USB EZ-PD Type-C

[KiHo_4445581]

Dear All,

Thank you for your support!

I have one question about the spec of CY4500 EZ-PD Protocol analyzer.

Does CY4500 support PD3.0? It seems that CY4500 cannot decode the message of PD3.0(ex Programmable Request Data Object ).

If CY4500 supports PD3.0 in any way, please tell us the method(ex SW update etc...)

Otherwise, could you tell us a protocol analyzer supported for PD 3.0?

Regard,

Hi ,

CY4500 can catch the message of PD3.0, but CY4500 cannot decode the message of PD3.0. We are going to update the CY4500 firmware and Software Tool for PD3.0 support. Currently, the update is not complete.

For PD3.0 protocol analyzer, you can use

• Ellisys USB Explorer® 350 Protocol Analyzer, Generator, and Compliance Test System
  • http://ellisys.com/products/usbex350/index.php
• Granite River Labs - GRL-USB-PD-C2 USB Type-C Power Delivery Tester
  • http://graniteriverlabs.com/usb-pd-c2/
• MQP PDT
