DATASHEET
When Dynamic Power switching is enabled, the Hub detects the availability of a local power source
by monitoring the external SELF_PWR pin. If the Hub detects a change in power source availability,
the Hub immediately disconnects and removes power from all downstream devices and disconnects
the upstream port. The Hub will then re-attach to the upstream port as either a Bus-Powered Hub (if
local-power in unavailable) or a Self-Powered Hub (if local power is available).

Power-On Timer
Time (in 2ms intervals) from the time power-on sequence begins on a port until power is good on that

5.1.1.19
Power Switching Polarity
The selection of active state “polarity” for the PRTPWR2 pin is made by a strapping option only.
5.1.2
VBus Detect
According to Section 7.2.1 of the USB 2.0 Specification, a downstream port can never provide power
to its D+ or D- pull-up resistors unless the upstream port’s VBUS is in the asserted (powered) state.
The VBUS_DET pin on the Hub monitors the state of the upstream VBUS signal and will not pull-up
the D+ or D- resistor if VBUS is not active. If VBUS goes from an active to an inactive state (Not
Powered), Hub will remove power from the D+ or D- pull-up resistor within 10 seconds.
