TI drives toward a one-cable world with the first integrated USB Type-C Power Delivery controller in volume productionDALLAS, July 28, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Texas Instruments (TI) (NASDAQ: TXN) today introduced the first all-in-one USB Type-C and USB Power Delivery (PD) controller, which integrates a port power switch and port data multiplexer. The TPS65982 USB PD controller is the only integrated circuit (IC) available that provides the full power path, operating as a Single- or Dual-Role Port and enabling a variety of host and device power implementations. Experience the interactive Multimedia News Release here: http://www.multivu.com/players/English/70647529-texas-instruments-usb-type-c/ For applications requiring higher data rates, the TPS65982 can be combined with the 5.4-Gbps HD3SS460, the industry's first USB Type-C cross-point switch. This solution enables USB connectors on either end of the cable to be flipped up or down, delivers power up to 100 W, and supports Alternate Modes to distribute video over DisplayPort from the host to the end device. For USB Type-C systems requiring up to 15 W of power, engineers can choose the TUSB320 family, the industry's first devices to provide USB Type-C configuration channel (CC) logic and port control. These devices make it possible for a system to detect the orientation of the plug, and determine the appropriate USB specification and mode settings for the end equipment. For more information on USB Type-C PD as well as TI's new devices, see www.ti.com/usb-c-pr. One cable to replace many TI delivers the most complete host and peripheral solutions, with the performance and tools to bring USB Type-C products to market faster. Key features and benefits of TI's new USB Type-C devices
Tools and support for TI's new USB Type-C devices Engineers can speed up their USB Type-C system designs with evaluation modules (EVMs), including the TPS65982-EVM (includes BoosterPack pin standard for TI's low-cost LaunchPad ecosystem) for US$29, the HD3SS460EVM-SRC for $149 and the TUSB320EVM for $99. These tools are available from the TI store and authorized distributors. Designers can jump-start their design with the USB Type-C Dock reference design (TIDA-00630). Engineers designing with USB Type-C can also search for solutions, get help, share knowledge, and solve problems with fellow engineers and TI experts in the TI E2E™ Community USB forum.
