Fairchild Semiconductor (NYSE: FCS) brings designers of cell
phones, PDAs and MP3 players a USB accessory switch – the smallest
that integrates all of the key multi-media functionality into a low
profile UMLP package (1.8mm x 2.6mm x 0.55mm). The FSA800 offers
built-in charger detection, 28V of overvoltage tolerance, built-in
termination resistors, and negative swing capability. The
integration of this rich functionality in a compact package
simplifies and reduces external components in portable designs.
The FSA800’s rich functionality includes:
- Built-in charger detection,
simplifying design.
- Capability of handling USB data,
stereo and mono audio, microphone and UART data all on a common
connector port and is the only switch able to handle microphone
data.
- Low on capacitance (7pf),
allowing data to move swiftly along the signal path.
- Built-in termination resistors
that eliminate the pop noise that frequently happens when plugging
in an audio jack in a cell phone or MP3 player.
- 28V of over-voltage tolerance on
the VBUS pin to ensure robust protection against high voltage
events.
- Negative swing capability so
that audio signals can swing below ground, eliminating the need for
AC coupling capacitors. Many alternate solutions do not have this
capability and two capacitors must be added into the design.
The FSA800 is part of a comprehensive portfolio of Fairchild’s
USB solutions. These switches are ideal for USB port isolation,
connector sharing and signal multiplexing. They are often used to
share or route USB ports and to isolate Flash memory / uDisk
removable devices. The switches are designed to be compliant with
USB2.0 Full Speed (FS) and Hi-Speed (HS) with bandwidths in excess
of 720MHz.
