Product details
Overview
UCS1001-2-BP-TR from Microchip (formerly SMSC) is a USB port power controller with integrated charger emulation and wake-on-attach detection. It delivers up to 2.5 A continuous current via a 55 mΩ on-resistance power switch, supports BC1.2 CDP/DCP, Apple®, and YD/T-1591 charging protocols, and features ultra-low-power Detect state operation for battery-powered systems like notebooks and docking stations.
For engineers reviewing the UCS1001-2-BP-TR datasheet, UCS1001-2-BP-TR pinout, UCS1001-2-BP-TR application, or UCS1001-2-BP-TR equivalent, this device enables reliable USB port power control, automatic peripheral attachment detection, and multi-standard charger emulation without host intervention - critical for sleep-state wake-up and embedded USB charging subsystems.
Technical Context
The UCS1001-2-BP-TR operates in four distinct power states: Off, Sleep, Detect, and Active. In Detect state, it monitors VBUS for portable device attachment using low-current sensing (<10 µA quiescent), triggering A_DET# assertion to wake the system. Its dual-supply architecture (VS for power path, VDD for logic) enables standby operation while maintaining USB enumeration readiness.
Charger emulation is implemented via nine preloaded profiles applied across DPOUT/DMOUT pins, supporting signature-based (e.g., Legacy Apple) and handshake-based (e.g., BC1.2 CDP) modes. The USB 2.0 high-speed data switch remains active only in Pass-through and CDP modes, ensuring signal integrity compliance (eye diagram verified per USB-IF spec) while isolating data lines during DCP/DCE operation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Continuous Current Rating | 2.5 A - supports full USB BC1.2 DCP/CDP loads without external current-sense resistors |
| Power Switch RDS(on) | 55 mΩ - minimizes voltage drop and thermal dissipation at 2.5 A (≤137.5 mW conduction loss) |
| Operating Voltage Range | 2.9 V to 5.5 V on VS - compatible with USB VBUS, battery-backed rails, and wide-input AC-DC adapters |
| Detect-State Quiescent Current | <10 µA - enables long-term attachment monitoring in notebook sleep mode without battery drain |
| Charging Protocol Coverage | USB-IF BC1.2 CDP/SDP/DCP, YD/T-1591 (2009), Apple® 1/2/3, RIM - nine preloaded profiles ensure broad legacy device compatibility |
| ESD Immunity | IEC61000-4-2 ±8 kV contact / ±15 kV air - meets industrial-grade USB port surge requirements |

Pinout & Package
UCS1001-2-BP-TR is housed in a 20-pin QFN package (4 mm × 4 mm, 0.5 mm pitch) with exposed thermal pad. Pin numbering follows standard QFN layout; GND FLAG pin (Pin 16) provides dedicated ground reference for noise-sensitive analog circuits.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A_DET# (Pin 16) | Open-drain attach detection output | Asserts low when portable device insertion is confirmed in Detect state - directly interfaces with SoC wake-interrupt inputs |
| VBUS1/VBUS2 (Pins 3,4) | Power switch output terminals | Must be tied together externally; deliver switched 5 V to downstream USB port with ≤55 mΩ path resistance |
| VS1/VS2 (Pins 11,20) | Main power input for switch FET | Accepts 2.9–5.5 V source; powers internal high-side switch and current-limit circuitry |
| VDD (Pin 12) | Digital logic supply | Independent 2.9–5.5 V rail enables split-supply operation - allows logic to remain active while VS is off or in low-power mode |
| DPOUT/DMOUT (Pins 8,13) | Charger emulation signaling outputs | Drive USB data lines with programmable voltage signatures (e.g., DCP short, CDP voltage dividers) to emulate specific chargers |
| ALERT# (Pin 15) | Fault reporting output | Open-drain alert for over-current, over-temperature, UVLO/OVLO, or back-drive events - requires external pull-up |
| PWR_EN (Pin 14) | Active-high or active-low enable input | Polarity selected by SEL pin; controls power switch gate drive - enables system-level sequencing and fault recovery |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Wake-on-Attach Detection | Sub-10 µA Detect-state current enables persistent USB port monitoring during system sleep - eliminates need for host polling or auxiliary sensors |
| Dynamic Thermal Management | Automatic reduction of current limit and switching frequency when die temperature approaches regulation threshold - prevents thermal shutdown during sustained 2.5 A loads |
| Back-Drive & Back-Voltage Protection | Prevents reverse current flow from VBUS into VS or VDD rails during hot-plug or adapter removal - protects upstream power sources and system stability |
| Selectable Fault Recovery | Latch or auto-recovery mode configurable via LATCH pin - supports safety-critical latched shutdown or self-healing behavior for consumer applications |
| BC1.2 VBUS Discharge Function | Actively discharges VBUS to <1 V within 1 s after fault or disable - ensures clean renegotiation and compliance with USB-IF port reset timing |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar USB port power control applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TUSB246IRHBR | Single-chip USB Type-C PD sink controller; lacks native BC1.2 DCP/CDP emulation and A_DET# wake output | Requires external MCU for legacy charger support; no low-power Detect state for wake-on-attach | Choose for Type-C PD-only designs where BC1.2 backward compatibility is not required |
| TPS2546RTER | USB 2.0 charging detector with integrated 2.5 A switch; supports BC1.2 but only 3 fixed profiles (no Apple/RIM) | No A_DET# output; relies on host polling or GPIO monitoring for attachment detection | Choose when cost sensitivity outweighs need for broad legacy charging coverage and autonomous wake capability |
Compared with TUSB246IRHBR and TPS2546RTER, UCS1001-2-BP-TR uniquely combines ultra-low-power wake-on-attach, nine-profile charger emulation, and BC1.2-compliant data switching - making it the only single-chip solution for legacy-aware, sleep-optimized USB charging in notebooks and docks.

FAQ
What is the primary function of the A_DET# pin on the UCS1001-2-BP-TR?
The A_DET# pin on the UCS1001-2-BP-TR is an open-drain output that asserts low when a portable device is detected on the USB port during Detect state operation. It enables system wake-up from S3/S4 sleep without host polling, consuming less than 10 µA in standby - a core differentiator from the UCS1001-1-BP-TR, which uses CHRG# instead.
How does the UCS1001-2-BP-TR handle USB charger protocol negotiation?
The UCS1001-2-BP-TR implements nine preloaded charger emulation profiles applied to DPOUT/DMOUT pins, covering USB-IF BC1.2 CDP/DCP, YD/T-1591, Apple® (1/2/3), and RIM protocols. It automatically cycles through profiles until handshake success or defaults to constant-current DCP mode - all without host software intervention.
Can the UCS1001-2-BP-TR operate with separate VS and VDD supplies?
Yes - the UCS1001-2-BP-TR supports split-supply operation: VS (Pins 11,20) powers the high-side switch and current-limit circuitry (2.9–5.5 V), while VDD (Pin 12) powers digital logic (also 2.9–5.5 V). This enables ultra-low-power Detect state operation even when VS is unpowered, a key feature for battery-backed systems.
What protection features does the UCS1001-2-BP-TR include beyond over-current limiting?
In addition to over-current limit (OCL), the UCS1001-2-BP-TR integrates under-voltage lockout (UVLO) and over-voltage lockout (OVLO) on VS, back-drive current protection, back-voltage detection, dynamic thermal management, and IEC61000-4-2 ±15 kV air-gap ESD immunity - providing comprehensive fault resilience for unattended USB ports.
Is the UCS1001-2-BP-TR pin-compatible with the UCS1001-1-BP-TR?
No - while both share the same 20-pin QFN package and most signal pins, UCS1001-2-BP-TR substitutes A_DET# (Pin 16) for CHRG# (Pin 16 on UCS1001-1-BP-TR). This functional difference requires PCB layout revision; they are not drop-in replacements despite identical footprints and thermal characteristics.
