Product details
Overview
STULPI01BTBR from STMicroelectronics is a high-speed USB 2.0 On-The-Go (OTG) ULPI transceiver in µTFBGA36 package, providing full PHY layer compliance with USB 2.0, OTG Supplement 1.0a, and ULPI Specification 1.1. It supports 480 Mbit/s High-speed, 12 Mbit/s Full-speed, and 1.5 Mbit/s Low-speed modes, integrates dual LDOs (3.3 V and 1.2 V), and enables SRP/HNP for dual-role operation in mobile battery-powered systems.
For engineers reviewing the STULPI01BTBR datasheet, STULPI01BTBR pinout, STULPI01BTBR application, or STULPI01BTBR equivalent, this transceiver is selected for low-power USB OTG interface design where ULPI bus timing, VBUS/ID detection accuracy, integrated termination, and power-down current <2 µA are critical selection criteria.
Technical Context
The device implements a complete USB 2.0 PHY with differential drivers/receivers for DP/DM, on-die VBUS comparators (4.4–4.75 V valid threshold), ID line detector (70 µA pull-up, 1 kΩ GND/100 kΩ FLOAT detection), and ULPI wrapper supporting synchronous 12-pin register-mapped control. Its oscillator input (XI) requires an external 19.2 or 26 MHz square wave clock with VDVIO amplitude and ≥4 ns edge rate.
Power management includes dedicated pins for power-down (CSn/PWRDN), reset (RESETn active-low), and external charge pump control (PSWn open-drain), alongside integrated overcurrent detection via VB_REF_FAULT with 20–95 mV trip threshold referenced to VBUS. The internal 1.2 V and 3.3 V regulators supply core logic and analog blocks independently.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| USB Speed Modes | 480 Mbit/s HS, 12 Mbit/s FS, 1.5 Mbit/s LS - enables full backward compatibility and high-bandwidth peripheral attachment |
| ULPI Compliance | Fully compliant with ULPI 1.1 register map and timing - ensures interoperability with UTMI+-based host/device ASICs |
| Supply Range | +3.0 V to +4.5 V VBAT - matches single-cell Li-ion/Li-poly battery systems without external regulation |
| Power-Down Current | 0.4–2 µA - extends battery life in suspend/idle states for portable OTG devices |
| VBUS Valid Threshold | 4.4–4.75 V - meets USB 2.0 specification for reliable host negotiation and session detection |
| ID Detection Logic | Distinguishes ID_GND (≤1 kΩ) vs ID_FLOAT (≥100 kΩ) - determines initial A/B device role per OTG standard |
| UART Mode Support | 2.7 V operation with D0/D1 as TXD/RXD - provides fallback serial debug interface independent of USB stack |
Pinout & Package
STULPI01BTBR is housed in a 36-ball µTFBGA package (ball pitch: 0.5 mm, body size: 3.5 × 3.5 mm), optimized for space-constrained mobile applications. All digital I/O operate at VDVIO (1.65–3.6 V), while DP, DM, ID, VBUS, and VB_REF_FAULT are 5 V tolerant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| D0–D7 | ULPI bidirectional data bus | Carry register reads/writes and UART TXD/RXD (D0/D1); referenced to VDVIO |
| CLK, DIR, NXT, STP | ULPI control signals | Provide synchronous 60 MHz interface timing (CLK out), direction control, and handshaking |
| RESETn | Asynchronous active-low reset | Forces hardware initialization; must be held low ≥1 µs after power stabilization |
| CSn/PWRDN | Chip select / power-down enable | Active-high assertion enters ultra-low-power mode (<2 µA); overrides all other states |
| DP / DM | USB 2.0 differential data pair | 5 V tolerant; include integrated HS termination and FS/LS pull-up/down resistors |
| ID | OTG role identification input | Reads connector ID state to determine A-device (host) or B-device (peripheral) at startup |
| VBUS | USB power bus monitor | Input with 40–100 kΩ impedance; feeds comparator for session valid (4.4–4.75 V) and overcurrent detection |
| VB_REF_FAULT | Overcurrent reference input | Accepts external OC signal or internal reference; trip window: 20–95 mV below VBUS |
| PSWn | External charge pump control | Open-drain output enabling higher VBUS sourcing capability beyond standard 500 mA |
| XI | External clock input | Accepts 19.2/26 MHz square wave; hysteresis ≥500 mV ensures noise immunity |
| 3V3V / 1V2V | Internal LDO outputs | Stable regulated supplies for analog/digital blocks; require local 1.5 µF bypassing |
| VDVIO | Digital I/O supply | Separate rail for ULPI interface; decoupling required per ball (100 nF–1 µF) |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated dual-LDO regulation | On-chip 3.3 V and 1.2 V supplies eliminate need for external regulators in compact designs |
| ULPI 1.1 register-compliant interface | Full 12-pin synchronous interface with standardized register map (0x00–0x1F) for seamless ASIC integration |
| OTG protocol support | Hardware-accelerated Session Request Protocol (SRP) and Host Negotiation Protocol (HNP) reduce firmware overhead |
| USB 2.0 short-circuit withstand | Built-in protection survives DP/DM shorts to VBUS/GND without latch-up or damage |
| Multi-mode power management | Five defined low-power states (Suspend, UART, Power-down, VIO OFF, Sleep) with sub-µA quiescent current |
| 5 V tolerant I/O on critical pins | DP, DM, ID, VBUS, VB_REF_FAULT tolerate up to 5.5 V - simplifies level-shifting and ESD protection |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar USB OTG transceiver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ISP1504HN | Single 3.3 V supply only; no integrated 1.2 V LDO; requires external 3.3 V regulator | Lacks UART mode and VBAT direct support; less suitable for battery-only systems | Prefer when system already provides clean 3.3 V and UART debug is unnecessary |
| USB3320C-EZK | Supports USB 2.0 + ULPI but adds USB 3.0 SS capability; larger QFN48 package | Higher pin count and cost; over-specified for pure USB 2.0 OTG use cases | Choose only if future USB 3.0 upgrade path or additional HS PHY channels are required |
Compared with ISP1504HN and USB3320C-EZK, STULPI01BTBR uniquely combines single-battery-input operation, integrated dual-LDOs, UART fallback mode, and µTFBGA36 footprint-making it optimal for cost- and space-sensitive mobile OTG endpoints where power efficiency and minimal external components are mandatory.

FAQ
What external components are mandatory for STULPI01BTBR operation?
Mandatory external components include: a 4.7 µF tank capacitor (CT) on VBUS, a 12 kΩ ±1% reference resistor (RREF) for overcurrent detection, and local bypass capacitors - 1 µF on VBAT, 1.5 µF on 3V3V, 1.5 µF on 1V2V, and 100 nF–1 µF on each VDVIO ball. No crystal is needed; XI accepts only external square-wave clock.
How does STULPI01BTBR handle USB host/peripheral role switching?
Role switching is managed via hardware-supported Session Request Protocol (SRP) and Host Negotiation Protocol (HNP). The ID pin detects physical connector type at startup to set initial role; subsequent HNP requests trigger controlled handover between A-device (host) and B-device (peripheral) without software reset or bus re-enumeration.
Can STULPI01BTBR operate without an external clock source?
No. STULPI01BTBR requires an external 19.2 MHz or 26 MHz square-wave clock applied to the XI pin. XO must be left floating or grounded; crystal oscillators are not supported. Clock rise/fall times must be ≤4 ns to meet ULPI timing requirements and avoid metastability in the CLK domain.
What is the function of the PSWn pin and how is it used in practice?
PSWn is an open-drain output that controls an external charge pump to boost VBUS sourcing capability beyond the standard 500 mA limit. When asserted low, it enables the pump to deliver higher currents for powering USB peripherals like HDDs or hubs - critical in portable host applications where wall adapters are unavailable.
