Chapter 1 General Description
The USB2533 is a low-power, OEM configurable, MTT (Multi-Transaction Translator) USB 2.0 hub
controller with 3 downstream ports and advanced features for embedded USB applications. The
USB2533 is fully compliant with the USB 2.0 Specification, USB 2.0 Link Power Management
Addendum and will attach to an upstream port as a Full-Speed hub or as a Full-/Hi-Speed hub. The
3-port hub supports Low-Speed, Full-Speed, and Hi-Speed (if operating as a Hi-Speed hub)
downstream devices on all of the enabled downstream ports.
The USB2533 has been specifically optimized for embedded systems where high performance, and
minimal BOM costs are critical design requirements. Standby mode power has been minimized and
reference clock inputs can be aligned to the customer’s specific application. Additionally, all required
resistors on the USB ports are integrated into the hub, including all series termination and pull-up/pull-
down resistors on the D+ and D– pins.
The USB2533 supports both upstream battery charger detection and downstream battery charging.
The USB2533 integrated battery charger detection circuitry supports the USB-IF Battery Charging
(BC1.2) detection method and most Apple devices. These circuits are used to detect the attachment
and type of a USB charger and provide an interrupt output to indicate charger information is available
to be read from the device’s status registers via the serial interface. The USB2533 provides the battery
charging handshake and supports the following USB-IF BC1.2 charging profiles:
DCP: Dedicated Charging Port (Power brick with no data)
CDP: Charging Downstream Port (1.5A with data)
SDP: Standard Downstream Port (0.5A with data)
Custom profiles loaded via SMBus or OTP
The USB2533 provides an additional USB endpoint dedicated for use as a USB to I
2
C interface,
allowing external circuits or devices to be monitored, controlled, or configured via the USB interface.
Additionally, the USB2533 includes many powerful and unique features such as:
FlexConnect, which provides flexible connectivity options. The USB2533’s downstream port 1 can be
swapped with the upstream port, allowing master capable devices to control other devices on the hub.
MultiTRAK
TM
Technology, which utilizes a dedicated Transaction Translator (TT) per port to maintain
consistent full-speed data throughput regardless of the number of active downstream connections.
MultiTRAK
TM
outperforms conventional USB 2.0 hubs with a single TT in USB full-speed data transfers.
PortMap, which provides flexible port mapping and disable sequences. The downstream ports of a
USB2533 hub can be reordered or disabled in any sequence to support multiple platform designs with
minimum effort. For any port that is disabled, the USB2533 hub controllers automatically reorder the
remaining ports to match the USB host controller’s port numbering scheme.
PortSwap, which adds per-port programmability to USB differential-pair pin locations. PortSwap allows
direct alignment of USB signals (D+/D-) to connectors to avoid uneven trace length or crossing of the
USB differential signals on the PCB.
PHYBoost, which provides programmable levels of Hi-Speed USB
signal drive strength in the downstream port transceivers. PHYBoost
attempts to restore USB signal integrity in a compromised system
environment. The graphic on the right shows an example of Hi-
Speed USB eye diagrams before and after PHYBoost signal integrity
restoration.
VariSense, which controls the USB receiver sensitivity enabling programmable levels of USB signal
receive sensitivity. This capability allows operation in a sub-optimal system environment, such as when
a captive USB cable is used.
The USB2533 is available in commercial (0°C to +70°C) and industrial (-40°C to +85°C) temperature
range versions.

Chapter 1 General Description
The USB2533 is a low-power, OEM configurable, MTT (Multi-Transaction Translator) USB 2.0 hub
controller with 3 downstream ports and advanced features for embedded USB applications. The
USB2533 is fully compliant with the USB 2.0 Specification, USB 2.0 Link Power Management
Addendum and will attach to an upstream port as a Full-Speed hub or as a Full-/Hi-Speed hub. The
3-port hub supports Low-Speed, Full-Speed, and Hi-Speed (if operating as a Hi-Speed hub)
downstream devices on all of the enabled downstream ports.
The USB2533 has been specifically optimized for embedded systems where high performance, and
minimal BOM costs are critical design requirements. Standby mode power has been minimized and
reference clock inputs can be aligned to the customer’s specific application. Additionally, all required
resistors on the USB ports are integrated into the hub, including all series termination and pull-up/pull-
down resistors on the D+ and D– pins.
The USB2533 supports both upstream battery charger detection and downstream battery charging.
The USB2533 integrated battery charger detection circuitry supports the USB-IF Battery Charging
(BC1.2) detection method and most Apple devices. These circuits are used to detect the attachment
and type of a USB charger and provide an interrupt output to indicate charger information is available
to be read from the device’s status registers via the serial interface. The USB2533 provides the battery
charging handshake and supports the following USB-IF BC1.2 charging profiles:
DCP: Dedicated Charging Port (Power brick with no data)
CDP: Charging Downstream Port (1.5A with data)
SDP: Standard Downstream Port (0.5A with data)
Custom profiles loaded via SMBus or OTP
The USB2533 provides an additional USB endpoint dedicated for use as a USB to I
2
C interface,
allowing external circuits or devices to be monitored, controlled, or configured via the USB interface.
Additionally, the USB2533 includes many powerful and unique features such as:
FlexConnect, which provides flexible connectivity options. The USB2533’s downstream port 1 can be
swapped with the upstream port, allowing master capable devices to control other devices on the hub.
MultiTRAK
TM
Technology, which utilizes a dedicated Transaction Translator (TT) per port to maintain
consistent full-speed data throughput regardless of the number of active downstream connections.
MultiTRAK
TM
outperforms conventional USB 2.0 hubs with a single TT in USB full-speed data transfers.
PortMap, which provides flexible port mapping and disable sequences. The downstream ports of a
USB2533 hub can be reordered or disabled in any sequence to support multiple platform designs with
minimum effort. For any port that is disabled, the USB2533 hub controllers automatically reorder the
remaining ports to match the USB host controller’s port numbering scheme.
PortSwap, which adds per-port programmability to USB differential-pair pin locations. PortSwap allows
direct alignment of USB signals (D+/D-) to connectors to avoid uneven trace length or crossing of the
USB differential signals on the PCB.
PHYBoost, which provides programmable levels of Hi-Speed USB
signal drive strength in the downstream port transceivers. PHYBoost
attempts to restore USB signal integrity in a compromised system
environment. The graphic on the right shows an example of Hi-
Speed USB eye diagrams before and after PHYBoost signal integrity
restoration.
VariSense, which controls the USB receiver sensitivity enabling programmable levels of USB signal
receive sensitivity. This capability allows operation in a sub-optimal system environment, such as when
a captive USB cable is used.
The USB2533 is available in commercial (0°C to +70°C) and industrial (-40°C to +85°C) temperature
range versions.

Chapter 1 General Description
The USB2533 is a low-power, OEM configurable, MTT (Multi-Transaction Translator) USB 2.0 hub
controller with 3 downstream ports and advanced features for embedded USB applications. The
USB2533 is fully compliant with the USB 2.0 Specification, USB 2.0 Link Power Management
Addendum and will attach to an upstream port as a Full-Speed hub or as a Full-/Hi-Speed hub. The
3-port hub supports Low-Speed, Full-Speed, and Hi-Speed (if operating as a Hi-Speed hub)
downstream devices on all of the enabled downstream ports.
The USB2533 has been specifically optimized for embedded systems where high performance, and
minimal BOM costs are critical design requirements. Standby mode power has been minimized and
reference clock inputs can be aligned to the customer’s specific application. Additionally, all required
resistors on the USB ports are integrated into the hub, including all series termination and pull-up/pull-
down resistors on the D+ and D– pins.
The USB2533 supports both upstream battery charger detection and downstream battery charging.
The USB2533 integrated battery charger detection circuitry supports the USB-IF Battery Charging
(BC1.2) detection method and most Apple devices. These circuits are used to detect the attachment
and type of a USB charger and provide an interrupt output to indicate charger information is available
to be read from the device’s status registers via the serial interface. The USB2533 provides the battery
charging handshake and supports the following USB-IF BC1.2 charging profiles:
DCP: Dedicated Charging Port (Power brick with no data)
CDP: Charging Downstream Port (1.5A with data)
SDP: Standard Downstream Port (0.5A with data)
Custom profiles loaded via SMBus or OTP
The USB2533 provides an additional USB endpoint dedicated for use as a USB to I
2
C interface,
allowing external circuits or devices to be monitored, controlled, or configured via the USB interface.
Additionally, the USB2533 includes many powerful and unique features such as:
FlexConnect, which provides flexible connectivity options. The USB2533’s downstream port 1 can be
swapped with the upstream port, allowing master capable devices to control other devices on the hub.
MultiTRAK
TM
Technology, which utilizes a dedicated Transaction Translator (TT) per port to maintain
consistent full-speed data throughput regardless of the number of active downstream connections.
MultiTRAK
TM
outperforms conventional USB 2.0 hubs with a single TT in USB full-speed data transfers.
PortMap, which provides flexible port mapping and disable sequences. The downstream ports of a
USB2533 hub can be reordered or disabled in any sequence to support multiple platform designs with
minimum effort. For any port that is disabled, the USB2533 hub controllers automatically reorder the
remaining ports to match the USB host controller’s port numbering scheme.
PortSwap, which adds per-port programmability to USB differential-pair pin locations. PortSwap allows
direct alignment of USB signals (D+/D-) to connectors to avoid uneven trace length or crossing of the
USB differential signals on the PCB.
PHYBoost, which provides programmable levels of Hi-Speed USB
signal drive strength in the downstream port transceivers. PHYBoost
attempts to restore USB signal integrity in a compromised system
environment. The graphic on the right shows an example of Hi-
Speed USB eye diagrams before and after PHYBoost signal integrity
restoration.
VariSense, which controls the USB receiver sensitivity enabling programmable levels of USB signal
receive sensitivity. This capability allows operation in a sub-optimal system environment, such as when
a captive USB cable is used.
The USB2533 is available in commercial (0°C to +70°C) and industrial (-40°C to +85°C) temperature
range versions.
