Design Requirements

For this example, use the parameters shown in Table 6.

Table 6. Design Requirements

PARAMETER VALUE
Input voltage 5 V
Output voltage 5 V
Above a minimum current limit 500 mA

USB can be implemented in several ways regardless of the type of USB device being developed. Several power-distribution features must be implemented.

  • Self-powered hubs (SPHs) must:
    • current-limit downstream ports
    • Report overcurrent conditions
  • BPHs must:
    • Enable and disable power to downstream ports
    • Power up at <100 mA
    • Limit inrush current (<44 Ω and 10 μF)
  • Functions must:
    • Limit inrush currents
    • Power up at <100 mA

The feature set of the TPS2553-Q1 device meets each of these requirements. The integrated current-limiting and overcurrent reporting is required by self-powered hubs. The logic-level enable and controlled rise times meet the need of both input and output ports on USB-powered hubs and the input ports for USB-powered functions.
