Microchip, Controller IC, 1-Channel 5 Gbps, 3.6V, USB 3.1, 1.2 V, 56-Pin SQFN

From Microchip the USB5744 is a USB 3.0 compliant (also known as USB 3.1 Gen 1) and supports all the defined USB speeds up to the 5 Gbps SuperSpeed (SS) data rate on all enabled downstream ports. The device integrates is a USB 2.0 controller to decouple SuperSpeed data from slower USB 2.0 traffic to avoid bottlenecks slower USB 2.0 traffic can create.

Four downstream USB 3.0 (USB 3.1 Gen1)/2.0 ports
Integrated Hub Feature Controller (HFC) enabling port and GPIO configuration through OTP
Battery Charging: USB-IF revision 1.2 support on downstream ports (DCP, CDP, SDP)
Simultaneous data transfer for 2500 mA of high speed charging
Port Configuration Straps: Predefined configuration of port settings – Battery Charging, Non-Removable, Disable
ProTouch2: Configuration tool to enable enhanced OEM configuration options through either One-Time Programmable (OTP) (8Kbit) or external SPI ROM
Manufacturing line programming tool and field update capabilities
USB Link Power Management (LPM) support
IETF RFC 4122 compliant 128-bit UUID
Compatible with Microsoft® Windows® 8/8.1 and other major OS’s
