Fairchild Semiconductor Announces Industry's Smallest ''Hi-Speed USB 2.0'' Switch in MicroPak Chip Scale Package -- Ideal for Cell Phone Designs.SOUTH PORTLAND, Maine South Portland is a city in Cumberland County, Maine, United States. As of the 2000 census, the city population was 23,324. Geography South Portland is located at (43.631549, -70.272724)GR1. -- Wide Greater Than 720 MHz (MegaHertZ) One million cycles per second. It is used to measure the transmission speed of electronic devices, including channels, buses and the computer's internal clock. A one-megahertz clock (1 MHz) means some number of bits (16, 32, 64, etc. Bandwidth Exceeds 3rd Order Harmonic for Virtually Transparent Switching; MicroPak Package Reduces Footprint by 68% Compared to Closest Competitor Fairchild Semiconductor's (NYSE NYSE See: New York Stock Exchange :FCS FCS - Frame Check Sequence ) FSUSB23 is the smallest single-port USB USB in full Universal Serial Bus Type of serial bus that allows peripheral devices (disks, modems, printers, digitizers, data gloves, etc.) to be easily connected to a computer. 2.0 "Hi-Speed" (480 Mbps) analog switch in a MicroPak(TM) chip scale package A chip scale package (CSP) (sometimes, chip-scale package with a hyphen) is a type of integrated circuit chip carrier. According to the IPC, to qualify as chip scale, the package must have an area no greater than 1.2 times that of the die that is being packaged. (CSP (1) (Certified Systems Professional) An earlier award for successful completion of an ICCP examination in systems development. See ICCP. (2) (Commerce Service P ). Its compact packaging, combined with very low power consumption (less than 1micro amp) and wide bandwidth (greater than 720 MHz) operation, make it an ideal high-performance, space-saving USB 2.0 switch for today's multi-functional cell phones. Fairchild's 1.6 mm x 2.1 mm MicroPak 10-terminal chip scale package delivers a 68% footprint reduction compared to typical competitive switches (3.36 mm2 vs. 10.5 mm2). Additional applications for the FSUSB23 include PDAs, MP3 players, digital cameras and laptops. The FSUSB23's ability to switch Hi-Speed USB signals allows it to comfortably pass the eye diagram compliance for AC and DC performance to meet the USB 2.0 high-speed standard. It also retains complete USB 1.1 full-speed (12 Mbps) reverse compatibility for use in a range of applications. "Signal integrity and low power consumption are especially critical considerations in cell phone applications," said Jerry Johnston, Fairchild product manager for Analog Switches. "The FSUSB23's wide bandwidth meets these concerns by easily passing 3rd order harmonic frequencies with virtually undetectable levels of distortion and jitter A flicker or fluctuation in a transmission signal or display image. The term is used in several ways, but it always refers to some offset of time and space from the norm. For example, in a network transmission, jitter would be a bit arriving either ahead or behind a standard clock cycle . Additionally, the convergence of more features and connectivity into increasingly smaller ultra-portables is driving the demand for Hi-Speed USB switches in the smallest available packages. The combined performance attributes and ultra-compact packaging of the FSUSB23 offer designers the flexibility they need to solve their design challenges." Other key design features of the FSUSB23 include: --Higher 7 kV Electrostatic Discharge (ESD (1) (Electronic Software Distribution) Distributing new software and upgrades via the network rather than individual installations on each machine. See ESL. ) vs. typical 2 kV ESD in competing components provides greater application robustness; --6 Ohms typical On Resistance (RON) improves noise margin; --Non-adjacent channel crosstalk (-43dB at 250 Mhz) minimizes signal interference; and --Choice of 16-terminal DQFN DQFN Depopulated Very-Thin Quad Flat-Pack No-Leads package offers better suitability for notebooks and other larger portable applications. The FSUSB23 complements Fairchild's expanding line of high-performance USB switch solutions providing the industry's best combination of wide bandwidth, high signal quality and compact packaging. Other USB-compliant products include the FSUSB22, a low-power two-port analog switch also for Hi-Speed USB compliance, and the FSUSB11, a low-power, single-port full-speed USB switch. The lead (Pb)-free FSUSB23 meets or exceeds the requirements of the joint IPC/JEDEC standard J-STD-020B and is compliant with European Union European Union (EU), name given since the ratification (Nov., 1993) of the Treaty of European Union, or Maastricht Treaty, to the European Community requirements.
