Abstract
In one embodiment, a system includes a power delivery ('PD') controller in a USB Type-C system that includes a configuration channel ('CC'), PD preamble detector, and a power-usage circuit. The PD controller includes a CC input that receives a PD message. The PD preamble detector is configured to detect a PD message preamble based in part upon a power of a filtered PD message and communicates a wake-up signal to the power-usage circuit in response to detecting a PD message preamble. The power-usage circuit is configured to exit a low-power mode in response to receiving the wake-up signal.
