Microchip Technology EVB-USB5816 SmartHub Evaluation Board
Microchip Technology EVB-USB5816 SmartHub Evaluation Board is a demonstration and evaluation platform that provides the requirements and interface options for evaluating the EVB-USB5816 6-Port SuperSpeed (SS) USB SmartHub™ IC. The EVB-USB5816 is compliant with USB 2.0 Hi-Speed (HS), Full-Speed (FS), and Low-Speed (LS) USB signaling. The EVB-USB5816 is also compliant with USB 3.2Gen1 on the upstream port and downstream ports 1 to 5.The evaluation platform supports six downstream ports: one USB 3.1 Gen1 Type-C® port, four USB 3.1 Gen1 ports, and one USB 2.0 port with Type-A connectors. The device also supports battery charging on all six downstream ports (maximum of 10A at any one time, requires a 12V, 85W supply). The Microchip EVB-USB5816 offers two configurations for operation through internal default settings and supports custom configurations through the external 16-Mbit SPI Flash device.
The EVB-USB5816 demonstrates driver compatibility with Microsoft® Windows® 10, Windows 8.x, Windows 7, Windows XP, Mac OS® X 10.4+, and Linux® hub drivers.
