5.6.2.4 VBUS Pulsing with Pull-up and Pull-down Resistors
In addition to the internal VBUS comparators, the USB3320 also includes the integrated VBUS pull-up
and pull-down resistors used for VBUS Pulsing during OTG Session Request Protocol. To discharge
the VBUS voltage so that a Session Request can begin, the USB3320 provides a pull-down resistor
from VBUS to Ground. This resistor is controlled by the DischargeVbus bit 3 of the OTG Control
register. The pull-up resistor is connected between VBUS and VDD33. This resistor is used to pull
VBUS above 2.1 volts so that the A-Device knows that a USB session has been requested. The state
of the pull-up resistor is controlled by the bit 4 ChargeVbus of the OTG Control register. The Pull-Up
and Pull-Down resistor values are detailed in Ta ble 4 .7 .
The internal VBUS Pull-up and Pull-down resistors are designed to include the R
VBUS
external resistor
in series. This external resistor is used by the VBUS Overvoltage protection described below.
5.6.2.5 VBUS Input Impedance
The OTG Supplement requires an A-Device that supports Session Request Protocol to have a VBUS
input impedance less than 100kΩ and greater the 40kΩ to ground. The USB3320 provides a 75kΩ
resistance to ground, R
VB
. The R
VB
resistor tolerance is detailed in Ta b le 4 .7 .
5.6.2.6 VBUS Overvoltage Protection
The USB3320 provides an integrated overvoltage protection circuit to protect the VBUS pin from
excessive voltages that may be present at the USB connector. The overvoltage protection circuit works
with an external resistor (R
VBUS
) by drawing current across the resistor to reduce the voltage at the
VBUS pin.
When voltage at the VBUS pin exceeds 5.5V, the Overvoltage Protection block will sink current to
ground until VBUS is below 5.5V. The current drops the excess voltage across R
VBUS
and protects the
USB3320 VBUS pin. The required R
VBUS
value is dependent on the operating mode of the USB3320
as shown in Table 5.7.
The Overvoltage Protection circuit is designed to protect the USB3320 from continuous voltages up to
30V on the R
VBUS
resistor.
The R
VBUS
resistor must be sized to handle the power dissipated across the resistor. The resistor
power can be found using the equation below:
