3.1 Firmware Description

The TUSB1046EVM uses the TPS65987 power delivery (PD) controller to manage the USB Type-C VBUS, handle the configuration channel negotiation, and to set the FLIP, CTL0, and CTL1 pins on the TUSB1046. The TPS65987 can be configured by loading firmware through the SPI programming header located on the side of the EVM. This evaluation module comes with pre-loaded firmware. However if a certain behavior is desired, custom firmware can be loaded to the PD controller as well. For details on creating a custom firmware file, see the TPS6598X-CONFIG on TI.com.
