Cypress USB-C controller wins Qualcomm Quick Charge? 4 technology certification to speed up mobile phone charging

Photocoupler

Cypress Semiconductor, the leader in the USB-C market, today announced that its EZ-PD® CCG3PA USB-C controller is one of the first products in the industry to receive Qualcomm QuickChargeTM 4 certification, providing optimized fast charging for mobile phone chargers. Experience. QuickCharge4 supports the USB Power Transfer (PD) 3.0 specification. A USBPD with programmable power supply (PPS) allows the smartphone to communicate with the charger to select the best voltage and current values ​​for fast, efficient charging. QuickCharge4 also adds a variety of security enhancements and is specifically designed to prevent overcharging temperatures.

Cypress's programmable CCG3PA controllers are synchronized with evolving standards through firmware upgrades to ensure interoperability. The controller's high level of integration significantly reduces material costs and simplifies design, replacing multiple discrete devices with a single-chip solution.

"The Cypress EZ-PDCCG3PA controller certified by QuickCharge4 provides mobile phone charger manufacturers with a highly integrated solution that helps them simplify the next generation," said Ganesh Subramaniam, senior marketing director at Cypress's Wired Connections division. Designed for fast charging products, CCG3PA not only supports the QuickCharge4 charging standard, but also keeps pace with future technological standards through firmware upgrades."

Josh Warner, product manager at Qualcomm, said: "The support for QuickCharge4 by USB-C and USB PowerDelivery industry leaders such as Cypress proves that this technology is gaining popularity and bringing end users faster, easier charging than ever before. Experience. QuickCharge4 is applying this speed, reliability, security and consistency to more products. Cypress EZ-PDCCG3PA controller is certified by QuickCharge4, marking the industry as another in this field. A crucial step."

The EZ-PDCCG3PA controller is a single-chip solution that integrates an error amplifier for constant voltage, constant current, and PPS applications commonly found in USB-C power adapters, a 30 volt regulator that allows VBUS direct operation, and a configuration channel ( VBUS short-circuit protection on the CC) pin, high-voltage power FET gate driver, low-side current sense amplifier, dedicated hardware for traditional charger detection protocol, and system-level electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection to minimize USB-C Material cost of power products. Programmable overvoltage and overcurrent circuits protect the system from power overload and other erroneous operations. It also integrates ARM? Cortex?-M0 and 64KBFlash to support firmware upgrades. In addition, this product is ideal for high-efficiency USB-C power adapter designs for a variety of applications, including mobile phones, laptops, tablets and consumer electronics.

The USBType-C and PowerDelivery standards are supported by more and more top electronics manufacturers due to their thin industrial design, easy-to-use connectors and cables, and the ability to transmit multiple protocols and transmit up to 100W. The plug height of the USBType-C standard is only 2.4 mm, which is significantly smaller than the existing 4.5 mm USB Type-A plug.
