Product details
Overview
P-NUCLEO-USB002 from STMicroelectronics is a USB Type-C™ and Power Delivery™ development kit comprising the NUCLEO-F072RB control board and a dual-port PD expansion board centered on two STUSB1602 certified USB Type-C™ port controllers, supporting DRP/Sink/Source roles, 20 V high-voltage operation, VBUS/VCONN switching and discharge, and USB 2.0 full-speed data interface for rapid prototyping of USB PD applications.
For engineers reviewing the P-NUCLEO-USB002 datasheet, P-NUCLEO-USB002 pinout, P-NUCLEO-USB002 application, or P-NUCLEO-USB002 equivalent, this kit delivers validated hardware-software integration with X-CUBE-USB-PD v2.0 firmware, dual STUSB1602 controllers, STM32F072RB MCU (128 kB Flash, 16 kB SRAM), and configurable power-role support across two fully featured Type-C™ ports.
Technical Context
The kit implements a complete USB Type-C™ and Power Delivery 2.0 system architecture: the NUCLEO-F072RB hosts the X-CUBE-USB-PD stack and manages two independent STUSB1602 controllers, each integrating a Type-C™ state machine, BMC transceiver, 22 V CC-line protection, and VBUS gate drivers. The expansion board provides discrete VBUS current sensing, dual DRP ports, and dedicated 5 V VCONN supply capability.
Hardware-level features include attach/detach and cable orientation detection per port, dead-battery support, integrated VBUS & VCONN discharge paths, and flexible USB 2.0 signal routing-either mapped to either Type-C™ port or configured in pass-through mode-enabling real-world PD role negotiation and policy engine validation.

FAQ
Does P-NUCLEO-USB002 support USB Power Delivery 3.0?
No. The kit implements USB Power Delivery specification revision 2.0, as confirmed by ST's X-CUBE-USB-PD software stack and STUSB1602 controller datasheet. It does not support PD 3.0 features such as Fast Role Swap or extended message types. Firmware updates are limited to ST's officially released PD 2.0-compliant versions.
Can the two STUSB1602 controllers operate independently with different power roles?
Yes. Each STUSB1602 is individually configurable via the STM32F072RB host MCU to act as Source, Sink, or DRP-enabling simultaneous negotiation of distinct power contracts (e.g., one port as 20 V/3 A Source, the other as 5 V/1.5 A Sink). Role assignment is controlled through X-CUBE-USB-PD policy engine APIs.
Is external power required to test VBUS delivery above 5 V?
Yes. The expansion board includes a dedicated power connector for external DC input (not included) to generate VBUS profiles beyond USB default 5 V-such as 9 V, 15 V, or 20 V-required for PD contract negotiation. The NUCLEO-F072RB alone powers only logic and debug circuits, not high-voltage VBUS rails.
What USB 2.0 functionality is exposed on the Type-C™ ports?
Both Type-C™ ports provide full-speed (12 Mbps) USB 2.0 differential D+/D− signals routed through onboard USB-A receptacles on the expansion board. These signals are software-mappable to either port or enabled in pass-through mode, allowing host-peripheral emulation or inter-port bridging under X-CUBE-USB-PD control.
