Abstract:
A power supply architecture for USB Type-C controllers is described herein. In an example embodiment, an integrated circuit (IC) controller comprises a power rail, a VDDD terminal, a VCONN terminal, and a VBUS terminal. The VDDD terminal, the VCONN terminal, and the VBUS terminal are coupled to the power rail, where a VCONN switch is coupled between the VCONN terminal and the power rail, and a VBUS regulator is coupled between the VBUS terminal and the power rail. The power rail is coupled to internal circuits of the IC controller and is configured to provide operating power to the internal circuits from any one of the VCONN terminal and the VBUS terminal.

Claim (Index 17):
The method of  claim 16 , further comprising limiting an output voltage from the VCONN switch to the power rail to no more than 6V during the short event.
