TUSB9260PVP

Specialized Overview

The TUSB9260PVP is a USB 3.0 to SATA bridge controller manufactured by Texas Instruments, designed to connect USB 3.0 hosts with SATA devices. It supports SuperSpeed data rates up to 5 Gbps and operates within a commercial temperature range of 0°C to 70°C. The component is housed in a 64-pin High-temperature Thin Quad Flatpack (HTQFP) package. Key electrical specifications include a maximum clock frequency of 40 MHz and a maximum data transfer rate of 384 MBps. It complies with ATA and ATAPI bus compatibility standards and features IEEE 1149.1 and IEEE 1149.6 driver interface standards.

Specialized Feature Summary

• Provides a hardware solution for bridging USB 3.0 host controllers to SATA storage devices
• Supports high-speed differential signaling for reliable SuperSpeed data transmission
• Integrates comprehensive power management capabilities for various voltage domains

Specialized Applications

• External storage enclosure designs requiring USB 3.0 connectivity
• Portable hard drive docking stations
• System-on-module platforms needing SATA expansion via USB

Specialized Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix PVP against official datasheets to confirm the HTQFP-64 package and commercial temperature grade. Ensure compliance with RoHS directives and lead-free manufacturing standards as indicated in component documentation. Cross-reference ECCN code EAR99 for export control classification requirements before procurement.

Specialized Selection Notes

Select this component when a direct protocol translation between USB 3.0 and SATA is required without complex firmware implementation. Consider the 64-pin HTQFP footprint for PCB layout constraints. Verify that the system design can accommodate the necessary 1.1V, 1.8V, and 3.3V power rails specified for digital and analog sections.

Specialized Part Context

This device belongs to the TUSB926x family of USB 3.0 to SATA bridges from Texas Instruments. It serves as a companion to USB 3.0 host controllers, enabling standard SATA drives to function over USB interfaces. The PVP variant specifically denotes the plastic quad flatpack package suitable for surface-mount assembly in consumer electronics and industrial applications.

Specialized Replacement Considerations

Check for updated revisions within the TUSB9260 series or alternative bridge controllers from other manufacturers if pin-out compatibility is not required. Verify functional equivalence regarding supported SATA speeds and USB 3.0 feature sets before substitution.
