The GL3310-LQFP64 is a USB 3.1 Gen 1 Hub Controller IC manufactured by Genesys Logic. This chip is designed to expand a single USB port into multiple USB ports, allowing users to connect more USB devices to their computer or other host device. It complies with the USB 3.1 Gen 1 specification (also known as USB 3.0), offering high-speed data transfer rates.

Applications

• USB Hubs
• Docking stations
• Computer peripherals (e.g., keyboards, mice)
• Embedded systems requiring multiple USB ports
• Monitor with USB hub

Features

• USB 3.1 Gen 1 (USB 3.0) compliant
• Supports multiple downstream USB ports
• Integrated USB transceivers
• Supports Battery Charging (BC) 1.2
• Over-current protection for each port
• LQFP64 package

Benefits

• Expands USB connectivity, allowing more devices to be connected
• Provides high-speed data transfer rates for USB 3.0 devices
• Enables charging of portable devices via USB ports
• Protects against over-current conditions, preventing damage to the hub and connected devices
• Simplifies USB hub design

The GL3310-LQFP64 integrates all the necessary circuitry to implement a USB hub, including the USB transceivers, hub controller logic, and power management features. The LQFP64 package is a low-profile quad flat pack with 64 pins, providing a compact and easy-to-use package for surface-mount assembly. Battery Charging (BC) 1.2 support allows the hub to provide higher charging current to compatible devices, enabling faster charging times.
