USB4® Version 2.0 PHY Microcontroller (GRL-USB4V2-Controller)

Description

Developed by a recognized world leader in Thunderbolt and USB testing, GRL’s USB4® Version 2.0 PHY Microcontroller provides reliable communication and interoperability over the USB4® Version 2.0 platform to test your 80 Gbps hosts and devices to the USB4® Version 2.0 Gen 4 (Revision 0.9) standard. Enable validation of in-vehicle systems that rely on USB4® performance for critical infotainment, advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS), and connected car applications. In addition, GRL-USB4V2-Controller also supports USB4® v1.0 Gen 3 & Gen 2 connectivity and data speeds.

GRL-USB4V2-Controller puts the DUT into the right state for USB4® testing when paired with the USB Type-C® passive cable and USB4® test fixture. GRL-USB4V2-Controller directly controls the DUT by executing microcontroller test scripts.

Our USB4® Version 2.0 microcontroller works seamlessly with USB4® receiver, transmitter and return loss automation solutions to automatically test any USB4® Gen 4, Gen 3 or Gen 2 host or device port(s). This means faster, more reliable testing of automotive-grade components for EV manufacturers and suppliers, ensuring robust connectivity across charging, infotainment, and digital cockpit ecosystems. Rely on strong, flexible microcontroller support to simplify and expedite both testing and equipment calibration time.
