Capable of supporting USB 3.2 Gen2 data rates and DisplayPort 1.4a at 8.1Gbits per second, Analogix Semiconductor has developed the ANX7451 for next generation 10G mobile devices which require re-timers to drive appreciable distances.

ANX7451 guarantees high bandwidth data and video transport over long channels in smartphone system boards and external cable connections, adds the company.

The second generation 10Gbits per second USB-C re-timer guarantees high bandwidth data and video transport over long channels in smartphone system boards and external cable connections. It is offered a 3.3 x 4.8mm LGA-34 package and is based on SRIS and BLR architectures. It complies with USB 3.2 Appendix E requirements, working seamlessly through the daisy chaining of multiple re-timers.

The ANX7451 maintains signal integrity in flexible mobile system boards, as well as in the case of longer cable connection applications such as data synchronisation, docking stations, and tethered mobile virtual reality, says Analogix.

The ANX7451 re-timer recovers and reinstates high-speed signals at both ends of active cables spanning from two up to five metres. This allows low-cost cable solutions to meet the performance and compliance requirements of high-speed DisplayPort and USB 3.2 signals, adds Analogix.

Smartphone designs using application processors without an integrated USB-C power delivery (PD) port controller can use the ANX7411 companion, which integrates the logic to manage cable attach and detach, orientation, and role detection, providing full USB PD 3.0 support.

The ANX7451 is now sampling and will ship in mass production in Q3 2019.

Analogix Semiconductor designs and manufactures semiconductors for the digital multimedia market, from portable devices such as smartphones, notebooks, and VR head-mounted displays, to large, high-definition TVs and high-end graphics cards.

Product demonstrations of 10G re-timers for smartphones, as well as next generation SlimPort display controllers for AR/VR and dual-display solutions, are taking place at MWC at the Analogix meeting room in Hall 2 (2C31MR) at Fira Gran Via in Barcelona.
