BIT
NUMBER BIT NAME DESCRIPTION
7:0 BC_EN Only available in USB251xB/Bi hub family products.
Battery Charging Enable: Enables the battery charging feature for the
corresponding port.
'0' = Battery Charging support is not enabled
'1' = Battery charging support is enabled
Bit 7= Reserved
Bit 6= Reserved
Bit 5= Reserved
Bit 4= Controls Port 4

NUMBER BIT NAME DESCRIPTION
7:2 Reserved Reserved
1:0 BOOST_IOUT USB electrical signaling drive strength Boost Bit for the Upstream Port.
‘00’ = Normal electrical drive strength = No boost
‘01’ = Elevated electrical drive strength = Low (~ 4% boost)
‘10’ = Elevated electrical drive strength = Medium (~ 8% boost)
‘11’ = Elevated electrical drive strength = High (~12% boost)
Note: “Boost” could result in non-USB Compliant parameters, OEM
should use a ‘00’ value unless specific implementation issues
require additional signal boosting to correct for degraded USB
signalling levels.
