Microchip’s USB5807C [SmartHub](https://www.microchip.com/en-us/products/interface-and-connectivity/usb/usb-hubs/smarthub-ics)™ is a 7 port, SuperSpeed (SS), low power, configurable USB3.1 Gen1 hub and fully compliant with USB-IF's USB 3.2 Gen1 specification (TID1595). This supports the latest ECNs for USB-IF logo compliance for the new USB Type-C™ industry initiative. The USB5807C 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 USB5807 designs should move to this newer "C" version.**

The USB5807C is also a SmartHub which is defined as a USB hub that integrates system levels functions typically associated with a separate MCU or processor. The USB5807C SmartHub enables a downstream device to take control of the host system by swapping roles and becoming the host port. The SmartHub 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.Read more
