TPS25750 – HIGHLY INTEGRATED USB TYPE-C® AND USB PD CONTROLLER WITH PRE-CONFIGURED GUI

Summary of TPS25750 – HIGHLY INTEGRATED USB TYPE-C® AND USB PD CONTROLLER WITH PRE-CONFIGURED GUI


Texas Instruments TPS25750 is a fully integrated USB Type-C and USB Power Delivery controller optimized for power-provider and power-consumer applications. It provides managed power paths, robust protection, I2C control for battery chargers, pre-configured GUI-based setup (no firmware needed), and supports USB PD 3.0 and Type-C specifications with GPIOs, BC1.2 charging, cable detection, VCONN switching, and dead-battery support.

Parts used in the TPS25750 Project:

  • Texas Instruments TPS25750 USB Type-C & Power Delivery controller
  • Integrated 5V, 3A, 36mΩ sourcing switch (TPS25750S/D variant)
  • Integrated 28V, 7A, 16mΩ bi-directional load switch (TPS25750D variant)
  • I2C-connected TI battery charger IC (external)
  • USB Type-C connector and cable
  • 3.3V LDO power supply
  • PCB with GPIO connections (up to ten configurable GPIOs)
  • External power source (VBUS or 3.3V)
  • Web-based GUI interface (software component)

Texas Instruments TPS25750 USB Type-C & Power Delivery (PD) Controller is optimized for applications supporting USB-C PD Power. The TPS25750 integrates fully managed power paths with robust protection for a complete USB-C PD solution. The Texas Instruments TPS25750 also integrates control for external battery charger ICs for added ease of use and reduced time to market. The intuitive web-based graphical user interface (GUI) will ask the user a few simple questions on the application’s needs using clear block diagrams and simple multiple-choice questions. As a result, the GUI will create the configuration image for the user’s application, reducing much of the complexity associated with competitive USB PD solutions.
