Chapter 6 Device Configuration
The device supports a large number of features (some mutually exclusive), and must be configured in
order to correctly function when attached to a USB host controller. The hub can be configured either
internally or externally depending on the implemented interface.
Microchip provides a comprehensive software programming tool, Pro-Touch, for configuring the
USB2532 functions, registers and OTP memory. All configuration is to be performed via the Pro-Touch
programming tool. For additional information on the Pro-Touch programming tool, contact your local
Microchip sales representative.
6.1 Configuration Method Selection
The CFG_SEL[1:0] configuration straps and the SDA pin are used to determine the hub configuration
method, as shown in Table 6.1. The software reads the SDA pin and the CFG_SEL[1:0] bits and
configures the system appropriately.
Note: Refer to Chapter 7, "Device Interfaces," on page 30 for detailed information on each device
configuration interface.
6.2 Customer Accessible Functions
The following USB or SMBus accessible functions are available to the customer via the Pro-Touch
Programming Tool.
Note: For additional programming details, refer to the Pro-Touch Programming Tool User Manual.
