Description
General part information
USB5906C Series
Microchip’s USB5906C [SmartHub](https://www.microchip.com/en-us/products/interface-and-connectivity/usb/usb-hubs/smarthub-ics)™ is a 6 port, SuperSpeed (SS), low power, configurable USB3.2 Gen1 hub and fully compliant with USB-IF's USB3.2 Gen1 specification. The USB5906C also supports Hi-Speed (HS), Full Speed (FS) and Low Speed (LS) USB signaling, offering complete coverage of all defined USB operating speeds. The new SuperSpeed hubs operate in parallel with the USB 2.0 controller, so 5 Gbps SuperSpeed data transfers are not affected by slower USB 2.0 traffic.
**This "C" version contains the latest silicon. All new USB5906 designs should move to this newer "C" version.**
Microchip SmartHub's are defined as USB hubs that integrates system levels functions typically associated with a separate MCU or processor. The USB5906C SmartHub enables communication to other peripherals in addition to USB. The USB5906C's I/O Bridging capability allows the host to seamlessly interface to peripherals via I²C, SPI or GPIOs over USB. The USB5906C also enable a downstream device to take control of the host system by swapping roles and becoming the host port. USB5906C based systems can also switch between two different hosts if required. This role changing technology is called FlexConnect and can be initiated through hardware or software commands.
