1 Introduction

The TPS257xx-Q1 devices belong to a family of USB Type-C PD controllers for use in single or multi-port charging or data USB system applications. The TPS257xx-Q1 family supports an integrated Source Power Policy Management (SPM) Engine that manages multi-port power allocation policies (in the case of the TPS25772-Q1 dual-port PD controller) and dynamically adjusts USB port power based on events such as these: Connect or disconnect of a Sink device and its Sink Capabilities, thermal events measured through an external thermistor or temperature sensor, and engine status detected through a change in input supply voltage.
