Texas Instruments has introduced the industry's first SuperSpeed USB (USB 3.0) transceiver, which is capable of lightning-fast data transfers. Featuring receiver sensitivity that is twice as good as required by the USB 3.0 specification, the TUSB1310’s PIPE3 and ULPI interfaces enable USB 3.0 functionality when used in conjunction with the integrated application processor digital cores.
Steve Anderson, Senior Vice-President over TI's High-Performance Analog Business Unit, said, "The TUSB1310 is capable of completing data transfers of a 27 Gigabit Blu-ray disc in less than 90 seconds, versus nearly 15 minutes with USB 2.0. Using TI's complete SuperSpeed USB portfolio, engineers can design faster, more cost-effective and user-friendly consumer products for today and in the future."
The TUSB1310 supports many applications, including surveillance cameras, multimedia handsets, smartphones, digital still cameras, portable media players, personal navigation devices, audio docks, video IP phones, wireless IP phones and software defined radios.
