Terminus Technology Inc. is a professional fabless IC design house. Founded in 2006 by a group of highly experienced IC designers in Taipei, Taiwan. Terminus Technology's first product in the market – High-Speed USB Hub says it all just by itself. With superior architecture design, solid physical layer design, and comprehensive power control, it reaches the highest performance with the lowest power consumption of its class.
General Features
All hub-controllers are Windows Vista and Windows-7 certified
• FE1.1: USB-IF TID:30000018, W Vista ID:1283259 & W7 ID:1339085
• FE1.1s: USB-IF TID:30000024, Windows 7 ID:1338310
• FE2.1: USB-IF TID:30000020, W Vista ID:1323858 & W7 ID:1339086
• FE4.1: USB-IF TID:30000050, Windows 7 ID:1413273
Effective transmission can reach over 10 meters while others normally reach only
around 5 meters.
Excellent performance on CE/FCC both in EMI and ESD
All ICs with 5V to 3.3V & 3.3V to 1.8V LDO Regulator embedded
