INTRODUCTION

1.1

General Description

Microchip’s USB333x is a family of High Speed USB 2.0 Transceivers that provides a physical layer (PHY) solution well-
suited for portable electronic devices. Both commercial and industrial temperature applications are supported.

 

Each model in the USB333x family may use a 60MHz reference clock or the model-number specific reference clock as
shown on the 

Product Identification System

 page. The USB3330 and USB3333 can support several different frequen-

cies driven on the REFCLK pin. The configuration of the frequency selection pins set the desired reference frequency. 
Several advanced features make the USB333x the transceiver of choice by reducing both eBOM part count and printed
circuit board (PCB) area. Outstanding ESD robustness eliminates the need for external ESD protection devices in typ-
ical applications. The internal Over-Voltage Protection circuit (OVP) protects the USB333x from voltages up to 30V on
the VBUS pin. By using a reference clock from the Link, the USB333x removes the cost of a dedicated crystal reference
from the design. The USB333x includes integrated 3.3V and 1.8V regulators, making it possible to operate the device
from a single power supply.
The USB333x is optimized for use in portable applications where a low operating current and standby current is essen-
tial. The USB333x also supports the Link Power Management protocol (LPM) to further reduce USB operating currents.
The USB333x also includes integrated battery charger detection circuitry. These circuits are used to detect the attach-
ment of a USB Charger as described in 

Section 5.8

. By sensing the attachment to a USB Charger, a product using the

USB333x can draw more than 500mA from the USB connector.
The USB333x meets all of the electrical requirements for a High Speed USB Host, Device, or an On-the-Go (OTG) trans-
ceiver. In addition to the supporting USB signaling, the USB333x also provides USB UART mode and, in versions with
the integrated USB switch, USB Audio mode.
USB333x uses the industry standard UTMI+ Low Pin Interface (ULPI) to connect the USB PHY to the Link. ULPI uses
a method of in-band signaling and status byte transfers between the Link and PHY to facilitate a USB session with only
twelve pins.
The USB333x uses Microchip’s “wrapper-less” technology to implement the ULPI interface. This “wrapper-less” tech-
nology allows the PHY to achieve a low latency transmit and receive time. Microchip’s low latency transceiver allows an
existing UTMI Link to be reused by adding a UTMI to ULPI bridge. By adding a bridge to the ASIC the existing and
proven UTMI Link IP can be reused.
Versions of the USB333x with the integrated USB switch enable a single USB port of connection.

1.2

Block Diagrams

In USB Audio mode, a switch connects the DP pin to the SPK_R pin, and another switch connects he DM pin to the
SPK_L

 pin. These switches are shown in the lower left-hand corner of 

Figure 5-1

.The USB333x can be configured to

enter USB Audio mode as described in 

Section 6.7.2

. In addition, these switches are on when the RESETB pin of the

USB333x is asserted. The USB Audio mode enables audio signaling from a single USB port of connection, and the
switches may also be used to connect Full Speed USB from another transceiver to the USB connector.

USB333x

The USB333x includes an integrated 3.3V LDO regulator that is used to generate 3.3V from power applied to the VBAT
pin. The voltage on the VBAT pin can range from 3.0 to 5.5V. The regulator dropout voltage is less than 100mV which
allows the PHY to continue USB signaling when the voltage on VBAT drops to 3.0V. The USB transceiver will continue
to operate at lower voltages, although some parameters may be outside the limits of the USB-IF specification for Full
Speed USB operation. The VBAT and VDD33 pins should never be connected together.
In USB UART mode, the USB333x DP and DM pins are redefined to enable pass-through of asynchronous serial data.
The USB333x will enter UART mode when programmed, as described in 

Section 6.7.1

.

INTRODUCTION

1.1

General Description

Microchip’s USB333x is a family of High Speed USB 2.0 Transceivers that provides a physical layer (PHY) solution well-
suited for portable electronic devices. Both commercial and industrial temperature applications are supported.

 

Each model in the USB333x family may use a 60MHz reference clock or the model-number specific reference clock as
shown on the 

Product Identification System

 page. The USB3330 and USB3333 can support several different frequen-

cies driven on the REFCLK pin. The configuration of the frequency selection pins set the desired reference frequency. 
Several advanced features make the USB333x the transceiver of choice by reducing both eBOM part count and printed
circuit board (PCB) area. Outstanding ESD robustness eliminates the need for external ESD protection devices in typ-
ical applications. The internal Over-Voltage Protection circuit (OVP) protects the USB333x from voltages up to 30V on
the VBUS pin. By using a reference clock from the Link, the USB333x removes the cost of a dedicated crystal reference
from the design. The USB333x includes integrated 3.3V and 1.8V regulators, making it possible to operate the device
from a single power supply.
The USB333x is optimized for use in portable applications where a low operating current and standby current is essen-
tial. The USB333x also supports the Link Power Management protocol (LPM) to further reduce USB operating currents.
The USB333x also includes integrated battery charger detection circuitry. These circuits are used to detect the attach-
ment of a USB Charger as described in 

Section 5.8

. By sensing the attachment to a USB Charger, a product using the

USB333x can draw more than 500mA from the USB connector.
The USB333x meets all of the electrical requirements for a High Speed USB Host, Device, or an On-the-Go (OTG) trans-
ceiver. In addition to the supporting USB signaling, the USB333x also provides USB UART mode and, in versions with
the integrated USB switch, USB Audio mode.
USB333x uses the industry standard UTMI+ Low Pin Interface (ULPI) to connect the USB PHY to the Link. ULPI uses
a method of in-band signaling and status byte transfers between the Link and PHY to facilitate a USB session with only
twelve pins.
The USB333x uses Microchip’s “wrapper-less” technology to implement the ULPI interface. This “wrapper-less” tech-
nology allows the PHY to achieve a low latency transmit and receive time. Microchip’s low latency transceiver allows an
existing UTMI Link to be reused by adding a UTMI to ULPI bridge. By adding a bridge to the ASIC the existing and
proven UTMI Link IP can be reused.
Versions of the USB333x with the integrated USB switch enable a single USB port of connection.

Block Diagrams

In USB Audio mode, a switch connects the DP pin to the SPK_R pin, and another switch connects he DM pin to the
SPK_L

 pin. These switches are shown in the lower left-hand corner of 

Figure 5-1

.The USB333x can be configured to

enter USB Audio mode as described in 

Section 6.7.2

. In addition, these switches are on when the RESETB pin of the

USB333x is asserted. The USB Audio mode enables audio signaling from a single USB port of connection, and the
switches may also be used to connect Full Speed USB from another transceiver to the USB connector.

USB333x

The USB333x includes an integrated 3.3V LDO regulator that is used to generate 3.3V from power applied to the VBAT
pin. The voltage on the VBAT pin can range from 3.0 to 5.5V. The regulator dropout voltage is less than 100mV which
allows the PHY to continue USB signaling when the voltage on VBAT drops to 3.0V. The USB transceiver will continue
to operate at lower voltages, although some parameters may be outside the limits of the USB-IF specification for Full
Speed USB operation. The VBAT and VDD33 pins should never be connected together.
In USB UART mode, the USB333x DP and DM pins are redefined to enable pass-through of asynchronous serial data.
The USB333x will enter UART mode when programmed, as described in 

Section 6.7.1

.

INTRODUCTION

1.1

General Description

Microchip’s USB333x is a family of High Speed USB 2.0 Transceivers that provides a physical layer (PHY) solution well-
suited for portable electronic devices. Both commercial and industrial temperature applications are supported.

 

Each model in the USB333x family may use a 60MHz reference clock or the model-number specific reference clock as
shown on the 

Product Identification System

 page. The USB3330 and USB3333 can support several different frequen-

cies driven on the REFCLK pin. The configuration of the frequency selection pins set the desired reference frequency. 
Several advanced features make the USB333x the transceiver of choice by reducing both eBOM part count and printed
circuit board (PCB) area. Outstanding ESD robustness eliminates the need for external ESD protection devices in typ-
ical applications. The internal Over-Voltage Protection circuit (OVP) protects the USB333x from voltages up to 30V on
the VBUS pin. By using a reference clock from the Link, the USB333x removes the cost of a dedicated crystal reference
from the design. The USB333x includes integrated 3.3V and 1.8V regulators, making it possible to operate the device
from a single power supply.
The USB333x is optimized for use in portable applications where a low operating current and standby current is essen-
tial. The USB333x also supports the Link Power Management protocol (LPM) to further reduce USB operating currents.
The USB333x also includes integrated battery charger detection circuitry. These circuits are used to detect the attach-
ment of a USB Charger as described in 

Section 5.8

. By sensing the attachment to a USB Charger, a product using the

USB333x can draw more than 500mA from the USB connector.
The USB333x meets all of the electrical requirements for a High Speed USB Host, Device, or an On-the-Go (OTG) trans-
ceiver. In addition to the supporting USB signaling, the USB333x also provides USB UART mode and, in versions with
the integrated USB switch, USB Audio mode.
USB333x uses the industry standard UTMI+ Low Pin Interface (ULPI) to connect the USB PHY to the Link. ULPI uses
a method of in-band signaling and status byte transfers between the Link and PHY to facilitate a USB session with only
twelve pins.
The USB333x uses Microchip’s “wrapper-less” technology to implement the ULPI interface. This “wrapper-less” tech-
nology allows the PHY to achieve a low latency transmit and receive time. Microchip’s low latency transceiver allows an
existing UTMI Link to be reused by adding a UTMI to ULPI bridge. By adding a bridge to the ASIC the existing and
proven UTMI Link IP can be reused.
Versions of the USB333x with the integrated USB switch enable a single USB port of connection.

Block Diagrams

In USB Audio mode, a switch connects the DP pin to the SPK_R pin, and another switch connects he DM pin to the
SPK_L

 pin. These switches are shown in the lower left-hand corner of 

Figure 5-1

.The USB333x can be configured to

enter USB Audio mode as described in 

Section 6.7.2

. In addition, these switches are on when the RESETB pin of the

USB333x is asserted. The USB Audio mode enables audio signaling from a single USB port of connection, and the
switches may also be used to connect Full Speed USB from another transceiver to the USB connector.

USB333x

The USB333x includes an integrated 3.3V LDO regulator that is used to generate 3.3V from power applied to the VBAT
pin. The voltage on the VBAT pin can range from 3.0 to 5.5V. The regulator dropout voltage is less than 100mV which
allows the PHY to continue USB signaling when the voltage on VBAT drops to 3.0V. The USB transceiver will continue
to operate at lower voltages, although some parameters may be outside the limits of the USB-IF specification for Full
Speed USB operation. The VBAT and VDD33 pins should never be connected together.
In USB UART mode, the USB333x DP and DM pins are redefined to enable pass-through of asynchronous serial data.
The USB333x will enter UART mode when programmed, as described in 

Section 6.7.1

.
