Automotive USB-C charge port controller — what it is
The TPS25833QCWRHBRQ1 is a Texas Instruments USB Type-C charge port controller built for automotive environments. The wide 4.5V to 36V input range lets it ride through 12V battery cranking and load-dump transients without an external linear pre-regulator. Quiescent supply current is 700µA typical, relevant for always-on modules where the port is powered but idle.
Design-in: supply rails and package
Packaged in a 32-VFQFN with exposed pad, 5x5 mm body. The wettable-flank option improves solder-joint inspection for automotive production. For a charge port sinking 3A continuous, the pad-to-ambient thermal path sets the junction rise; the datasheet layout guidelines specify the via pattern under the pad.
Orders are placed against standard lead times; the part is ROHS3 compliant.
