eUSB2 can support USB high-speed, full-speed, and low-speed operation, as well as the USB 2.0 L1/L2 link power management requirements. In addition, eUSB2 requires no change to the existing USB 2.0 software programming model. eUSB2 also uses the same two data line configurations, eD+ and eD- as USB2 D+ and D-. Vbus and power delivery are not impacted by eUSB2.  

Arasan is the only company to offer the complete suite of USB 2.0 IP products including the USB 2.0 Host, Hub, Device, OTG, DRD, eUSB and PHY. Arasan also offers the HSIC option for chip to chip connections over USB.
