Introduction
Texas Instrument's (TI’s) TPS65987-90 evaluation module helps designers evaluate the operation and
performance of the TPS65987 device.
The TPS65987 device is a USB Type-C and Power Delivery (PD) controller providing cable plug and
orientation detection at the USB Type-C connector. Upon cable detection, the TPS65987 communicates
on the CC wire using the USB PD protocol. When cable detection and USB PD negotiation are complete,
the TPS65987 device enables the appropriate power path and configures
Alternate Mode
settings for
external multiplexers. The TPS65987D device has two internal power paths that can source or sink up to 5
A. The EVM is customizable through the
TPS65987 Application Customization Tool
. Additionally, the EVM
is equipped with an FTDI chip for flashing a new project through SPI or I
2
C for debugging and
development.
