The EVB-USB7052N Evaluation Kit is a demonstration and evaluation platform that provides the necessary requirements and interface options for evaluating the EVB-USB7052N, which is a four-port High-Speed (HS) USB smart hub on a four-layer RoHS-compliant Printed Circuit Board (PCB). This allows the user to gain an understanding of the product and accelerate the integration of the EVB-USB7052N into the user’s design.
The EVB-USB7052N is compliant with USB 3.2 Gen 1 on the upstream port and on downstream ports 1 to 3. The EVB-USB7052N is also compliant with the USB 2.0 HS, Full-Speed (FS), and Low-Speed (LS) USB signaling. The evaluation platform supports four downstream ports: Two USB Type-C® Gen 1 ports, one USB Type-A Gen 1 port, and one USB 2.0 port. The EVB-USB7052N platform also supports battery charging on all four downstream ports (maximum of 10A at any one time).
The EVB-USB7052N supports FlexConnect role reversal for any of the downstream ports with the upstream port. The EVB-USB7052N has four configurations for operation through internal default settings and supports custom configurations through I2C or through the external 16-Mbit SPI Flash device.
The EVB-USB7052N demonstrates driver compatibility with Microsoft® Windows® 10, Windows 8.x, Windows 7, Windows XP, Mac OS® X 10.4+, and Linux® hub drivers.
