Overview
The TUSB2077A, produced by Texas Instruments, is a 7-port USB hub that complies with the USB 2.0 specification. This device is a 3.3-V CMOS ASIC that integrates full-speed USB transceivers for all upstream and downstream ports. It operates without the need for software programming, as it is implemented with a digital state machine rather than a microcontroller. The hub supports both bus-powered and self-powered modes, making it versatile for various applications.
