The PS9010 is a highly integrated USB4 dock controller designed to manage data and video across multiple protocols. It features full support for USB4, Thunderbolt 3 (TBT3), USB3.2, DisplayPort 2.1, and PCIe tunneling, making it suitable for a wide range of high-speed peripheral applications. With one USB4 upstream port and multiple downstream ports including one USB4, PS9010 facilitates seamless connectivity between devices while ensuring compliance with USB4, USB3.2, and DisplayPort Alt Mode.

Built on Parade’s advanced IP, the PS9010 supports low-power modes, PCIe/USB3.2/DisplayPort tunneling, and simultaneous data transfer across USB and DisplayPort interfaces, making it an ideal choice for USB4 docks, monitors, and external peripherals. The PS9010 also features integrated security blocks for SHA-256 and RSA-3072 hardware-based algorithms, ensuring secure firmware updates.
