ON Semiconductor's NB7VPQ70xM is a 1.8 V single- and dual-channel redrivers for USB 3.1 Gen 1 and USB 3.1 Gen 2 applications which supports both 5 Gbps and 10 Gbps data rates. Signal integrity degrades from PCB traces, transmission cables, and inter-symbol interference (ISI). The NB7VPQ70xM compensates for these losses by engaging varying levels of equalization at the input receiver and de-emphasis on output driver. The output transmitter circuitry provides user selectable de-emphasis and output amplitude settings to create the best eye openings for the outgoing data signals. The NB7VPQ70xM features an intelligent LFPS controller. This controller senses the low frequency signals and automatically disables driver de-emphasis for full USB 3.1 Gen 1 and USB 3.1 Gen 2 compliances. After power up, the NB7VPQ70xM periodically checks both of the TX output pairs for a receiver connection. When the receiver is detected, the RX termination becomes enabled and the NB7VPQ70xM is set to perform the redrive function.
