Product details
Overview
CYUSB3312-BVXC from Infineon is a USB 3.2 Gen 1 (5 Gbps) hub controller with four downstream ports, integrated ARM® Cortex®-M0 CPU (16 KB RAM, 32 KB ROM), USB Battery Charging v1.2 compliance per port, shared-link capability for embedded dual-device attachment per DS port, and industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C). It enables compact docking stations requiring simultaneous SS and USB 2.0 device connectivity.
For engineers reviewing the CYUSB3312-BVXC datasheet, CYUSB3312-BVXC pinout, CYUSB3312-BVXC application, or CYUSB3312-BVXC equivalent, key selection criteria include its 88-pin QFN package, pin-strap configurability for VID/PID and charging mode, ghost charging support without upstream host, and vendor-command-enabled USB-to-I2C bridge functionality for firmware updates.
Technical Context
The CYUSB3312-BVXC integrates two independent hub controllers: an SS hub supporting U0–U3 link power states and full-duplex 5 Gbps operation, and a USB 2.0 hub with four dedicated transaction translators (Multi-TT), L0–L3 power management, and suspend/resume signaling. Its on-chip Cortex®-M0 executes runtime configuration, BC v1.2 charging state machines, and shared-link arbitration logic.
It implements configurable port control including ganged/individual power switching, overcurrent detection, VBUS monitoring, and LED status signaling (SS, USB 2.0, suspend). Configuration is supported via pin-straps (e.g., number of active ports, DCP enable), I2C EEPROM, or eFuse - with no external configuration memory required in default mode.
Key Specifications

Pinout & Package
88-pin QFN (10 mm × 10 mm × 1.0 mm body, 0.5 mm pitch), thermally enhanced with exposed thermal pad. Pinout validated per Infineon datasheet Rev. *V, Section 5 (Pin Information).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| US_DP / US_DM | Upstream differential pair | Connects to host controller; carries bidirectional SS and USB 2.0 traffic |
| DS1_DP / DS1_DM … DS4_DP / DS4_DM | Downstream differential pairs | Each pair supports concurrent SS and USB 2.0 signaling via shared-link architecture |
| VDDIO_33 / VDDIO_12 | Power supply rails | 3.3 V I/O and 1.2 V core supply; decoupling required per datasheet layout guidelines |

Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Shared Link Architecture | Each DS port connects simultaneously to one SS device and one removable USB 2.0 device-enabling up to eight total endpoints in embedded systems |
| Ghost Charging | Emulates Dedicated Charging Port (DCP) on all DS ports when upstream host is absent-enabling battery top-up without host connection |
| Vendor Command USB-to-I2C Bridge | Enables in-system programming of external I2C EEPROM or ASSP firmware via USB upstream port-eliminating need for separate debug interface |
| Pin-Strap Configuration | Eliminates external configuration memory: sets VID/PID, charging mode, active port count, and power switch polarity at boot using resistor straps |
| ACA-Dock Ready | Supports Accessory Charger Adapter Dock mode-enabling simultaneous data transfer and charging when smartphone/tablet acts as BC v1.2 host |
Applications
| Docking Station | Embedded Industrial Controller |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Compact USB-C dock connecting laptop to multiple peripherals including SSD, keyboard, and display adapter. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Central USB 3.2 Gen 1 hub managing concurrent 5 Gbps storage and 480 Mbps HID traffic with dynamic power allocation.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: USB 3.2 Gen 1 hub with integrated SS/USB 2.0 PHYs and LED indicators for real-time port status feedback. Use Value: Pin-strap configuration eliminates BOM cost of EEPROM; suspend/resume signaling preserves system power state across display sleep cycles. |
Use Scenario: Cable TV set-top box adding USB audio DAC, IR blaster, and firmware update dongle via single expansion header. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Configurable hub enabling ACA-Dock mode-allowing tablet-based remote control while charging and streaming audio simultaneously. Use Value: Vendor-command I2C bridge permits field firmware updates of connected DAC without disassembly or additional programming hardware. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar USB 3.2 Gen 1 hub controller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| CYUSB3314-BVXC | Same architecture but supports 4 DS ports with individual power switching (vs. ganged/individual in CYUSB3312); includes port indicators | Preferred where per-port power fault isolation and visual status feedback are required | Select CYUSB3314 if discrete overcurrent protection per port and LED status visibility are mandatory |
| CYUSB3324-BVXC | Supports 4 DS ports plus ACA-Dock mode; lacks pin-strap configuration (relies on I2C/eFuse only) | Suitable for designs requiring smartphone-as-host docking with strict BOM constraints on strap resistors | Choose CYUSB3324 only when ACA-Dock is primary use case and external configuration memory is acceptable |
Compared with CYUSB3314-BVXC and CYUSB3324-BVXC, the CYUSB3312-BVXC uniquely balances pin-strap flexibility, ghost charging, and shared-link capability in an 88-QFN package-making it optimal for space-constrained embedded hubs needing zero-configuration deployment and dual-device per port support.

FAQ
Does CYUSB3312-BVXC require an external EEPROM for basic operation?
No. The CYUSB3312-BVXC supports full pin-strap configuration for VID/PID, charging mode, active port count, and power switch polarity-enabling zero-external-memory boot. An I2C EEPROM is optional for advanced customization or field firmware updates via vendor commands.
Can CYUSB3312-BVXC support Apple charging on all downstream ports?
Yes. Per Infineon's datasheet Section 4.2 and Table 1, CYUSB3312-BVXC explicitly supports Apple charging on all four downstream ports as part of its USB BC v1.2 compliance-including DCP emulation and voltage-divider signature modes required for iOS device recognition.
What is the function of the "shared link" feature in CYUSB3312-BVXC?
The shared link feature enables each downstream port to concurrently connect one SuperSpeed (5 Gbps) device and one USB 2.0 (480 Mbps) device using time-multiplexed PHY resources. This eliminates the need for separate connectors or ports in embedded systems-e.g., a single USB-C port serving both an SSD and a keyboard.
Is CYUSB3312-BVXC WHQL-certified for Windows operating systems?
Yes. The CYUSB3312-BVXC shares the Microsoft WHQL certification of the EZ-USB™ HX3 family, covering Windows XP through Windows 8.1. Driver support for Windows 10/11 is provided via inbox drivers compliant with the USB 3.0 hub class specification, confirmed in Infineon Application Note AN92442.
