The TPS25859Q1EVM-161 is an evaluation module (EVM) for TI's TPS25859-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. Each port can be enabled or disabled by PA_EN and PB_EN. Each port can also assert fault as in fault condition.

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–800kHz
• Fully AEC-Q100 qualified
• Programmable output short current limit: ±15% accuracy overtemperature
• Smart thermal management
• 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
