The second topology demonstrates a basic Type-C charging port. In this topology, the
Type-B receptacles are not used. Type-C devices and host platforms are connected to
the EVB Type-C ports. The UPD301A supports all PD3.0 charging profiles: 5V, 9V, 15V,
and 20V, and supports up to 3A of current at 20V for a total of 60W.

QUICK START
To quickly start using the board, perform the following steps:
1. Connect a 24V, 5A power supply to the terminal block connector on the
EVB-UPD301A (J5).
2. Using a standard Type-A to Type-B USB cable, connect the EVB-UPD301A to a
USB host via the upstream “Port 1” J2.
3. Using a standard Type-A to Type-B USB cable, connect the EVB-UPD301A to a
USB host via the upstream “Port 2” J4.
Devices may now be connected to either of the two downstream facing Type-C ports
to enumerate and use those devices with the USB host.
