About USB Switch ICs
On Semiconductor USB Switch ICs
USB Switch ICs are integrated circuits that allow for multiple devices to be connected to a host computer or other device through an USB port. They are most commonly used to allow for multiple USB devices to be used simultaneously on a single device, or when cascading numerous USB devices from one connection. They can be used for other applications, such as for port replication, hub and switch operations, as well as for serial and parallel connection applications.
