The RT1710S is a Type-C cable ID for active and passive cables. All USB Full-Featured Type-C cables shall be electronically marked. Electronically marked cables shall support USB Power Delivery Structured VDM Discover Identity command directed to SOP'. This provides a method to determine the characteristics of the cable, e.g. its current carrying capability, its performance, vendor identification, etc.

The TUSB1044 is a USB Type-C Alt Mode redriver switch supporting data rates up to 10 Gbps. This protocol-agnostic linear redriver is capable of supporting USB Type-C Alt Mode interfaces including DisplayPort.

The FUSB302 evaluation board (FUSB302TGEVB) and included software allows customers a complete platform to evaluate the Type-C interface detection solution the FUSB302T provides. The evaluation board is designed for both stand-alone operation and connection to test equipment for specific testing requirements.

The LC234X module is a low cost USB to UART bridge using the FTDI FT234XD to transfer data at up to 3M Baud. Ideal for programming Arduino Pro, ESP modules etc., the pinout follows the industry standard FTDI TTL cable interface. In addition to the 4 data lines (RXD, TXD, RTS, CTS) there is also the option to output 5V power to external hardware.

The TUSB1002A is a dual channel, USB 3.1 SuperSpeed Plus re-driver and signal conditioner supporting data rates of 10.0Gbps. The device complies with USB 3.1 spec revision 1.0, supporting electrical idle condition and low frequency periodic signals (LFPS) for USB 3.1 power management modes. The device offers programmable equalization that extends the interconnect distance between two devices.

The EVAL-SCS002V1 shows minimum USB-C sink implementation. It can be uses as a small footprint reference design for fast migration of any USB mini-B, micro-B or STD-B application to USB-C.

The GPIO Expander Keypad and LCD Demo Board is designed to demonstrate using GPIO expanders in a keypad and LCD example. The MCP23X17 interfaces to a 2x16 LCD module and the MCP23X08 interfaces to a 4x4 keyed matrix.

The goal of this application circuit is to isolate a peripheral device that already implements a USB interface. It is not possible to make a fully compliant bus-powered cable because there are no 100% efficient power converters to transfer the bus voltage across the barrier. In addition, the quiescent current of the converter does not comply with the standby current requirements of the USB standa…

The 4–20mA current loop is widely used as an analog communication interface in industrial applications for transmitting the data from remote sensors to a programmable logic controller (PLC) in a central control center over a twisted pair cable. Here, 4mA represents the lowest temperature value, and 20mA represents the highest measured temperature.

The Alcatraz (MAXREFDES34#) subsystem provides a reference design for securing Xilinx FPGAs to protect IP and prevent attached peripheral counterfeiting. The system implements a SHA-256 challenge-response between the FPGA and a DS28E15 secure authenticator. Boards for purchase, hardware, and firmware design files provide complete system information for rapid prototyping and development.
