  • HI Edgar,

    Schematic feedback:

    • A USB 3.0 capable hub and connectors were used, but only USB 2.0 was connected.  It that expected?
    • If the application does not require Billboard or a HID interface, I would recommend TUSB4041 or TUSB8042A.
    • The TEST pin should be pulled low.
    • Installing pullups on PWRCTL outputs will enable battery charging which can use over 1.5A per port.  External pullups on these pins are not required for normal operation.
    • No USB port appears connected to the Type-C port in the schematic.
    • USB_VBUS should only be high when a powered, active host is connected to the hub.  It should not be pulled permanently high.
