Terminus Circuits' USB 3.1 PHY is crafted to meet the expanding demands of high-speed data transfer interfaces, ensuring a seamless user experience between host and peripheral devices. This PHY employs SerDes technology to deliver high-speed connectivity benefitting from USB 3.1 and USB 3.0 standards, which translates to improved bandwidth and lower power consumption for connected devices.
The USB 3.1 PHY from Terminus Circuits is specially designed for applications that necessitate high data transfer rates, such as SoCs for media storage and playback devices. It boasts a physical media attachment macro complemented by a coherent coding layer and configurations that support single and quad lane setups. This level of flexibility is intended to accommodate diverse design requirements and integration challenges.
Moreover, the USB 3.1 PHY grants versatile connectivity through parallel data widths, programmable multi-tap equalizers, and signal integrity measures that handle receiver detection and cable support up to one meter. The design also incorporates a sophisticated low jitter PLL that underpins the high-speed operations of the interface, effectively aligning the PHY with the needs of modern high-performance digital environments.
