UPD720201K8-711-BAC-A

The µPD720201 is the third generation Universal Serial Bus 3.0 host controllers, which comply with the Universal Serial Bus 3.0 Specification, and Intel’s extensible Host Controller Interface (xHCI). The µPD720201 supports up to four USB3.0 SuperSpeed ports.The µPD720201 use a PCI Express Gen 2 system interface bus allowing system designers to easily add up to four USB3.0 SuperSpeed ports to systems containing the PCI Express bus interface. When connected to USB 3.0-compliant peripherals, the µPD720201 and µPD720202 can transfer information at clock speeds of up to 5 Gbps. The µPD720201 and USB 3.0 standard are fully compliant and backward compatible with the previous USB2.0 Standard. The new USB 3.0 standard supports data transfer speeds up to ten times faster than those of the previous generation USB2.0 standard, enabling quick and efficient transfers of large amount of information.

• PCI Express® Gen 2 system interface bus
• Transfer information at clock speeds of up to 5Gbps
• Improved effective throughput and improved power consumption
• Supports serial peripheral interface (SPI) type ROM for Firmware
• Supports Firmware download interface from system BIOS
