SLLSF93A June 2019 – January 2025 TUSB8042A
PRODUCTION DATA
The downstream port 2 of the TUSB8042A is connected to a USB3 Type-A connector. With BATEN2 pin pulled up, Battery Charge support is enabled for Port 2. If Battery Charge support is not needed, then TI recommends to uninstall the pullup resistor on BATEN2. For ferrite bead used on the VBUS connection, a lower resistance is recommended due to noticeable IR drop during high current charging modes. The isolation between the Type-A connectors shield ground and signal ground pins is not required. Some applications may have better ESD/EMI performance when the grounds are shorted together.
