Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TPS65987, TPS65988
I have used TPS65988DJ with titan ridge for a host design, I follow the intel CRB design with the reference firmware. But the PD chip not work normally as the CRB. When I plug the TBT device, there is no any response from the host. Though there are TBT bridge in the device manager.
I try to use other type C device, there still not any response from the device.
I check with TI “TPS65987_8_ACELITE_KRATOS Application Customization 6.2.8_RC2” GUI tool with Aardvark I2C tool to enter the debug mode, and it check the chip in the APP mode, and the PD state machine can sense the plug and unplug action, but the power path switches are off. So there is no power path to the VBUS, and check the CC logic, one pin is still communication, the other CC line is off, [low state] for CRB, the other line is 5V.
I have checked the hardware design with CRB, there seems no difference. So my question is , what should I check the hardware error which leads the abnormal behavior of the PD chip.
I have done another experiment, remove the TBT chip , only the PD chip left. The PD chip still not work normally.pf-cZ370-tbt.zip
