TUSB1310 Implementation Guide

Texas Instruments’ TUSB1310 is a single port, 5.0 Gbps USB 3.0 Physical Layer Transceiver available in a Lead-Free 175-Ball 12 x 12 nFBGA Package (175ZAY).
This application note describes general PCB layout guidelines for the TUSB1310. The Link Controller interfaces to the TUSB1310 are via a PIPE (16-bit wide operating and 250 MHz) and a ULPI (8-bit wide operating at 60 MHz) interface. The USB connector interfaces to the TUSB1310 via a USB 3.0 SuperSpeed USB Differential Pair (TX and RX) and USB 2.0 differential pair (DP/DM).This document is intended for developers familiar with high-speed PCB design and layout. Knowledge of the USB 3.0 specification and USB protocol is required as well. The following layout recommendations are not the only way to layout a design and are only provided as a guide. The preferences of the individual developer, requirements of the design, number of components in the circuit, as well as many other factors will influence each individual layout.
