USB Type-A Plug to USB Type-C Receptacle SuperSpeed MUX With DFP Controller Reference Design

Texas Instruments

The TIDA-00890 Dongle is designed to evaluate HD3SS3220 devices for DFP implementations. This reference design can also be used as a hardware reference design for any implementation using the HD3SS3220 with a USB-C™ connector. The layout files can be used as a guideline to implement the TUSB321A HD3SS3220 with illustrations of the routing/placement rules. The reference design includes on-board USB Type-A plug to connect to legacy USB systems. Please note that the design may include test components for evaluation purposes not applicable for production.
