概要
Description
USB2512BT/M2 is a 12-port USB 2.0 hub controller IC used to add USB hubs to a system. It provides one upstream port to connect to a host and 12 downstream ports with per-port power switches, over-current protection, and status LEDs. The controller handles USB 2.0 data transfer (up to 480 Mbps per port) and supports bus-powered or self-powered configurations. It offers a control interface (typically I2C/SMBus or a similar serial interface) for the host MCU to configure ports, monitor status, set LED states, and read interrupts. The M2 suffix usually indicates a specific package variant or temperature grade. For exact electrical specs, pinout, power requirements, and register map, consult the official datasheet from the supplier.
