The USB switches are bi-directional, which allows the host 
(computer) and downstream USB device to both send and 
receive data.

Full-Speed Switches

The two FSx switches (FSD1, FSD2) are bi-directional 
switches that can pass rail-to-rail signals. When powered 
with a 3.3V supply, these switches have a nominal r

ON

 

resistance of 7

Ω 

over the signal range of 0V to 3.3V. They 

were specifically designed to pass USB full-speed (12Mbps) 
differential signals and meet the USB 2.0 full-speed signal 
quality specifications.

The FSx switches can also pass USB high speed signals 
(480Mbps) but do not quite meet the USB 2.0 high speed 
signal quality eye diagram compliance requirement.

The maximum signal range for the FSx switches is from 
-1.5V to V

DD

. The signal voltage should not be allowed to 

exceed the V

DD

 voltage rail or go below ground by more 

than -1.5V.

When operated with a 3.3V to 3.6V supply, the FSx switches 
are active (turned ON) whenever the IN logic control voltage 
is 

0.5V and the EN logic voltage is 

1.4V.

High-Speed Switches

The two HSx switches (HSD2, HSD1) are bi-directional 
switches that can pass rail-to-rail signals. When powered 
with a 3.3V supply, these switches have a nominal r

ON

 of 

4.5

Ω

 over the signal range of 0V to 400mV with a r

ON

 

flatness of 0.4

Ω

. The r

ON

 matching between the HSD1 and 

HSD2 switches over this signal range is only 0.01

Ω

 ensuring 

minimal impact by the switches to USB high speed signal 
transitions. As the signal level increases, the r

ON

 switch 

resistance increases. At signal level of 3.3V the switch 
resistance is nominally 20

Ω

The HSx switches were specifically designed to pass USB 
2.0 high-speed (480Mbps) differential signals typically in the 
range of 0V to 400mV. They have low capacitance and high 
bandwidth to pass the USB high-speed signals with 
minimum edge and phase distortion to meet USB 2.0 high 
speed signal quality specifications.

The HSx switches can also pass USB full-speed signals 
(12Mbps) with minimal distortion and meet all the USB 
requirements for USB 2.0 full-speed signaling.

The maximum signal range for the HSx switches is from 
-1.5V to V

DD

. The signal voltage should not exceed the V

DD

 

voltage rail or go below ground by more than -1.5V.

The HSx switches are active (turned ON) whenever the IN 
voltage is 

1.4V and the EN logic voltage 

1.4V when 

operated with a 3.3V to 3.6V supply.
