The MxL81434 is a hi-speed USB 2.0 compound device with an embedded hub and six downstream USB functions: four UARTs, a multi-master-capable I2C controller, and an enhanced dedicated GPIO entity (EDGE) controller.

The upstream USB interface has an integrated USB 2.0 PHY and device controller that is compliant with both hi-speed (480Mbps) and full-speed (12Mbps) USB 2.0. The Vendor ID, Product ID, power mode, remote wake-up support, and maximum power consumption are amongst the values that can be programmed using the on-chip one-time programmable (OTP) memory.

The enhanced UARTs have a maximum data rate of 15Mbps. Using a fractional baud rate generator, any baud rate between 300bps and 15Mbps can be accurately generated. In addition, the UARTs have a large 1024-byte Tx FIFO and Rx FIFO to optimize the overall data throughput for various applications. The automatic RS-485 control feature simplifies both the hardware and software for half-duplex RS-485 applications. If required, the multidrop (9-bit) mode feature further simplifies typical multidrop applications by enabling/disabling the UART receiver depending on the address byte received.

The multi-master-capable I2C controller and EDGE controller (up to 32 GPIOs) can be accessed via the USB HID interface. The EDGE pins or I2C interface can be used for controlling and monitoring other peripherals. Up to two EDGE pins can be configured as PWM generators.
