Cypress Semiconductor Corp. announces the availability of a new USB-C controller with Power Delivery (PD) that streamlines the design of power adapters, mobile chargers, car chargers and power banks. The EZ-PD™ CCG3PA controller supports the PD 3.0 standard with programmable power supply (PPS) and Qualcomm’s Quick Charge (QC) 4.0 protocol, which enable new power source product designs to provide an improved fast charging user experience. As these standards and the USB Type-C standard continue to evolve, compliance and interoperability pose an ongoing challenge, but the programmable CCG3PA controller enables firmware upgradeability to keep up with changes and overcome interoperability issues. The controller offers a high level of integration that minimizes bill-of-material costs and simplifies designs, replacing multiple discrete components with a single-chip solution. More information on the EZ-PD CCG3PA controller is available at http://www.cypress.com/ccg3pa.
