Definitions

This section reviews some keywords and definitions within this document. Definitions based on the USB Power Delivery Specification Revision 3.1 www.usb.org/developers/docs.

PD Controller/Device
Power Delivery Controller/Device
Refers to the USB-PD capable device sending/receiving USB-PD protocol comunications
PDO
Power Data Object
Data Object used to expose a Source Port's or Sink Port's power Capabilities as part of a Source_Capabilities/EPR_Source_Capabilities or Sink_Capabilities/EPR_Sink_Capabilities Message respectively.
RDO
Request Data Object
Data Object the PD sink uses to request a specific PDO from the PD source
SPR
Standard Power Range
Only the Source_Capabilities and the Request Messages are allowed to Negotiate SPR Explicit Contracts. The EPR Messages (the EPR_Source_Capabilities Message and the EPR_Request Message) are not allowed to be used while in SPR Mode. SPR range is 5V-20V going up to 100W (20V at 5A)
EPR
Extended Power Range
Extends the power range from a maximum of 100W (SPR) to a maximum of 240W (EPR). When operating in the EPR Mode, only EPR specific Messages (the EPR_Source_Capabilities Message and the EPR_Request Message) are used to Negotiate Explicit Contracts. EPR range is 5V-48V going up to 240W (48V at 5A)
PP_EXT/PPHV_EN/PP_EN
Power Path External/Power Path High Voltage Enable/Power Path Enable
These are generic names for the power path used in TI PD Controllers to designate the high-voltage (>5V) when the PD controller is conusming power (PD is the sink)
