STM32U575I-EV - This eval board is supposed to source power to the USB-C connection but as far as I can tell, my board does not. Are there additional configuration steps I need to take for the board to source USB power?

 I am using the UX_Host_MSC example project. When a connect a USB drive to the USB-C port, the demo app detects a physical connection but power is never activated.

According to schematics and UM2854, UCPD (USB-C Power Delivery) is handled by a dedicated chip, TCPP03. Is that chip handled in the example project you've mentioned? If not, isn't there a dedicated example project for UCPD?

Thanks JW. The project is designed to support the TCPP03. I discovered my mistake in re-reading the "ReadMe" file. JP25 (power control block) is NOT mutually exclusive. It required both the power source (5V_EXT for example) AND 5V_UCPD in order to source USB power. I had originally assumed JP25 only specified the main power provider.

Ah. That board is complex indeed, even in the basics i.e. power supplies.

Thanks for coming back with the solution. Please select you post a Best do that the thread is marked as solved.
