Overview

The USB3340-EZK-TR is a high-speed USB 2.0 transceiver featuring a ULPI interface and Microchip's flexPWR technology. It is designed to provide a small footprint, low-power physical layer (PHY) solution for portable electronic devices. The chip includes integrated regulators and battery charging support compliant with the USB-IF BC 1.2 specification.

Why Choose This Part

This transceiver reduces BOM cost and PCB area by integrating 1.8V and 3.3V regulators and requiring no external wrapper. It features VariSense and PHYBoost technology to compensate for signal integrity issues in long cable or high-capacitance environments, and its 150mV receiver hysteresis ensures reliable data recovery.

Applications

Mobile Handsets
Provides high-speed USB connectivity and battery charging detection for smartphones and tablets.
Industrial Computing
Adds a robust USB 2.0 interface to embedded systems using processors with ULPI-compliant MACs.
Portable Medical Devices
Utilizes low power consumption modes (1uA standby) to extend battery life in handheld diagnostic equipment.
Portable Media Players
Enables high-speed data transfer and flexible power management in consumer electronics.

Getting Started

Engineers should pair this PHY with an FPGA or microcontroller featuring a ULPI (UTMI+ Low Pin Interface) Link Layer. Design layout should prioritize impedance-matched differential pairs for the USB D+/D- lines and minimize trace length on the 60MHz ULPI clock line. Evaluation can be performed using Microchip's USB3340 evaluation boards or generic ULPI breakout modules.
