TPS65983B: Interface forum

George Branck51

Part Number: TPS65983B
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TPS65987D

Can you provide the name of the Intel reference design that implements the TPS65983B with the Titan Ridge Thunderbolt controller supporting only 5V@3A . I'm assuming it's one of the reference designs presented when selecting NEW projects with the TPS65983B Application Customization Utility.

Thanks,

George

Hi George,

Which Intel reference design are you following? If you are using Titan Ridge, it should be either Tapex Creek or Tahini Creek. You could select either one of those in the application customization tool.

Thank you,
Eric

Hi Eric,

Yes, we will be using the Titan Ridge in a host configuration and I'm just gather info and will be request from Intel the associated reference design material. Our Thunderbolt implementation is for a single port HOST supporting 5v@3amps. Do you recommend the TPS65983B or TPS65987D. Do both the Tapex and Tahini Creek reference designs support the TPS65983B. If the TPS65987D is the recommended part for our application is there an associated reference design. I'm assuming Intel provide reference design material ... correct?

Regards,
George

Hi George,

For a Host design, you are free to use whichever PD controller you like. I would suggest using the TPS65987D if you are designing a Host. I believe Intel has some reference material using 87D but I would suggest checking with them on that.

Thank you,
Eric
