Abstract:
Techniques for control of power switches in a USB Power Delivery (USB-PD) system are described herein. In an example embodiment, an integrated circuit comprises a programmable gate control circuit coupled to a provider field effect transistor (FET) and a consumer FET to provide control signals to the provider and consumer FETs in response to system conditions and application requirements of the USB-PD system. A pulldown current control circuit may provide additional control to slew rate for the slow turn-ON of provider and consumer FETs.

Claim (Index 3):
The USB power delivery circuit of  claim 2 , wherein the fault detection circuit is configured to detect fault conditions that include at least one of an over-voltage condition, an over-current condition, and under-voltage condition, and a reverse current condition.
