Overview
The NB7NPQ1104M, produced by onsemi, is a high-performance 2-Port linear redriver designed to support USB 3.1 Gen 1 and USB 3.1 Gen 2 applications. This component is engineered to compensate for signal integrity degradation caused by PCB traces, transmission cables, and inter-symbol interference (ISI). It offers programmable equalization and flat gain for each independent channel, ensuring optimal performance across various physical mediums.
The device operates with a 3.3 V power supply and supports data rates of 5 Gbps and 10 Gbps. It features automatic receiver detection, integrated input and output termination, and adaptive power management with an auto slumber mode. The NB7NPQ1104M is packaged in a 3.5 x 9 mm WQFN42 package and is specified to operate across the industrial temperature range of –40°C to 85°C.
