USB Hubs and Devices
Microchip's versatile, cost-effective and power-efficient USB hubs, bridges, switches, transceivers and port power controllers deliver industry-leading data throughput in mixed-speed USB environments. The USB hub families provide USB port expansion solutions for USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 applications that demand ultra-low power and a small footprint without compromising on performance. Microchip's USB 2.0 bridge family of products combines an ultra-fast interface between a USB host and today's most popular Flash media card and SmartCard formats.
Our Hi-Speed USB 2.0 switches and ULPI-based transceivers provide an ultra-small footprint and data multiplexing on a common connector with proven ESD protection, and our port power controllers provide a single USB port power switch capable of up to 2.5 Amps of continuous current as well as a USB 2.0 compliant data switch.
