• Native USB-C port controller interface (TCPCI) for ease of integration with the existing USB-C port manager (TCPM);
• Support for Intel’s Direct Connect Interface (DCI) Closed Chassis Debug;
• Support for high-speed interfaces, such as USB 3.1 up to Gen 2 10Gbps and DisplayPort™ 1.4 at up to HBR3 8.1Gbps.

“ANX7447 family enables the powerful new PD 3.0 features which provide the functionality and flexibility needed in best-in-class notebooks,” said Andre Bouwer, vice president of marketing for Analogix. “These, together with Analogix’s 10G re-timing switch and other products, give Analogix the most advanced portfolio for USB-C enablement.”

ANX7447 is being demonstrated at Computex 2017, Analogix exhibitor suite # 1140 & 1141 at The Grand Hyatt Taipei.
