Overview
The PTN36241BBS,118 is a SuperSpeed USB 3.0 redriver IC produced by NXP USA Inc. This device is designed to enhance signal quality in USB 3.0 applications by performing receive equalization on deteriorated input signals and transmit de-emphasis to maximize system link performance. It supports a data signaling rate of 5 Gbit/s through each of its dual channels, making it highly suitable for various systems with different PCB trace and cable channel conditions. The device is powered from a 3.3 V supply and is available in an HVQFN24 package, measuring 4 mm x 4 mm with a 0.5 mm pitch.
