EVB-UPD301A

Please Note: The UPD301A is not recommended for new designs, see the MCP22301.

The UPD301A is a stand-alone, small form factor USB Type-C™ Power Delivery (PD) Port Controller designed to adhere to the USB Type-C™ Cable and Connector Specification and USB Power Delivery 3.0 Specification. The UPD301A provides stand-alone operation for source PD applications, enabling cable plug orientation and detection for a USB Type-C receptacle, and implementing baseband communication with a partner USB Type-C device via the integrated USB Power Delivery 3.0 MAC.

The EVB-UPD301A is a complete, charge-only system implementation. It features all components needed to evaluate full power delivery operation of the device. The EVB supports up to two USB-C ports. The kit comes with a power supply daughter card for the first port. A second power supply card is available separately if the user wishes to operate in two port mode (Part Number EVB-UPD301A-PM-PD-HOT). The power supply interface enables the user to design alternate power supply implementations.
