RTQ2118C-QA
USB Type-C DFP with Charging Port Controller and
Integrated 36V 3.5A Synchronous Buck Converter
General Description
The RTQ2118C combines a USB Type-C Downstream
Facing Port (DFP) controller, charging port controller
and a 3.5A synchronous buck converter.
Type C-to-B dongle. Type-A connector support is
provided by the RTQ2118C.
Features
The RTQ2118C monitors the Type-C Configuration
Channel (CC) lines to detect an Upstream Facing Port
(UFP) device attach event, then turns on external VBUS
MOSFET to apply power to VBUS and communicates
the selectable VBUS current sourcing capability.
⚫ USB Type-C DFP Controller
Compliant to USB-IF standards
USB Type-C Specification Release 2.0
CC Logic, VCONN Source
VCONN 1W
The RTQ2118C provides the electrical signatures on
D+/D- to support charging schemes compatible with the
USB 2.0 Battery Charging Specification BC1.2 and
Chinese Telecommunication Industry Standard YD/T
1591-2009. Auto-detect mode is also integrated which
supports USB 2.0 Battery Charging Specification BC1.2
Dedicated Charging Port (DCP), Divider 3 mode and
1.2V shorted mode to comply with the legacy fast
charging mode of mobile devices.

⚫ 36V 3.5A Synchronous Buck Converter
3V to 36V Input Voltage Range
3.5A Continuous Output Current
CC/CV Mode Control
The RTQ2118C integrates a high efficiency, monolithic
synchronous buck converter that can deliver up to 3.5A
output current from a 3V to 36V wide range input supply
and is protected from load-dump transients up to 42V.
Adjustable and Synchronizable Switching
Frequency : 300kHz to 2.2MHz
Selectable PSM/PWM at Light Load
Adjustable Soft-Start
The RTQ2118C has constant current control to achieve
adjustable USB current limit and implement the current
sense signal for adjustable USB power output voltage
with load line compensation. The converter includes
optional spread-spectrum frequency modulation to
overcome EMI issue and complete protection for safe
and smooth operation in all applied conditions.
Protection features include cycle-by-cycle current limit
for protection against shorted outputs, soft-start control
to eliminate input current surge during start-up, input
under-voltage lockout, output under-voltage protection,
output over-voltage protection and over-temperature
protection.
