Peripheral USB-C

SBC ORCA

In SBC Orca two USB-C ports were mounted, that is:

• USB-C 1
• USB-C 2

USB-C 1

The USB-C 1 port is used to power-supply the board and for the transfer of data by Downstream-Facing Port (DFP) mode.

In U-Boot you can use this port only to power-supply the board and not for data transfer.

In Linux you can use this port for data transfer.

For more information, refer to the example in USB1 OTG.

The connector that is inserted in this port works in both verses.

USB-C 2

The USB-C 2 port is used for data transfer.

In U-Boot you can use this port to transmit data with an external device and to use the UUU functionality of NXP.

In Linux you can use the dual-role data mode (DRD).

For more information, refer to the example in USB2 OTG.

The connector that is inserted in this port works in both verses.
