TPS65982: TPS65982's SS pin

Part Number: TPS65982

Dear Sir 

May I know this soft start function support DFP or UFP ??

Or both of DFP and UFP support??

Due to below describe sink ,I confuse this mean UFP ??  

  • Hi Kai,

    Source and Sink are referring to the current power role of the device. A Source will be the provider of power and a Sink will be the consumer of power. DFP and UFP are strictly related to data roles only. As such, a Source can be a DFP or a UFP. Likewise, a Sink can be a DFP or a UFP.
    In conclusion, the soft start function supports both DFP and UFP.

    Thank you,
    Eric
