Supports USB 3.1 Gen 2 with bandwidth up to 10Gbps . It is backward compatible with USB 2.0 and supports both UASP (USB Attached SCSI Protocol) and BOT (Bulk Only Transfer) for efficient data movement. Storage Protocols:
Compliant with PCI Express Base Specification Revision 3.1a, supporting link widths of x1 or x2 lanes running at 8.0 GT/s per lane. rtl9210b datasheet 2021
If you want to look into specific integration parameters, let me know:
High-performance storage controllers generate substantial heat. The 2021 datasheet highlights Realtek’s advanced power saving and thermal throttling mechanisms designed to protect both the bridge chip and the attached SSD.

Features dynamic power state switching for power saving. It includes a built-in switching regulator (5V to 1V) and LDO (5V to 3.3V). Packaging: Housed in a compact 68-pin QFN "Green" package. Performance and Market Position
: The RTL9210BPD-CG variant specifically supports Power Delivery 3.0 via the Type-C connector. : Updated behaviors for "Safe Eject" indicators on
USB 3.2 Gen 2 (formerly known as USB 3.1 Gen 2). Maximum Bandwidth: Up to 10 Gbps (Gigabits per second).
Low-capacitance ESD protection diodes (less than 0.5pF) must be placed directly behind the USB Type-C connector pads before any series components to safeguard the silicon against static discharge.
Below is a quick reference table of the core technical specifications from the official Realtek documentation:
The 2021 datasheet updates standardized configuration registers that can be modified via Realtek’s mass production software tool ( RTL9210B_ConfigApp ). Key configurable variables include:
