Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TUSB1002A, TUSB1044
Hello everyone,
our plan is to do an active USB Type-C cable which supports speed up to USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 (20 Gbits) and also use the e-Marker CYPD2105-20FNXIT from Cypress.
I found the TUSB1104 which is a USB 3.2 x2 Adaptive Linear Redriver. However in the datasheet there seems to be no information if the TUSB1104 can be used for active cables.
So is it possible to use the TUSB1104 in active cables?
If so should there be one TUSB1104 per cable or is it necessary to use one per plug? Are there any requirements for the e-Marker?
In the data sheet of TUSB1104 on page 43 I can only see that there is a connection from SCL, SDA and EN between the TUSB1104 and the CC/PD controller. Is this connection necassary?
Are there any reference designs/design rules for active cable design with the TUSB1104?
Thanks for your help
