TUSB422 USB PD TCPCi Port Controller

Texas Instruments TUSB422 USB PD TCPCi Port Controller enables a USB Type-C port with the configuration channel (CC) logic needed for USB Type-C ecosystems. It integrates the physical layer of the USB BMC power delivery (PD) protocol to allow up to 100W of power and support for alternate mode interfaces. An external microprocessor, containing USB Type-C Port Manager (TCPM), communicates with the TUSB422 through an I²C interface. Under control of the TCPM, TUSB422 uses the CC pins to determine port attach/detach, cable orientation, role detection, and port control for USB Type-C current mode. The TUSB422 can be configured as DFP, UFP, or DRP, depending on the application. The TUSB422 implements V_BUS detection and discharge for the implementation of a compliant USB Type-C port. The TUSB422 integrates 2.5-watt switch to provide V_CONN power for an active cable. The device also provides V_CONN discharge function. The TUSB422 also supports USB Type-C optional features such as audio and debug accessory.
