[Microchip] USB5906CT/KD USB Hub Controller——6-Port USB 3.2 Gen 1 SmartHub Controller With Support For A Single USB Type-C® UFP

USB5906CT/KD SmartHub™ is a 6 port, SuperSpeed (SS), low power, configurable USB3.2 Gen1 hub and fully compliant with USB-IF's USB3.2 Gen1 specification.

USB5906CT/KD also supports Hi-Speed (HS), Full Speed (FS) and Low Speed (LS) USB signaling, offering complete coverage of all defined USB operating speeds. The new SuperSpeed hubs operate in parallel with the USB 2.0 controller, so 5 Gbps SuperSpeed data transfers are not affected by slower USB 2.0 traffic.

USB5906CT/KD supports the legacy USB speeds (HS/FS/LS) through a dedicated USB 2.0 hub controller that is the culmination of five generations of Microchip hub controller design and experience with proven reliability, interoperability, and device compatibility. The SuperSpeed hub controller operates in parallel with the USB 2.0 hub controller, decoupling the 5 Gbps SS data transfers from bottlenecks due to the slower USB 2.0 traffic.

USB5906CT/KD hub feature controller enables OEMs to configure their system using “Configuration Straps.” These straps simplify the configuration process, assigning default values to USB 3.2 Gen 1 ports and GPIOs. OEMs can disable ports, enable battery charging, and define GPIO functions as default assignments on power-up, removing the need for OTP or external SPI ROM.
