Pericom USB 3.0 ReDriver™ - Solves Signal Integrity Issues

 

With the rapid deployment of USB 3.0 across all systems, the 5Gb USB 3.0 signal introduces uncontrollable noise, or signal attenuation, causing the signal to degrade, which can lead to non compliant signals at the connector or at the end of the cable. This degraded signal quality of the USB 3.0 “signal eye” during high-speed signal switching is also more suseptable to crosstalk during transmitting and receiving between the host and peripheral end point devices.

 

Pericom's USB-IF compliant* USB 3.0 ReDriver™/Repeater technology offsets overall signal insertion loss and solves the signal integrity (SI) issues of trace/cable extension. The first wave of USB 3.0 adoption is spreading across Ultrabook, Notebook, Server, Tablet, and PC platforms, and is rapidly being deployed in Smart Phone, Digital Camera, Video Camcoder and other consumer electronic devices. The USB 3.0 ReDriver/Repeater solution is also being adopted on Automotive/Infotainment/Camera/Sensor and Surveillance Systems. Pericom's USB 3.0 ReDriver/Repeater technology enables 100% cable link-up to peripheral devices without any critical system down time, and assures the platform meets USB 3.0 compliance standards.

Benefits of Pericom USB 3.0 ReDriver™
