TUSB1044: USBC to USBC redriver

Part Number: TUSB1044

Hello,

Can a single TUSB1044 be used in a USB C receptacle to USB C receptacle application with full feature function? If so, are there any app notes or reference designs demonstrating this?

Thanks,

Michael

    You can't as this design will potentially extend the USB Type-C cable to more than 1m which is a USB spec violation. Having the two Type-C receptacles on both ends will also create issue with Normal and Flip orientation configuration.

    If you want to design with USB Type-C receptacle on both ends, you need a hub in the middle which is a Type-C dock design.

    If you only want to use the TUSB1044, you have to design with a Type-C plug on one end and then a Type-C receptacle on the other end.

    Thanks
