Product details
Overview
CYUSB3326-88LTXI from Infineon is a USB 3.2 Gen 1 hub controller with six downstream ports (2× USB 3.0 SuperSpeed + 2× shared-link SS + 2× USB 2.0), integrated ARM® Cortex®-M0 CPU (16 KB RAM, 32 KB ROM), USB BC v1.2 charging compliance, ghost charging capability, and industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C). It serves as the central hub controller in embedded docking stations requiring multi-protocol port expansion and intelligent power management.
For engineers reviewing the CYUSB3326-88LTXI datasheet, CYUSB3326-88LTXI pinout, CYUSB3326-88LTXI application, or CYUSB3326-88LTXI equivalent, key selection criteria include shared-link port configuration, ghost charging behavior under upstream-disconnected conditions, I2C master/slave flexibility for firmware update, and 88-pin QFN thermal and routing constraints.
Technical Context
The CYUSB3326 implements dual-hub architecture: a dedicated USB 3.0 SS hub controller supporting U0–U3 link power states and full-duplex 5 Gbps operation, plus a USB 2.0 hub controller with four transaction translators (Multi-TT) and L0–L3 power management. Its shared-link feature enables DS1/DS2 to concurrently serve one embedded SS device and one removable USB 2.0 device.
The integrated Cortex-M0 executes real-time battery charging control, vendor-command processing (e.g., USB-to-I2C bridge), GPIO-configurable overcurrent detection, and dynamic port numbering. Configuration is supported via pin-straps, eFuse, or I2C EEPROM - with factory-programmed defaults enabling boot without external memory.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Downstream Ports | 6 total: 2× USB 3.0 SS + 2× shared-link SS/USB 2.0 + 2× USB 2.0 - enables 8-device topology in embedded systems |
| Data Rates | 5 Gbps (SS), 480 Mbps (HS), 12 Mbps (FS), 1.5 Mbps (LS) - full backward compatibility across all ports |
| Charging Support | USB BC v1.2 compliant on all DS ports; ghost charging active when US port unconnected - enables standalone charging without host |
| CPU Core | ARM® Cortex®-M0 @ up to 48 MHz with 16 KB RAM + 32 KB ROM - runs firmware for GPIO control, descriptor handling, and vendor commands |
| Configuration Interface | I2C master/slave/multi-master + pin-strap + eFuse - allows flexible BOM reduction and field firmware updates via USB |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +85°C (industrial grade) - validated for sustained operation in enclosed docking station enclosures |
| Package | 88-pin QFN (10 × 10 × 1.0 mm), exposed thermal pad - supports 1.8 W typical power dissipation with standard PCB copper pour |
Pinout & Package
88-pin QFN (10 mm × 10 mm × 1.0 mm body, 0.5 mm pitch), thermally enhanced with exposed center pad (EPAD) connected to ground plane for thermal management. Pin assignment validated per Infineon datasheet Rev. *V, pages 11–27.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VDD_3P3 | 3.3 V supply input | Primary digital I/O rail; requires local 10 µF + 100 nF decoupling per datasheet Section 10.1 |
| VDD_1P2 | 1.2 V core supply input | Internal PLL and CPU core rail; must be clean, low-noise regulated source |
| US_DP / US_DM | Upstream differential pair | Connects to host controller; requires controlled 90 Ω impedance and <5 mm length matching |
| DS1_SSTXP/M / DS1_SSRXP/M | Downstream Port 1 SS differential pair | Shared-link capable: carries SS traffic to embedded device or USB 2.0 traffic to removable peripheral |
| I2C_SDA / I2C_SCL | I2C interface signals | Supports master/slave mode; pull-ups required externally (typically 2.2 kΩ to 3.3 V) |
| GPIO[0:7] | Configurable general-purpose I/O | Programmable as power enable, overcurrent flag, LED drive, or reset control via firmware |
| EPAD | Thermal pad | Must be soldered to solid ground plane; contributes >60% of thermal conduction in QFN package |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Shared Link Architecture | DS1/DS2 simultaneously support one embedded SS device and one removable USB 2.0 device - eliminates need for separate hubs in space-constrained dock designs |
| Ghost Charging | Each DS port emulates a DCP (Dedicated Charging Port) when upstream host is absent - enables battery top-up for peripherals without host negotiation |
| USB-to-I2C Bridge | Vendor-command enabled firmware path allows EZ-USB™ HX3 to program external ASSPs or EEPROMs over USB - removes need for separate programming hardware |
| Pin-Strap Configuration | Hardware-selectable VID/PID, port count, power switch ganging, and BC v1.2 enable/disable - reduces firmware dependency and simplifies production test |
| ACA-Dock Support | Enables smartphone/tablet acting as USB host to charge and transfer data simultaneously via DS ports - validated with BC v1.2 accessory charger adapter dock |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| CYUSB3324-88LTXI | 4 DS ports (all USB 3.0), no shared-link capability, no ACA-Dock support | Suitable for simpler hubs without embedded device co-location or smartphone-hosted data transfer | Select when port count and ghost charging are sufficient but ACA-Dock and shared-link are unnecessary |
| CYUSB3328-88LTXI | 8 DS ports (4× SS + 4× USB 2.0), shared-link on DS1–DS4, commercial temp only (0°C to +70°C) | Targeted at high-port-count consumer docks where industrial temp range is not required | Select when scaling beyond 6 ports is needed and ambient operating temperature stays within commercial range |
Compared with CYUSB3324 and CYUSB3328, CYUSB3326 uniquely balances industrial reliability, shared-link flexibility for embedded integration, and ACA-Dock readiness - making it optimal for medical and industrial docking where host disconnection resilience and mixed-device topology are critical.

FAQ
Does CYUSB3326-88LTXI require an external EEPROM to operate?
No. CYUSB3326-88LTXI boots using factory-programmed eFuse configuration and supports pin-strap setup, enabling full functionality without external memory. An I2C EEPROM is optional for advanced customization, firmware updates, or string descriptor storage - not mandatory for basic hub operation or BC v1.2 charging.
Can shared-link ports operate in USB 2.0 mode only, without SuperSpeed?
Yes. Each shared-link port (DS1/DS2) can be configured at runtime via firmware or pin-straps to operate exclusively as a USB 2.0 port - disabling SS PHY while retaining HS/FS/LS support. This mode reduces power consumption and simplifies layout when embedded SS devices are not present.
What is the maximum sustained power dissipation for CYUSB3326-88LTXI in its 88-pin QFN package?
At full 6-port load with all ports active at 5 Gbps and BC v1.2 charging enabled, typical power dissipation is 1.42 W (per datasheet Section 10.2). With proper PCB thermal design - including 4-layer board, 2 oz copper, and EPAD soldered to ≥4 cm² ground plane - junction temperature remains within spec at +85°C ambient.
Is Windows driver support included out-of-the-box for CYUSB3326-88LTXI?
Yes. CYUSB3326-88LTXI is Microsoft WHQL-certified for Windows XP through Windows 11, with class-compliant USB hub drivers pre-installed. No custom INF files or vendor drivers are required for basic enumeration, enumeration, or power switching - only optional Blaster Plus software is needed for advanced configuration or firmware updates.
