TPS65987DDJ: billboard support

Part Number: TPS65987DDJ
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TPS65981, TPS65987D

hi,

we are working on a docking station for up/down/cross streaming apps.

we where considering TPS65981 but then we learned that probably a PD3.0 owuld have been better (USB-If org EOLing PD2).

so we looked at TPS65987DDH and TPS65988DH, but none of them has internal billboard implementation, but it is still doable (accordingly to 

https://e2e.ti.com/support/interface/f/138/p/781271/2888515)

Is my understanding correct? May you confirm if -87/-88 support or not billboard?

thansk a lot in advance

  • Hi Vincenzo,

    That is correct, the TPS65987D does not natively support billboard. The billboard functionality can be handled through the USB hub which is typically also in a system with TPS65987D. The TPS65987D has a GPIO event for billboard and it also has I2C master events that can be sent to the chip handling the billboard functionality.

    Thank you,
    Eric
