TI TUSB1104 is a 10 Gbps USB 3.2 x2 linear redriver for USB-C applications enabling up to 20 Gbps total data throughput.

The TUSB1104 is intended to reside between a Host and a USB-C receptacle or between a USB device and a USB-C receptacle. The TUSB1104 will automatically detect whether or not the interface is operating at USB 3.2 x2 or x1. If it determines the USB interface is operating at USB 3.2 x1, then it will disable the unused lane to conserve power.

TUSB1104 configured for USB 3.2 x2 mode will determine if the link is operating in USB 3.2 x2 or in USB 3.1 x1. If the link is USB 3.2 x2, then TUSB1104 will operate with one port operating as a USB 3.2 x1 port and the remaining port following the lead of the other port. The port functioning as a USB 3.1 x1 port is called the config lane. The determination of the config lane is based solely on the Type-C orientation. For normal orientation (FLIP = L), Port 1 is the config lane. For the flipped orientation (FLIP = H), Port 2 is the config lane. Table 2-2 shows the selection of config lane.
