Additional Details

The CY7C66013-PVC features an integrated transaction translator (TT), which optimizes the data transfer between high-speed and low/full-speed USB devices connected to the hub. Each downstream port has its own over-current detection circuit to protect the hub and connected devices from damage. The hub can be configured for either bus-powered or self-powered operation, depending on the application requirements. The operating voltage typically ranges from 3.3V to 5V. This device is designed to provide a robust and reliable USB connectivity solution for a variety of applications.
