9 Detailed Description

9.1 Overview

The HD3SS3415 is a high-speed passive switch offered in an industry standard 42-pin WQFN package available in a common footprint shared by several other vendors. The device is specified to operate from a single supply voltage of 3.3 V over the full industrial temperature range of 0°C to 70°C. The HD3SS3415 is a generic 4-CH high-speed mux/demux type of switch that can be used for routing high-speed signals between two different locations on a circuit board. Although it was designed specifically to address PCI Express Gen III applications, the HD3SS3415 will also support several other high-speed data protocols with a differential amplitude of < 1800 mVpp and a common-mode voltage of < 2.0 V, as with USB 3.0 and DisplayPort 1.2.

9.3 Feature Description

The HD3SS3415 has a single control line (SEL Pin) which can be used to control the signal path between Port A and either Port B or Port C. Theone select input (SEL) pin of the device can easily be controlled by an available GPIO pin within a system or from a microcontroller.
