Product details
Overview
UCS1002-2-BP from SMSC is a programmable USB port power controller with integrated charger emulation, designed for precise 2.5 A current switching, BC1.2/CDP/DCP/YD/T-1591/Apple/RIM protocol support, and ultra-low-power attach detection in battery-operated systems like notebooks and docking stations.
For engineers reviewing the UCS1002-2-BP datasheet, UCS1002-2-BP pinout, UCS1002-2-BP application, or UCS1002-2-BP equivalent, this device delivers configurable current limiting, SMBus/I²C-controlled charger profile cycling, VBUS discharge, Battery Full mode, and thermal management - all in a 20-pin QFN 4 mm × 4 mm package.
Technical Context
The UCS1002-2-BP implements a dual-supply architecture (VS for power path, VDD for logic), enabling wake-on-attach functionality from system sleep/off states. Its USB 2.0 high-speed data switch operates in Pass-through and CDP modes with full compliance.
Charger emulation uses nine preloaded profiles plus one customizable stimulus-response sequence for proprietary handshake support. Fault handling supports both latch and auto-recovery modes with low-test-current recovery, and current monitoring provides real-time IBUS measurement via SMBus registers.

Pinout & Package
UCS1002-2-BP is housed in a RoHS-compliant 20-pin QFN package measuring 4 mm × 4 mm with 0.5 mm pitch and exposed thermal pad.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VDD | Logic supply input | Provides regulated 3.3 V power to internal logic; decoupling required for stable SMBus communication |
| VS | Power path input | Accepts 2.9–5.5 V source; powers USB VBUS output and enables split-supply standby operation |
| PWR_EN | Power switch enable | Active-high control signal; toggling enables/disables VBUS output and initiates soft-start sequence |
| A_DET# | Attach detection output | Open-drain signal asserted low on USB device insertion; supports wake-from-sleep in battery-powered systems |
| ALERT# | Fault alert output | Open-drain indicator for over-current, over-temperature, UVLO/OVLO, or back-drive events |
| DPIN/DMIN | USB upstream data inputs | Connect to host-side D+ and D− lines; routed through internal high-speed switch to DPOUT/DMOUT |
| DPOUT/DMOUT | USB downstream data outputs | Deliver pass-through or charger-emulated signals to attached peripheral; compliant with USB 2.0 HS timing |
| COMM_SEL / ILIM | Mode select / current limit config | Hardware pin selects SMBus vs. stand-alone mode and sets default current limit threshold |
| SEL | Emulation profile select | Binary-encoded input selecting among preloaded charger profiles or enabling custom emulation mode |
| GND | Ground reference | Common return for VS, VDD, and signal paths; must be connected to thermal pad for thermal performance |
Key Features

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| TI TPS65987D | Integrated USB-C PD controller with 20 V support; lacks native BC1.2 DCP/CDP emulation and requires external resistors for legacy charging | Targeted at USB-C PD designs; not drop-in compatible for USB-A-only systems requiring Apple/YD/T-1591 support | Select when designing new USB-C systems needing programmable PD contract negotiation and higher voltage capability |
| ON Semiconductor NCP380 | Fixed 2.1 A current limit, no charger emulation, no SMBus interface, no attach detection - purely a power switch | Suitable only for basic over-current protection in non-charging USB hubs or peripherals | Choose only if BC1.2/Apple emulation, current monitoring, or wake-on-attach are unnecessary |
Compared with TPS65987D and NCP380, the UCS1002-2-BP uniquely combines legacy USB-A charging protocol support, ultra-low-power attach detection, and SMBus-configurable current limiting - making it irreplaceable in cost-sensitive, battery-aware USB-A host systems requiring broad peripheral compatibility.

FAQ
What is the primary function of the UCS1002-2-BP in a USB system?
The UCS1002-2-BP serves as a programmable USB port power controller that manages VBUS switching, enforces current limits up to 2.5 A, detects device attachment in ultra-low-power states, and emulates multiple charging protocols including BC1.2, Apple, and YD/T-1591. It integrates these functions into a single 20-pin QFN package to simplify USB power architecture in host systems.
Does the UCS1002-2-BP support USB 2.0 high-speed data switching?
Yes, the UCS1002-2-BP includes a fully compliant USB 2.0 high-speed data switch that operates in Pass-through and CDP modes. It preserves signal integrity with minimal insertion loss and meets USB-IF HS electrical specifications, enabling simultaneous data transfer and charging without external multiplexers.
How does the UCS1002-2-BP handle over-current conditions?
The UCS1002-2-BP supports two fault-handling modes: latch and auto-recovery. In auto-recovery mode, it enters low-test-current recovery after over-current detection and attempts automatic reset. In latch mode, it disables VBUS until manually cleared via SMBus or PWR_EN toggle. Both modes include dynamic thermal derating to prevent damage.
Can the UCS1002-2-BP operate from a single supply, or does it require split supplies?
The UCS1002-2-BP supports both configurations: VS powers the switching FET and VDD powers the logic. Split supply (e.g., VS = 5 V, VDD = 3.3 V) enables ultra-low-power Detect state operation (<10 µA), while single-supply operation (VS = VDD = 3.3 V) is possible but disables wake-on-attach functionality. The choice depends on system power-state requirements.
What charger emulation profiles are built into the UCS1002-2-BP?
The UCS1002-2-BP includes nine preloaded charger emulation profiles covering USB-IF BC1.2 CDP and DCP, YD/T-1591 (2009), and major Apple and RIM variants. It also provides one fully customizable profile using a unique stimulus-response method, allowing support for proprietary or emerging charging signatures without hardware changes.
