About

USB-C port controllers' portfolio

EZ-PD™ BCR is a highly integrated, pre-programmed USB Type-C charging port controller targeting all electronic devices with legacy barrel connectors up to 100 W or USB micro-B connectors. It easily adds USB-C power consumer capability to a device, allowing it to be powered by any USB-C power source, including USB-C chargers, power adapters, power banks, and in-wall or in-car charging ports. EZ-PD™ BCR complies with the latest USB Type-C and USB Power Delivery standards and allows designers to quickly convert their devices’ power input from a barrel connector to a USB-C connector without invasive changes to their existing designs.

Why choose EZ-PD™ BCR
  • Area and BOM saving thanks to the high degree of integration
  • The pre-programmed USB-C PD firmware and the configuration utility for parameter tuning speed up the design cycle and reduce time to market
  • Market-proven solution compatible with USB IF and PD standards to minimize implementation risks
  • Fixed firmware and a configurable solution to fit all applications without the need for programming
  • No in-depth knowledge of USB-C is required
  • Suitable for commercial or industrial applications
EZ-PD™ BCR applications

A growing number of products in the consumer, industrial, and communications segments are adopting USB-C ports to source power. Infineon offers dedicated solutions to integrate USB-C ports into customers' embedded applications. Typical use cases include smart speakers, cameras, headphones, game consoles, power tools, VR headsets, other portable electronics, and home appliances. As the leader in USB-C end-to-end solutions, Infineon also provides a comprehensive portfolio of solutions for USB-C chargers and power adapters.

Why move to USB Type-C?

Over ten billion USB ports will move to USB-C by 2025; mobiles, notebooks, and cars have already chosen this standard, and so will every common DC power source/sink up to 240 W in just a couple of years. The advantages of USB-C are several: plug orientation and cable direction agnostic, bidirectional power flow using USB-PD and negotiable voltage, and power up to 240 W. Moreover, by adopting a universal connector, companies can avoid including proprietary chargers for their products, significantly reducing the production of e-waste and their costs at the same time.
