3.1.1 I2C Interfaces of PD Controller - TPS65994

There are three I2C interfaces, the first of which connects the MCU debug interface to the PD controller and functions as an I2C device. The independent host platform interface is connected via the second I2C interface, which likewise functions as an I2C device. By using this interface, the host CPU (in this case, Intel) instructs the PD controller to provide status information on the connected USB Type-C devices. The third I2C interface controls the redrivers (TUSB1104 and TUSB1044) and the DC/DC converter (TPS55288) as an I2C controller. Through this I2C interface, the PD controller programs the output voltage of DC/DC converters and controls the redrivers for various configurations summarized in Table 3-2 and Table 3-3.
