Connect the Type-C cable provided with the kit to CY6611 EVK board’s US port; connect the other end to the Type-C port on a
laptop supporting USB 3.1 Gen 2 (10 Gbps) and USB PD capabilities. Verify charging status on the laptop. Also verify enumeration
of HX3PD on the laptop's Operating System (e.g., using Device Manager on Windows OS)
Note 2:
The power provided by the CY6611 EVK to the laptop is decided based on the USB PD contract negotiated between
the CY6611 EVK and the laptop.
Note 3:
CY6611 EVK supports PD charging on US and DS1 ports simultaneously. Connect a PD capable device
(e.g., mobile phone) on the DS1 port and verify the charging feature on the device.
