Both analog and digital overcurrent modes are supported; see Tab le 7.
For digital overcurrent detection, the normal digital TTL level is accepted on the
overcurrent input pins. For analog overcurrent detection, the threshold is given in the
DC characteristics. In this mode, to filter out false overcurrent conditions because of
in rush and spikes, a dead time of 15 ms is built into the IC, that is, overcurrent must
persist for 15 ms before it is reported to the host.
9.1.4 Non-removable port
A non-removable port, by definition, is a port that is embedded inside the hub
application box and is not externally accessible. The LED port indicators
(pins AMBn_N) of such a port are not used. Therefore, the corresponding amber LED
port indicators are disabled to signify that the port is non-removable; see Tab le 8.
More than one non-removable port can be specified by appropriately connecting the
corresponding amber LED indicators. At least one port should, however, be left as a
removable port.
The detection of any non-removable port sets the hub descriptor into a compound
hub.
9.1.5 Port indicator support
The port indicator support can be disabled by grounding all green port indicators (all
pins GRNn_N); see Tab le 9. This is a global feature. It is not possible to disable port
indicators for only one port.
