USB-C power controllers for power and data transfer in modern mobile devices introduced by Infineon
MUNICH – Infineon Technologies AG in Munich is introducing the EZ-PD portfolio of USB-C PD controllers for power delivery and data transfer capabilities for modern mobile devices. USB-C can deliver as much as 240 Watts of power.
The EZ-PD Cable Marker Generation 2 (CMG2) is a dedicated eMarker controller designed for passive non-Thunderbolt and Thunderbolt Type-C cables and supports USB-PD 3.1 and Type-C 2.1 standards.
EZ-PD CMG2-based USB-C eMarker cables can handle USB4 and TBT4 data rates, and provides integrated volts BUS-to-CC short circuit protection of as much as 54 volts.
Additionally, it supports R A weakening to reduce power consumption and integrates an oscillator and IEC electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection.
The controller comes with a configurable 47-byte storage space for vendor- and cable-specific configuration data and operates within a 2.7-to-5.5-volt VCONN supply range.
