Overview
The TCPP03-M20 is a power delivery controller designed by STMicroelectronics to meet the USB Power Delivery revision 3.1 standards, supporting up to 100 W (20 V – 5 A, Standard Power Range) and Programmable Power Supply (PPS) for fast charging. This component is specifically tailored for dual role power (DRP) and dual role data (DRD) applications, as well as sink configurations that require current sense on VBUS.
It serves as a companion chip to microcontrollers, particularly those from the STM32 family, enhancing the safety and functionality of USB Type-C ports. The TCPP03-M20 integrates gate drivers for N-MOSFETs on both consumer and provider paths, ensuring over voltage and over current protections on VBUS and CC pins.
