Product details

Overview

MPQ5031GRE-0013-AEC1-P from Monolithic Power Systems is an AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualified USB Type-C power delivery controller for single-port DFP (downstream-facing port) source applications. It implements full USB PD3.0 and PPS protocols, supports up to 100W power delivery, integrates BMC physical layer, protocol engine, and policy engine, and operates across 3.3V–21V bus voltage with 100µA standby IQ - deployed in automotive infotainment head units and USB-C charging ports.

For engineers reviewing the MPQ5031GRE-0013-AEC1-P datasheet, MPQ5031GRE-0013-AEC1-P pinout, MPQ5031GRE-0013-AEC1-P application, or MPQ5031GRE-0013-AEC1-P equivalent, key selection considerations include its AEC-Q100 qualification, integrated VCONN switch, CC1/CC2 high-voltage I/O tolerance (−0.3V to +24V), NTC-based thermal monitoring, and I2C-configurable PDO list for automotive-grade USB PD source design.

Technical Context

The MPQ5031GRE-0013-AEC1-P embeds a complete USB PD3.0 stack - including BMC transceiver, protocol layer, and policy engine - enabling autonomous negotiation of voltage/current profiles (including PPS) without host MCU intervention. Its dual-mode CC detection logic identifies UFP attachment via Rd pull-down on CC1 or CC2 and initiates VCONN sourcing only after RA detection.

It implements legacy charging auto-detection (BC1.2, QC3.0, FCP, Apple divider, 1.2V/1.2V) in parallel with PD negotiation, with automatic fallback to DCP when no PD contract is established. Load-shedding is triggered by either NTC overtemperature or low battery voltage (VBATT < 1.12V), disabling VDRV and isolating VBUS.

Equivalent & Alternatives

The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar USB PD source controller applications.

Alternative Part	Technical Difference	Application Difference	Selection Advice
STUSB4500QTR	Single-port PD3.0 controller with integrated VBUS switch; lacks native NTC input and AEC-Q100 qualification	Targeted at consumer docks and monitors; not validated for automotive temperature or reliability stress	Select when cost-sensitive non-automotive designs require integrated VBUS switch but do not require thermal monitoring or automotive qualification

FAQ

What USB PD specifications does MPQ5031GRE-0013-AEC1-P support?

The MPQ5031GRE-0013-AEC1-P fully supports USB PD3.0 and Programmable Power Supply (PPS) standards, including all mandatory control and data messages (Get_Source_Cap, PS_RDY, Accept, GoodCRC). It has passed official USB-IF certification at both 60W (TID 2313) and 100W (TID 2316) with compatible MPS DC/DC controllers (MPQ4230 and MPQ4214).

How does the MPQ5031GRE-0013-AEC1-P handle legacy charging protocols?

It implements a hardware state machine that automatically detects and configures for BC1.2, QC3.0, Huawei FCP, Apple 3A divider, and 1.2V/1.2V modes without MCU involvement. Detection starts in divider mode and transitions based on DP/DM voltage signatures and resistance measurements - e.g., DM=3.6V/DP=2.7V for Apple, or DP/DM short <40Ω for BC1.2.

What is the function of the NTC pin, and how is it used in thermal protection?

The NTC pin accepts a voltage divider formed by a fixed resistor (RP = 47kΩ) and an NTC thermistor. When the thermistor resistance drops below ~4.72kΩ (indicating ~100°C), the input voltage exceeds 9.1% of VCC, triggering immediate load-shedding - disabling VDRV and isolating VBUS. Recovery occurs when voltage falls below 16.7% VCC (~80°C), providing hysteresis.

Can MPQ5031GRE-0013-AEC1-P operate with a 12V automotive battery input?

Yes - its 3.3V to 21V bus voltage range directly supports 12V nominal (9V–16V) and 24V nominal (18V–32V) automotive battery systems. The VCC pin requires a regulated 5V supply (from an external DC/DC), while VBUS_P senses the raw battery rail for low-voltage load-shedding and PDO derating logic.

Does MPQ5031GRE-0013-AEC1-P support dual-role (DRP) functionality?

No - it is strictly a downstream-facing port (DFP) source-only controller. It does not implement UFP (sink) capability, VCONN sourcing for UFP roles, or DRP toggle logic. For dual-role applications, MPS recommends pairing with a companion sink controller or selecting a separate DRP-capable IC.

What is the purpose of the I2C_MODE pin, and how does it affect system architecture?

The I2C_MODE pin configures the MPQ5031GRE-0013-AEC1-P as either I2C master (pin floating or pulled low) or slave (pin pulled high). In master mode, it drives SCL/SDA to configure external DC/DC converters; in slave mode, it accepts commands from a host MCU - disabling GPIO5/GPIO6 functions and restricting I2C access to SDA/SCL only.

How is power sharing implemented between two USB-C ports using this IC?

Power sharing is enabled via GPIO2: when asserted high, it signals the MPQ5031GRE-0013-AEC1-P to reduce its PDO capabilities (e.g., cap at 45W instead of 100W) to reserve power budget for a second PD port. This hardware-based coordination avoids software synchronization and ensures deterministic power allocation in multi-port automotive systems.
