USB CDP (charging downstream port) charging over Chipidea HDRC in host mode

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I would like to add CDP (charging downstream port) capability over my
OTG port in host mode. I am using an iMX6q platform with Chipidea HDRC
(highspeed dual role controller) with 4.1 kernel.

Looked at a bunch of documents like USB Battery Charging Specification
and USB Power Delivery specification, it is clear that there is a
handshake over D+ and D- before enumeration to identify whether a host
supports CDP or not. It occurs in two steps. A primary handshake to
detect SDP vs CDP/ DCP where host will respond with D- voltage greater
than 0.3 V and less than 0.8 V. A secondary handshake to detect CDP vs
DCP where DCP will be indicated witha response of D+ voltage greater
than 0.3 V and less than 0.8 V.

I believe the handshake can only be supported by using a CDP emulator
or a USB charging port controller. But I would like to investigate the
possibility of achieving this handshake with only driver changes in
PHY or controller i.e. without any additional hardware chips or
circuitry.

Does anyone have any viewpoints on whether CDP charging can be
achieved without any additional hardware changes over Chipidea HDRC in
host mode?

Thank you.
