Texas Instruments Delivers 1st Discrete SuperSpeed USB 3.0 Transceiver
Texas Instruments Incorporated (TI) today introduced the industry’s first SuperSpeed USB (USB 3.0) transceiver, which is capable of lightning-fast data transfers when compared to USB High-Speed devices (USB 2.0). Featuring receiver sensitivity that is twice as good as required by the USB 3.0 specification, the TUSB1310’s PIPE3 and ULPI interfaces enable USB 3.0 functionality when used in conjunction with the integrated application processor digital cores. This allows the TUSB1310 to provide a cost-effective USB 3.0 solution with few external components and minimum implementation cost.
“End users are demanding the ability to store huge photo and high-definition video files on their portable consumer devices with ease and speed,” said Steve Anderson, senior vice president over TI’s High-Performance Analog business unit. “The TUSB1310 is capable of completing data transfers of a 27 Gigabit Blu-ray disc in less than 90 seconds, versus nearly 15 minutes with USB 2.0. Using TI’s complete SuperSpeed USB portfolio, engineers can design faster, more cost-effective and user-friendly consumer products for today and in the future.”
