Key Features
- Full USB Type-C and USB Power Delivery 3.0 controller handling CC detection, VBUS negotiation, and PD messaging in hardware
- I2C host interface at 1.8 V logic level allowing direct connection to low-voltage MCUs and SoCs without level shifting
- 48 MHz internal clock for fast PD state machine execution with low latency role swap and contract renegotiation
- 44-ball 7x7 mm VFBGA package enabling slim USB-C port designs in laptops, tablets, and power accessories
Applications
The UPD360-A/6HX is suited for USB Type-C port controllers in laptop chargers, USB-C docking stations, and portable power banks that must implement USB Power Delivery negotiation at up to 100 W. The I2C interface allows a host MCU to configure PD policies, monitor VBUS, and log fault events without implementing a full PD state machine in firmware. Its compact VFBGA package supports the thin-profile PCB designs typical in consumer electronics and industrial USB-C accessories.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which USB Power Delivery specification does the UPD360-A/6HX implement and what power levels can it negotiate?
The UPD360-A/6HX implements the USB Power Delivery 3.0 specification, enabling negotiation of fixed and programmable power supply profiles. It can handle PD contracts up to 100 W (20 V at 5 A) when paired with appropriate VBUS power circuitry. The CC line transceiver and state machine are fully hardware-managed, reducing MCU firmware complexity in USB-C charging designs.
How does the UPD360-A/6HX I2C interface simplify integration with a host MCU in a USB-C port design?
The UPD360-A/6HX exposes its PD engine via a 1.8 V I2C interface, allowing a host MCU to read port status, configure power data objects, and respond to policy events using standard 2-wire communication. This offloads the full USB PD state machine to dedicated hardware, leaving the MCU free for application tasks and keeping firmware at fewer than 1 KB of PD-related code.
What package does the UPD360-A/6HX use and how does it fit into slim USB-C product designs?
The UPD360-A/6HX is housed in a 44-ball 7x7 mm VFBGA (very-thin fine-pitch BGA) package with a 1.0 mm ball pitch and a very thin profile. This allows placement close to the USB-C connector on a multilayer PCB with minimal routing distance to CC lines, reducing susceptibility to ESD and noise. The compact footprint is compatible with the space constraints of ultrabook motherboards and slim USB-C adapter PCBs.
For a USB-C docking station design, what host supply voltage does the UPD360-A/6HX require?
The UPD360-A/6HX operates at a 1.8 V core supply, which aligns with the I/O voltage levels of modern application processors and SoCs used in docking station controllers. An internal 48 MHz clock eliminates the need for an external crystal, reducing BOM cost. The device can also accept a separate VBUS sense input to monitor negotiated supply voltages ranging from 5 V to 20 V.
