X-CUBE-TCPP is an STMicroelectronics original initiative. It uses for USB Type-C and Power Delivery software expansion for STM32Cube (UM2285).
X-CUBE-TCPP is a USB-IF certified Expansion Package (USB Type-C Rev 2.0 and Power Delivery 3.1) and consists of libraries, drivers, sources, APIs and application examples running on STM32 Series GP microcontrollers embedding Type-C and power delivery management (thanks to the embedded UCPD PHY integrated in STM32G4, STM32G0, STM32L5 and STM32U5).
For the other STM32 GP MCU without embedded UCPD PHY (like STM32L4, STM32F0...), this package demonstrates how to comply with Type-C specification.
All the applications available in this package need to have either the TCPP01-M12, the TCPP02-M18 or the TCPP03-M20 integrated.
The TCPP01-M12 (Type-C port protection) is a single chip solution for USB Type-C port protection that facilitates the migration from USB legacy connectors type-A or type-B to USB Type-C connectors.
The TCPP02-M18 (Type-C port protection) is a single chip solution for USB Type-C port protection in the context of Source applications.
The TCPP03-M20 (Type-C port protection) is a single chip solution for USB Type-C port protection in the context of Dual Role Power applications.
STMicroelectronics package has been certified by USB-IF through the reference TID 5205, TID 6408, TID 3036, TID 7884 and TID 8088.
Check the ST web page : USB Type-C and Power Delivery for more details.

This repository has been created using the git submodule command. Please check the instructions below for proper use. Please check also the notes at the end of this section for further information.
- To clone this repository along with the linked submodules, option
--recursivehas to be specified as shown below.
git clone --recursive https://github.com/STMicroelectronics/x-cube-tcpp.git- To get the latest updates, in case this repository is already on your local machine, issue the following two commands (with this repository as the current working directory).
git pull
git submodule update --init --recursive- To use the same package version as the one available on st.com, issue the command below after specifying the targeted
vX.Y.Zversion. This should be done after the command(s) indicated in instruction (1) or in instruction (2) above have been successfully executed.
git checkout vX.Y.Z # Specify the targeted vX.Y.Z version- To avoid going through the above instructions and directly clone the same firmware version as the one available on st.com, issue the command below after specifying the targeted
vX.Y.Zversion.
git clone --recursive --depth 1 --branch vX.Y.Z https://github.com/STMicroelectronics/x-cube-tcpp.gitNote
- The latest version of this firmware available on GitHub may be ahead of the one available on st.com or via STM32CubeMX. This is due to the rolling release process deployed on GitHub. Please refer to this post for more details.
- Option
--depth 1specified in instruction (4) above is not mandatory. It may be useful to skip downloading all previous commits up to the one corresponding to the targeted version. - If GitHub "Download ZIP" option is used instead of the
git clonecommand, then the different submodules have to be collected and added manually.
