USB-C charge port controller with wide input
The TPS25832AQCWRHBRQ1 is a USB Type-C and SDP/CDP charge port controller from Texas Instruments, designed to manage downstream port negotiation and power delivery in automotive and industrial USB hubs. Its 4.5V to 36V input range covers the full automotive battery bus — from cold-crank dips to load-dump transients — without an external pre-regulator. The 700 µA supply current keeps the port alive in key-off or standby modes, important for always-on USB charging in telematics and dash-cam applications.
Thermal headroom in a 5×5 QFN
The 32-VQFN (5x5) package with exposed pad and wettable flank simplifies solder-joint inspection on automotive-class boards — the flank wets visibly, so AOI catches cold joints before thermal cycling does.
No PCN or last-time-buy window has been announced. The base product number TPS25832 covers multiple output-current and feature variants; the AQCWRHBRQ1 suffix identifies the specific tape-and-reel, wettable-flank package option.
