The TMDSHSECDOCK 180-pin docking station is available for purchase through Texas Instruments. The docking station is a baseboard that enables rapid prototyping. There is a power switch on the docking station that determines whether power to the control card is supplied by the 5V connector or USB connector.
The AM263Px Control Card has a power mux (TPS2121RUXT) that supplies power from the Type-C connection as long as the voltage supplied by the Type-C connection is equal to or greater than the voltage supplied by the HSEC docking station. Therefore, if both a Type-C connection is present and the control card is connected to a powered HSEC docking station, then the power mux routes the Type-C supplied voltage to VMAIN of the control card. If there is no Type-C connection and voltage is being supplied through the HSEC docking station, then the power mux routes that voltage to VMAIN of the control card.
For more information on the docking station, refer to the Informational Guide.
