The TPS25850Q1EVM-088 is an evaluation module (EVM) for TI's TPS25850-Q1 USB Type-C™ and BC1.2 dual type-C ports which is capable of providing up to 6.6-A output current, 3 A for each port with cable compensation. The EVM operates over a range from 5.5 V to 26 V and withstands 40-V transient voltage. The value of cable compensation, current limit, output voltage and switching frequency can be adjusted by resistors on the EVM.

The following features are available on this EVM:

• 5.5-V to 26-V input range, 3-A continuous output current buck converter for each port
• 200-mA capability for OUT pin, 200-mA capability for VCONN power meeting for USB3.1 power requirement
• Forced PWM operation with Spread-Spectrum Dithering at 200 kHz –2.4 MHz
• Fully AEC-Q100 qualified
• Programmable output short current limit: ±15% accuracy overtemperature
• Smart thermal management
• USB battery charging specification Rev. 1.2 DCP mode, divider3 mode, Samsung 1.2 V mode, and USB Type-C Rev. 1.3 compliant
• User-programmable VBUS current limit and internal VCONN current limiting

The EVM is used in the following applications:

• Automotive: USB media hubs, USB charging ports, aftermarket Dual USB chargers
