TUSB213RGYT

Specialized Overview

The TUSB213RGYT is a USB 2.0 High Speed signal conditioner and redriver manufactured by Texas Instruments, designed to extend cable lengths and improve signal integrity in USB host-to-device connections. It operates within a supply voltage range of 4.4 V to 5.5 V, with a typical operating current of 18 mA. The device supports data rates up to 480 Mb/s and features two ports for bidirectional signal transmission. It is housed in a VQFN-14 package suitable for surface mount installation. The component functions across an industrial temperature range from -40°C to +85°C and includes I2C interface capabilities for configuration.

Specialized Feature Summary

• Provides signal conditioning and equalization to compensate for high-frequency losses in long USB cables
• Supports USB 2.0 High Speed operation with automatic polarity correction for reversible connectors
• Includes integrated DC boost capability to enhance signal swing levels at the receiver end

Specialized Applications

• Extending USB cable lengths beyond standard limits in desktop and laptop systems
• Signal restoration in docking stations and hubs requiring reliable high-speed data transfer
• Industrial control panels where robust USB connectivity over extended distances is required

Specialized Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'RGYT' corresponds to the tape-and-reel packaging variant when ordering. Confirm that the I2C address settings align with the system design requirements. Ensure ESD protection measures are adequate during handling due to moisture sensitivity classification. Cross-reference the datasheet revision to confirm pinout compatibility with existing PCB footprints before finalizing procurement.

Specialized Selection Notes

Select this component when extending USB 2.0 High Speed links beyond three meters is necessary. Evaluate the need for I2C configurability versus fixed settings based on application complexity. Consider the VQFN-14 thermal performance if multiple units are placed in close proximity. Verify that the 5V supply rail stability meets the 4.4V minimum threshold under all load conditions.

Specialized Part Context

This part belongs to the TUSB213 series of USB signal conditioners. It serves as a bridge between host controllers and peripheral devices, addressing signal degradation issues inherent in passive copper cabling. The device complements other USB interface solutions by focusing specifically on physical layer integrity rather than protocol conversion or hub management.
