Can I connect multiple USBs to a USB controller of the LX2080A?

[Kavinravi]

I would like to use the LX2080A processor for our project, which has only 2 USB 3.0 controllers.

I need five USB ports for our project.

I was wondering if I could use a USB Hub IC (with 1 upstream and 4 downstream) in one of the USB controllers to support 4 USB ports.

I was also wondering if I could connect USB ports to the PCIe X2 using a PCIe to USB host controller.

Thank you.

Hi @Kavinravi 

Yes, it is possible using a USB hub IC. For the PCIe interface, you need to find PCIe cards supporting USB ports.
