TCPP03-M20 with STM32G0B1CBT6 failed to connect

[PaulMinh]

Hello Expert,

 

Could you please provide guidance on the issue below? 

 

We are using the following setup:

- MCU: STM32G0B1CCTx

- Software: X-CUBE-TCPP 4.2.0 with USBPD Application 4.2.0 Dual Role

- Board Part: TCPP0203 v1.2.3

 

We are developing a USB PD board.

When we plug in an Android smartphone (USB Type-C port), the phone does not detect the connection.

Attached is the log showing three plug-in/plug-out attempts.(we plug in and out 3 times)

From the log, it appears that after attachment, the connection detaches immediately, then the roles switch, followed by another detachment.

We have already tried increasing the CAD source/sink toggle time from 100 ms to 144 ms, but the issue persists.

Could you advise on possible causes or solutions? Thanks.

When we try to plugin/out quickly, we chould see "USBPD_CAD_STATE_ATTACHED" state but not always.

Hello @PaulMinh 

Did you implement the user code provided in this example? Would you share minimum schematics with USB C connector? Compare with reference board design to narrow down the issue.

Hello FBL, 

We followed https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mJ4VX_2B6wE&t=839s , for our custom board (configured as in  MX_Config.PNG, SCH.pdf).

Hello FBL, 

What conditions, order to change from this state "USBPD_CAD_STATE_ATTACHED_WAIT" to "USBPD_CAD_STATE_ATTACHED"?

We concern there is an unstable internal resistor; debounce failed and then unable to ATTACHED.

May you suggest how to debug and fix this issue? Thanks.
