1. Introduction
The CBTL08GP053 is a high performance integrated circuit (IC) capable of switching
high-speed differential signals in a variety of USB Type-C systems. The CBTL08GP053
device allows a variety of system side signals to interface with USB Type-C connectors,
including:
• USB 3.1
• DisplayPort 1.3 and DP++
• PCIe 3.0
• Differential AUX or single-ended signals (UART, I2C, etc.)
The CBTL08GP053 is controllable via an I2C interface and can be used with downward
facing ports (DFP) or upward facing ports (UFP) in laptop and desktop PCs, tablets,
smartphones, display monitors, and other peripherals or accessories containing a USB
Type-C connector. All of the functionality is available in a low power and space-saving
VFBGA package. Please refer to CBTL08GP053 datasheet [1] for more details.

CBTL08GP053 Programmer's Guide
The CBTL08GP053 contains four high-speed 3:1 multiplexers to support bidirectional
high-speed differential signaling up to 8 GHz. There is also a single 2:1 multiplexer with a
full crossbar switch to support bidirectional differential and single-ended signals up to
750 MHz. Typically OP1 to OP5 are connected to the USB Type-C connector while IP1 to
IP8 along with the I2C-bus signals (I2C_CLK, I2C_SDA) are connected to the local
system.
2.1 I2C Interface
CBTL08GP053 supports a maximum of four I2C-bus slave address options. The 7-bit
address is selected through the SLV_ADDR1 and SLV_ADDR2 pins. Table 1 shows the
different I2C-bus device address options based on pin values.

CBTL08GP053 supports data transfers at both Standard-mode (100 kHz) and Fast-mode
(400 kHz) clock rates as defined in the I2C-bus specification (see UM10204). An example
of a typical I2C write and read sequence is shown in Fig 2. Please refer to CBTL08GP053
datasheet for complete list of supported I2C-bus transactions.

2.2 Operating modes
The register map for CBTL08GP053 is presented in Table 2. After power up, the default
register values initialize the device in a lower power standby mode where all signal
pathways are not connected (Hi-Z state). I2C write commands are then required to put

CBTL08GP053 active mode operation requires that both the SW_EN pin be set to logical
“high” voltage level and the SWITCH_EN bit (SYS_CTRL[7]) set to ‘1’. Subsequent
changes to either the SW_EN pin or the SWITCH_EN bit will return the device to standby
condition but the remaining register contents will remain unchanged. Please refer to
CBTL08GP053 datasheet for start-up time (tstartup) characteristics when switching
between standby and active modes of operation.
During active mode operation the customer application may want to change the switch
configuration using an I2C write command to the SW_CTRL register. A reconfiguration
time interval (trcfg) from the final I2C clock bit is required before the switch starts operating
with the new settings.
Note: Usually OP1_CTRL, OP2_CTRL, OP3_CTRL, OP4_CTRL, OP5_CTRL, and
CROSS5_CTRL should be preloaded with required and valid settings before writing to
SW_CTRL.

3. Application Use Cases: DisplayPort Alt Mode for USB Type-C
CBTL08GP053 is ideally suited for applications where a variety of different high-speed
signals have to be routed over a single connector. One major application example is
using DisplayPort as an Alternate Mode for USB Type-C connectors. This specification
[2] defines the connectivity between the USB Type-C receptacle pinout and DisplayPort
(DP) high-speed signals along with the number of lanes and signaling rates for various
scenarios. The DP Alt Mode standard also specifies the pin configurations for both
downward facing ports (DFP) and upward facing ports (UFP). DFP are typically found in
host systems such as laptop/desktop PCs and tablets while UFP are located in peripheral
systems such as display monitors and docks. Please contact NXP for examples of
application reference designs for both DFP and UFP Type-C systems.
Fig 3 shows the front view of a DFP or UFP USB Type-C receptacle. There are four highspeed differential pairs (TX1+/-, TX2+/-, RX1+/-, RX2+/-) that support DP 1.3 data
signaling rates. In addition SBU1 and SBU2 are lower bandwidth pathways that can be
used for DP AUX signaling. USB 2.0 traffic is carried by the D+/- signals while the
remaining signals (VBUS, CC1, CC2, GND) must support and be compatible with the
USB Power Delivery (PD) specification [3] and Universal Serial Bus Type-C Cable and
Connector Specification [4].

Table 3 lists the DP Alt Mode usage cases supported by the CBTL08GP053. Please refer
to DP Alt Mode specification [2] and the CBTL08GP053 datasheet for more details.

CBTL08GP053 Programmer's Guide
The CBTL08GP053 is a versatile high performance switch that can be used in a variety
of configurations and applications. A recommended connection to support most DP Alt
Mode usage cases is presented in Fig 4. The described interface between a USB Type-C
receptacle and CBTL08GP053 is valid for both DFP and UFP applications. The
recommended pinout maintains good signal integrity in the printed circuit board (PCB)
layout by minimizing signal transitions for the high-speed signal pathways.

3.5 UFP Pin Assignment E
UFP Pin Assignment E is for use cases where a UFP Type-C connector in a display
monitor (sink) is connected to a DisplayPort-type source connector with a passive or
active cable. Such cable assemblies have unique features as defined in the DP Alt Mode
specification. For example note the signal inversion of the high-speed lines when
compared to other UFP pin assignments. In addition these cables will contain ACcoupling capacitors on 2 of the 4 high-speed lanes. The required pinout and signal
mappings are shown in Fig 13 and Fig 14. Table 12 and Table 13 show the relevant
register maps for the CBTL08GP053 respectively.

3.6 DP Alt Mode Standby Modes
Various usage cases have been presented in the previous sections to support DP Alt
Mode functionality over Type-C connectors with the CBTL08GP053. There are also other
configurations for the CBTL08GP053 that can be used as “safe” transition states
between different DP Alt Mode pin assignments. Some possible options for DP standby
modes for both DFP and UFP are presented in the following Tables. Please contact NXP
for further specific implementation details.
