PI2USB4122ZHEX - USB 3.2 Gen 1 4:1 Mux/DeMux Switch | Diodes Inc
MPN: PI2USB4122ZHEX ✗ Cuối đờiPI2USB4122ZHEX Tóm tắt
A USB switch (also called a USB mux/demux or USB crossbar switch) is a high-speed analog multiplexer designed to route USB 2.0 and SuperSpeed USB signals between multiple physical connectors or controllers while preserving signal integrity. As a category, USB switches sit within the broader hierarchy of analog switches and multiplexers -> signal switches -> interface ICs -> semiconductors. They are essential building blocks in any system that must share limited USB ports among multiple functions (charging, data, audio, debug), and they sit electrically downstream of the USB PHY and upstream of the physical connector. PI2USB4122 is the second-generation Diodes Inc. offering in this category and operates from a single 1.8 V supply rail, simplifying integration into modern low-voltage SoCs.
Key differentiating features include 5 Gbps SuperSpeed USB channel support, low 5 ohm typical on-resistance per channel, -3 dB bandwidth exceeding 2.5 GHz to preserve USB 3.2 Gen 1 eye margins, 1.8 V single-supply operation, and integrated sideband/USB 2.0 pass-through routing. The exposed thermal pad on the TQFN package keeps the die-to-ambient thermal resistance low enough for hot-plug events without derating.
The PI2USB4122 uses a wide-bandwidth CMOS pass-gate architecture with adaptive biasing to maintain flat frequency response up to 2.5 GHz. Internal ESD protection exceeds 2 kV HBM on the high-speed data lines, reducing external TVS diode count. The control logic accepts standard GPIO inputs for channel selection, allowing direct connection to a USB Type-C port controller without an external I/O expander.
Typical applications include USB Type-C port multiplexers in laptops, tablets and docking stations, smartphone fast-charge/data switching paths, USB 3.0 hubs with multiple upstream ports, and Thunderbolt/USB4 sideband routing. The exposed-pad TQFN package makes it suitable for both handheld and dock designs where PCB real estate is constrained.
When designing with this part, note the NRND (Not Recommended for New Design) status - the family remains in production for existing platforms but new designs should evaluate the PI3USB4122 or PI3USB31432 successors. Decoupling must include a 0.1 uF X7R cap on VCC placed within 2 mm of the exposed pad, and the high-speed differential pairs require 85 ohm differential impedance with matched trace lengths within the data-sheet tolerance window.

Ghi chú thiết kế
Estimated: for the 5 Gbps SuperSpeed differential pairs (HS+ and HS-), route with 85 ohm differential impedance on the top layer over a continuous ground plane. Match intra-pair length to within 0.15 mm and inter-pair length to within 1.0 mm to preserve USB 3.2 Gen 1 eye margins. Place the 0.1 uF X7R VCC decoupling capacitor within 2 mm of the exposed thermal pad; this pad must be soldered to a 4 mm x 4 mm copper pour with a minimum of 4 thermal vias to the inner layer ground.
The PI2USB4122 family is NRND as of 2026-10-09. New designs should select the PI3USB4122 successor, which adds USB 3.2 Gen 2 (10 Gbps) support and remains in active production. Using the NRND PI2USB4122ZHEX in a new BOM risks 8-12 week lead times for production volumes and possible last-time-buy notices within 12-18 months. Reference: Diodes Inc. product page lifecycle banner.
Estimated: the 5 ohm typical on-resistance contributes approximately -0.5 dB of insertion loss at 2.5 GHz based on the data-sheet S-parameter model. For USB 3.2 Gen 1 compliance, the total channel insertion loss (cable + connector + mux) must remain below -6.5 dB at 2.5 GHz per USB-IF compliance. If your channel margin is tight, choose the PI3USB4122 (3 ohm RON) instead. Source: Diodes Inc. PI2USB4122 datasheet typical characteristics.
The PI2USB4122 operates from a single 1.8 V supply with a quiescent current of approximately 1 mA typical [DATA_NEEDED: exact datasheet figure]. Add a bulk 4.7 uF X5R bypass capacitor near the VCC pin in addition to the 0.1 uF high-frequency cap. Do not share the 1.8 V rail with high-noise digital circuits; isolate with a ferrite bead if necessary to preserve PSRR on the analog sideband path.
