Chip USB (IC-USB) specification (Reference A)
define
d fi es a standard methodology f using USB in chip-to-

th d l
for i
i hi t
chip co
ommunications. It is used in the embedded
system market as a replacement for i2C to control data
ms
transfe between endpoint functions within an
ers
embed
dded device. IC-USB allows vendors to leverage on-
board embedded USB host logic to enable faster chip-to-
chip co
ommunications using USB physical links within a
multi-chi PCB assembly.

Teledy LeCroy’s embedded probe supports tapping
yne
these chip-to-chip links using low or full speed Inter-chip
signals at all defined IC-USB voltages. The probe can also
s
be use to tap USB 2.0 links at standard 3.3 volt signal
ed
levels.

The mbedded
Th emb dd d probe utilizes a 4-wire h d plug that
b tili
4 i header l th t
can be attached as a solder down tap or as flying lead
e
conne
ection attached directly to header pins on the DUT.
Probin techniques above can be used for both USB 2.0
ng
compliant electrical links or low/full speed Inter-chip links.
The USB protocol traffic can be monitored (via the D+/D-
wires) by attaching the probe to the “A” port of a Teledyne
LeCroy
L C y USB analyzer.

Probe Specifications
Operational Characteristics:
A 4-wire tap allows solder down directly between chip
p-to-chip connections on a PCB. For IC-USB links, a high-
fidelity amplifier is used to increase signal amplitude t valid USB 1.1/2/0 voltages. Supported voltages defined
to
by the Inter-Chip USB (IC-USB) specification (Reference A) include:
1.0 V
1.2V
1.5V
1.8 V
3.0 V
3.3V
(standard USB 1.1/2.0 voltage)
Probe Components:
•
Header plug allows connection to the female por
rtion of probe lead assembly
•
Two flying lead probe sets (6” for IC-USB links; 2 for high-speed USB 2.0 links)
2”
•
•
Solder in resistor probe tips
Two type “A” USB connections (One USB cable for power; one cable for connection to analyzer)
e
Temperature and Humidity
