DALLAS, Oct. 26, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Expanding the industry's
most comprehensive portfolio of USB-compliant integrated circuits (ICs), Texas Instruments (TI) (NASDAQ: TXN) today introduced
five new USB Type-C and Power Delivery (PD) devices that enable engineers to design USB Type-C electronics with better signal
quality and protection against system damage.
The TUSB1046 family of linear redrivers is the industry's first to support 10G USB data and DisplayPort™ 1.4 video transfer,
enabling faster transmission without signal integrity degradation. To prevent hard field failure, the TPD8S300 family includes
the industry's first single-chip solution to protect USB Type-C and PD systems from overvoltage damage. Additionally, the new
TPS65983B USB PD 3.0 controller enables a complete system design and more reliable power and data transfer with integrated power
path, fast role swap hardware, authentication support and standardized voltages. For more information, see www.ti.com/usbtypecpd2016-pr.
Faster data and video transfer
The new TUSB1046 and TUSB1002 redrivers support twice the data bandwidth of current 5G USB solutions, enabling 10G data
and video transfer with up to 8K resolution, while consuming only 335 mW of active power at 10G USB speeds. The redrivers
compensate channel loss up to 14.4 dB when transmitted over long traces and cables. Additionally, 16 equalization levels optimize
performance by compensating intersymbol interference jitter and signal attenuation, enabling better interoperability and
connectivity with other devices. TI's 10G linear redriver family is pin-to-pin compatible with TI's family of 5G USB devices,
enabling seamless speed upgrades in existing designs.
Overvoltage port protection
Using up to 75 percent less board space than a discrete implementation, the TPD8S300 and TPD6S300 devices protect
against overvoltage damage caused by a DC short to the 20-V bus voltage (Vbus) on the configuration channel (CC) and sideband use
(SBU) pins, while maintaining signal integrity. The port protectors integrate transient voltage suppression (TVS) diodes with
low-clamping performance to provide International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) 61000-4-2 electrostatic discharge protection
(ESD) and protect the downstream PD controller.
Fully managed power path
The TPS65983B single-chip device is the only USB PD 3.0 controller that fully integrates the power path, while
providing overcurrent, overvoltage, reverse current and thermal protection. The controller features fast role swap for sink or
source implementations to give designers maximum flexibility.
Enabling compliance of the latest USB standards
These devices comply with the new USB Type-C, USB 3.1 Gen 2 and PD 3.0 standards, increasing reliability over previous
specifications and enabling slim design, robust power delivery, and the use of universal connectors and cables. Additionally,
these power, signal-chain and circuit-protection devices allow USB Type-C and PD systems to function seamlessly together, giving
designers peace of mind.
Package, availability and pricing
TI's new USB Type-C and PD devices are available with package and pricing as listed in the table below. The TUSB1002,
TUSB1046 and TPS65983B devices are available in production quantities from the TI store and authorized distributors. Prototype
samples are available for the TPD8S300 and TPD6S300 protection devices through TI.com and authorized distributors. Additionally,
