Product details
Overview
UCS1003-1-BP from Microchip Technology is a USB port power controller with integrated charger emulation and programmable current monitoring. It delivers up to 3.0A continuous current (2.85A typical) with 55 mΩ on-resistance, supports SMBus 2.0/I²C configuration, and enables wake-on-attach detection in low-power states for battery-powered systems.
For engineers reviewing the UCS1003-1-BP datasheet, UCS1003-1-BP pinout, UCS1003-1-BP application, or UCS1003-1-BP equivalent, this device serves as a fully managed USB power switch for notebook docking stations, AC-DC adapters, and embedded host systems requiring BC1.2/CDP/DCP charging compliance, real-time current rationing, and thermal-aware fault handling.
Technical Context
The UCS1003-1-BP integrates a high-side power switch, USB 2.0 high-speed data pass-through switch, and intelligent charger emulator supporting nine preloaded profiles plus one custom SMBus-programmable profile. Its dual-mode current limiting-overcurrent trip or constant-current-operates across 2.9V–5.5V source voltage with dynamic thermal regulation at 110°C and shutdown at 135°C.
It implements attach detection via A_DET# open-drain output, supports split VS/VDD supply for standby power optimization, and provides real-time current measurement (±2% accuracy above 180 mA) with 11.72 mA LSB resolution and programmable update timing (200–1600 ms). All control logic, including EM_EN, PWR_EN, and ALERT#, is synchronized to internal state machines with defined timing windows for fault recovery and discharge.

| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TUSB211IRWBR | USB 2.0 redriver only; no power switching, no charger emulation, no current monitoring | Used solely for signal integrity restoration-not for power management or charging | Select when only HS signal boost is needed; not a functional substitute for UCS1003-1-BP |

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous current rating of the UCS1003-1-BP?
The UCS1003-1-BP supports up to 3.0A continuous current with a typical on-resistance of 55 mΩ. This rating is validated across the full operating temperature range (–40°C to +85°C) and enables full 12W USB BC1.2 charging without external FETs or heatsinking in standard PCB layouts.
Does the UCS1003-1-BP support custom USB charger emulation profiles?
Yes, the UCS1003-1-BP includes one fully programmable charger emulation profile accessible via its SMBus 2.0/I²C interface. This allows engineers to define custom D+/D– impedance signatures and timing sequences to support proprietary or newly released portable devices beyond the nine preloaded BC1.2/YD/T-1591/Apple/Samsung profiles.
How does the UCS1003-1-BP handle thermal overload conditions?
The UCS1003-1-BP implements dual-stage thermal protection: dynamic regulation begins at 110°C (with 10°C hysteresis) to reduce current limit gradually, and hard thermal shutdown occurs at 135°C (35°C hysteresis). Both thresholds are die-temperature measured and ensure safe operation under sustained overload or poor PCB thermal design.
Can the UCS1003-1-BP operate with separate VS and VDD supplies?
Yes, the UCS1003-1-BP supports split-supply operation where VS (power switch input) and VDD (logic supply) are independently powered. This enables ultra-low-power attach detection (<15 µA sleep current) while keeping VDD active for wake signaling-ideal for battery-powered hosts that must detect peripherals in OFF or deep-sleep states.
What is the accuracy and resolution of current measurement in the UCS1003-1-BP?
The UCS1003-1-BP provides current measurement with ±2% accuracy for loads above 180 mA and ±2 LSB accuracy below that threshold. Its 12-bit ADC delivers 11.72 mA per LSB resolution across a 0–2988.6 mA full-scale range, enabling precise charge rationing and battery life modeling in real time.
