriver is also supported by an evaluation module. The device is ideal for notebook and desktop computers, TVs, tablets, active cable, cell phones, and docking stations.
