Abstract
A USB-C controller, disposed on an integrated circuit (IC), comprises a first pair of terminals to communicate with a first communication protocol that is other than USB, a second pair of terminals to communicate with a second communication protocol that is other than USB, and a third pair of terminals, each of which is to be coupled to a corresponding SBU1 terminal or SBU2 terminal of a Type-C receptacle. The USB-C controller further includes: a multiplexer to selectively couple the first pair of terminals to the third pair of terminals and the second pair of terminals to the third pair of terminals: and logic to control the multiplexer according to a mode enabled within a configuration channel (CC) signal.
