Diodes' PI3EQX10312 and PI3EQX10312 are linear ReDriver devices that provide 10 Gbps Mux and DeMux functionality. These devices are fully compliant with USB 3.2 Gen 2 and backward compatible with USB 3.0. Designed for use in USB Type-C ports, they enable 2:1 Mux from device TX to host RX and 1:2 DeMux from host TX to device RX.
One of the key advantages of these devices is their ability to extend PCB trace lengths while minimizing cost, power consumption, and latency. They achieve this by offering adjustable linear equalization, output swing, and flat gain control through either I2C or pin control. This allows for optimized performance over various physical media by reducing inter-symbol interference.
The PI3EQX10312 also features a plug-in detector for USB-C connectors and supports VCONN, which enables the powering of active cables and other accessories. These devices operate from a supply voltage of 3.3V and can withstand temperatures ranging from -40°C to +70°C.
In summary, Diodes' ReDriver devices offer a cost-effective and efficient solution for USB Type-C ports, delivering lower latency, extended PCB trace lengths, and optimized performance over various physical media. Their adjustable features and compatibility with USB standards make them suitable for a wide range of applications.
