USB Interfaces

The I/O Hub (82801GBM) provides the USB solution for both legacy UHCI controller (USB 1.1) and EHCI
controller (USB 2.0) support. The I/O Hub (Southbridge) contains port-routing logic that determines which

controller (UHCI or EHCI) handles the USB data signals. The J44 header provides two of the six USB ports:

USB0 and USB1. The J14 header provides USB2 and USB3, and the J39 header provides USB4 and USB5.

USB 2.0 Support

The I/O Hub (Southbridge) contains an Enhanced Host Controller Interface (EHCI) compliant host
controller, which supports up to six high-speed USB 2.0 Specification compliant root ports. The higher

speed USB 2.0 specification allows data transfers up to 480 Mbps using the same pins as the six full-speed/

low-speed USB UHCI ports. The I/O Hub (Southbridge) port-routing logic determines which of the
controllers (UHCI or the EHCI) processes the USB signals.The USB 2.0 features implemented in the USB

ports include the following:

One EHCI host controller for all six USB ports

Supports USB V2.0 Specification

Legacy USB Support

The I/O Hub (Southbridge) supports three USB Universal Host Controller Interfaces (UHCI) and each Host
Controller includes a root hub with two separate USB ports each, for a total of six USB ports. The USB

Legacy features implemented in the USB ports include the following:

Three root hubs for six USB ports

Support for USB v1.1 and UHCI v1.1 with integrated physical layer transceivers

Improved arbitration latency for UHCI controllers

UHCI controllers support Analog Front End (AFE) embedded cell instead of USB I/O buffers to allow
for USB high-speed signaling rates

Three shared over-current fuses, located on the board, are used on all six USB ports
