ROHM's BD93FxxMWV/BD93FxxMWV series of power receiving controller ICs support the latest USB Power Delivery (USB USB PD) protocol with the USB Type-C connector.
Compatibility with USB Type-C Rev1.3 and USB PD Rev3.0 makes it possible to receive and deliver up to 100W (20V/5A).
This enables devices with larger power requirements to be driven such as notebook PCs and TVs that could not be powered by conventional USB. At the same time, it can be applied to rapid battery chargers by taking advantage of its high power supply specifications.
The BD93FxxMWV series adopts the MAP QFN package while the BD93ExxGWL series is offered in the the space-saving CSP.
And for USB Type C power receiving applications up to 15W (5V/3A) that do not require USB PD, the BD91N01NUX power receiver switch control IC is recommended.
ROHM Evaluation Boards
Evaluation boards are offered that make it easy to evaluate ROHM's USB PD controller/Type C detection ICs.
These power receiving (sink side) boards can be purchased from online distributors.
