DESCRIBE
Chrontel’s CH7213D is a low cost USB Type-C logic controller. The device
is targeted for system designers implementing USB Type-C devices with
DisplayPort capabilities and USB Power Delivery 2.0 support.CH7213C’s
robust Power Delivery 2.0 module using the BMC protocol can enable USB
Type-C devices operating in various power management roles including
Consumer and Provider. The DisplayPort Alt. mode is another alternative
interface supported in the CH7213C. A builtin Billboard Class can be
automatically exposed to the USB 2.0 D+/- bus if a Type-C PD Source
(DFP) does not equip USB Type-C Alt. Mode features that support
DisplayPort signal transmission. The system with CH7213C’s DisplayPort
Alt. mode enabled can be
programmed to support Type-C to DisplayPort
display or DisplayPort to a Type-C DP Alt. mode monitor. The CH7213C’s
bi-directional signal converter for the DisplayPort HPD (hot plug
detection) and VDM (Vendor Defined Message) is capable of translating
the HPD to the appropriated VDM to Type-C DP device and vice versa.In
addition to hardware support of PHY and Link layers,the CH7213C has an
internal microprocessor to handle the cable logic communication and can
be programmed for customization according to the application of USB
Type-C platforms. For reducing the BOM cost of final products, the
CH7213D integrates all necessary components and circuits, such as LDO,
clock generation isolation circuit,Ra, Rd and Rp etc.
Founded in 1986, Chrontel develops and markets mixed-signal integrated circuits. The company is a leading provider of display interface IC's for personal computers, portable media players & smartphones. Interfacing to different computing platform standards including TV, HDTV, LCD, ...
