Which chipsets support USB4?
As an advanced interface standard, USB4's support is closely related to the chipset. At present, several well-known chip manufacturers have or will soon support USB4 in their chipsets. The following are some chipsets that mainly support USB4 and their related information:
1. Apple chipset
Apple M1 and M2 chips:
Apple's M1 and M2 chips both support the USB4 specification. These two chips are powerful chips designed by Apple for Mac, integrating a variety of advanced technologies and using advanced process technology.
M1 and M2 chips not only support USB4's data transmission protocol, but also provide a new system that complies with the new USB specification, bringing users higher performance and energy efficiency.
2. AMD chipset
AMD Ryzen 6000 series APU:
AMD released the Ryzen 6000 series APU at CES 2022. This Zen 3+ architecture product, codenamed Rembrandt, further optimizes the original Zen 3 architecture, adopts a 6nm process, and supports USB 4, PCIe 4.0 and LPDDR5/DDR5 memory.
The release of the Ryzen 6000 series APU marks an important progress in AMD's support for USB4, providing users with a wider range of connection options and higher data transfer speeds.
3. Intel chipset
Intel Tiger Lake series:
Intel has implemented the Thunderbolt 4 interface in the Tiger Lake series processors, and each CPU can support up to 4 Thunderbolt 4/USB4 interfaces. This means that devices equipped with Tiger Lake series processors will be able to support USB4's data transfer protocol.
The Tiger Lake series processors not only improve core frequency and performance, but also improve the control of power consumption and frequency, bringing users a better user experience.
Other chipsets
With the popularity of USB4 specifications and the continuous development of technology, more chipset manufacturers are expected to join the ranks of supporting USB4. These chipsets may come from different manufacturers and different product lines to meet the needs and application scenarios of different users.
Notes
Specific support may vary depending on factors such as chipset model, manufacturer and driver. Therefore, when purchasing equipment, users should carefully check product specifications and official support information.
Chipsets' support for USB4 not only involves an increase in data transfer speed, but may also include support for other advanced features such as video transmission, power transmission, etc. Users should choose suitable products according to their needs.
