Introduction
EZ-USB HX2LP
is Cypress’s next-generation family of high-
performance, low-power USB 2.0 hub controllers. HX2LP is an
ultra low-power single-chip USB 2.0 hub controller with
integrated upstream and downstream transceivers, a USB
Serial Interface Engine (SIE), USB Hub Control and Repeater
logic, and Transaction Translator (TT) logic. Cypress has also
integrated many of the external passive components, such as
pull-up and pull-down resistors, reducing the overall bill-of-
materials required to implement a hub design. The entire
HX2LP portfolio consists of:
1. CY7C65640B (TetraHub LP): 4-port/multiple transaction
translator
This device option is fit/form/function compatible with Cy-
press’s existing CY7C65640 device. Cypress’s “Tetra” ar-
chitecture provides four downstream USB ports, each with
a dedicated Transaction Translator (TT), making it the high-
est-performance hub available. The TetraHub LP also of-
fers best-in-class power consumption. The CY7C65640B is
available in a 56 QFN (TetraHub pin-compatible) for space
saving designs.
2. CY7C65630: 4-port/single transaction translator
This device option is for ultra low-cost applications where
performance is secondary consideration. All four ports
must share a single transaction translator in this configura-
tion. The CY7C65630 is available in a 56 QFN and is also
pin for pin-compatible with the CY7C65640.
3. CY7C65620:
This device option is for a 2-port bus powered application.
Both ports must share a single transaction translator in this
configuration. The CY7C65620 is available in a 56 QFN
and is also pin for pin compatible with the CY7C65640.
All device options are supported by Cypress’s world-class
reference design kits, which include board schematics, bill of
materials, Gerber files, Orcad files, and thorough design
documentation.
