This document is the user guide for the TPS65988 Evaluation Module (TPS65988EVM). The
TPS65988EVM allows for evaluation of the TPS65988 IC as part of a stand-alone testing kit and for
development and testing of USB Type-C and Power Delivery (PD) end products. Out of the box, the
TPS65988EVM is configured to emulate a dual-port laptop computer. Both ports can be used to source or
sink power, and both are dual-role ports (DRP) but only support data as a downstream-facing port (DFP)
host. When different configurations are required to test your system, use the TPS65988 Application
Configuration software tool to create a configuration or load a different configuration template (see
Figure
1). The TPS65988EVM uses a control MUX (HD3SS3412) to route DisplayPort™ (DP) and a USB
HUB (TUSB8020) to route USB signals to the appropriate port A or port A (port A/B). The control MUX
and USB HUB are connected to a SuperSpeed (SS) MUX (TUSB546) which routes the appropriate DP
lanes and USB 3.0 signals according to cable orientation and Alternate Mode selection.
