GENERAL DESCRIPTION
GL3321G is a high performance USB3.0 to SATA 6Gb/s storage controller for personal storage (external
HDD/SSD enclosure), ODD player, media player, and set-top-box applications. It integrates Genesys Logic
owned design USB3.0/2.0 PHY and SATA PHY which provides more design flexibility and quality. From
system point of view, GL3321G can meet EU Eup regulation on standby power consumption (0.5W) and it
also passes Microsoft WHQL1.6 verification program, which can reduce time-to-market efforts for system
manufacturers.GL3321G also integrates the voltage regulators to provide minimal active components on
RBOM.
