MPQ5031GRE-0015-AEC1-Z

Overview

The MPQ5031GRE-0015-AEC1-Z is a single-port USB Power Delivery (PD) controller designed exclusively for source applications. It complies with USB Type-C 2.0 and USB PD 3.0 specifications. The device operates within a supply voltage range of 4.6 V to 5.5 V, with a typical operating current of 25 mA. It supports an I2C interface for configuration and control. The component is qualified under AEC-Q100 standards for automotive reliability and functions reliably across an extended temperature range from -40°C to +125°C. It is housed in a QFN-20 surface-mount package.

Feature Summary

• Supports USB Type-C 2.0 and USB PD 3.0 protocols for source-only configurations
• AEC-Q100 qualified for automotive-grade reliability requirements
• Utilizes I2C interface for system integration and control

Applications

• Automotive infotainment systems requiring USB charging ports
• Vehicle dock stations and connectivity hubs
• In-car power distribution units with USB PD capabilities

Procurement Notes

Verify the complete part number including suffixes such as -AEC1-Z to ensure correct automotive qualification and packaging. Confirm that the design requires a source-only controller, as this component does not support sink or dual-role operations. Cross-reference the QFN-20 footprint and I2C interface requirements with the host system schematic before finalizing procurement decisions.

Selection Notes

Select this component when designing automotive USB sources that strictly adhere to USB PD 3.0 standards. It is suitable for applications where the USB port provides power only, without accepting input. Ensure the host microcontroller can manage the I2C communication protocol required for PD negotiation. This controller is appropriate for environments demanding high thermal stability and automotive certification.

Part Context

This component belongs to the MPQ5031 series from Monolithic Power Systems, which focuses on USB Type-C and Power Delivery solutions. The series includes variants tailored for different roles and specifications. The MPQ5031 specifically addresses the need for reliable, certified source controllers in automotive and industrial sectors, providing a standardized interface for modern USB charging protocols.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes are not explicitly listed in public documentation. Evaluate other MPS USB PD controllers within the same family for functional compatibility. Verify pinout alignment and I2C address settings if considering alternative source-only controllers from other manufacturers.
